PIONEER Leather Red Heat Resist – Double Gauntlet

Description

PIONEER Leather Red Heat Resist – Double Gauntlet

The PIONEER Leather Red Heat Resist – Double Gauntlet is a specialized, ultra-heavy-duty thermal protector engineered for the most extreme high-heat environments in the South African industrial sector. Distinguishing itself with a unique “Double Gauntlet” reinforced cuff system, this glove provides an unprecedented level of forearm protection and structural rigidity. Designed for South African smelters and foundry workers who face constant exposure to intense convective heat and heavy molten splatter, the double-layered construction ensures that the glove remains upright and protective, preventing the cuff from collapsing and exposing the wearer’s arm during critical operations.

Technical Specifications:

• Primary Material: Premium-selection “Supa Red” heat-treated cow split leather.
• Cuff Architecture: Double-layer reinforced gauntlet for superior forearm shielding and durability.
• Internal Lining: Multi-layer wool-fleece lining designed for maximum conductive heat delay.
• Stitching: Fully welted seams stitched with 100% DuPont™ Kevlar® heat-resistant thread.
• Reinforcement: Additional leather patches on the palm and thumb crotch to withstand high-friction tool handling.
• Heat Resistance: Rated for prolonged exposure to radiant heat and high-frequency molten metal splashes.

Compliance & Standards:

• EN 407:2004: 424X4X (Elite ratings for flammability, contact heat, and molten metal resistance).
• EN 388:2016: 4344X (Maximum Abrasion, Tear, and Puncture resistance for heavy industrial use).
• SANS 1228: Fully compliant with South African National Standards for high-risk thermal protection.
• CE Category III: Certified for protection against complex and life-threatening thermal hazards.

Ideal Application: Primary use case includes furnace charging, heavy-duty foundry casting, slag removal, and industrial glass manufacturing within the South African heavy engineering landscape.
