PIONEER Leather Green Reinforced Palm – Gauntlet

Description

PIONEER Leather Green Reinforced Palm – Gauntlet

The PIONEER Leather Green Reinforced Palm – Gauntlet is an ultra-durable thermal and mechanical protector engineered specifically for the high-friction environments of South African heavy engineering and metal fabrication. By integrating a secondary layer of premium green split leather across the palm and thumb crotch, this glove addresses the primary failure points in high-volume welding and material handling. This reinforcement not only extends the service life of the glove under extreme abrasive stress but also provides an additional thermal buffer, making it the preferred choice for South African technicians handling heavy steel sections and high-temperature workpieces over extended shifts.

Technical Specifications:

• Primary Material: High-grade “Industrial Green” split cow leather for superior heat stability and wear resistance.
• Palm Reinforcement: Double-layered leather palm patch for maximum protection against friction and puncture.
• Cuff Design: 200mm (8-inch) safety gauntlet providing extensive coverage for the wrist and lower forearm.
• Internal Lining: Full-length soft cotton-fleece lining to absorb perspiration and insulate against conductive heat.
• Stitching: Reinforced with 100% DuPont™ Kevlar® heat-resistant thread to prevent seam charring and burst.
• Seam Protection: Fully welted seams throughout the finger and palm construction to shield thread from molten slag.

Compliance & Standards:

• EN 407:2004: 413X4X (High ratings for flammability, contact heat, and resistance to small molten metal splashes).
• EN 388:2016: 4444X (Maximum Abrasion, Tear, and Puncture resistance for the most demanding labor).
• SANS 1228: Fully compliant with South African National Standards for heavy-duty welding and industrial safety.
• CE Category II: Certified for protection against intermediate thermal and mechanical risks.

Ideal Application: Primary use case includes high-volume MIG/Arc welding, heavy-duty metal grinding, structural steel handling, and furnace operations in South African mining and construction sectors.
