PROTECTION LIMIT
- These products do not contain any substances at levels that are known to, or suspected to, adversely affect user hygiene or health.
- The protection against risks or hazards which are not mentioned in this document is not warranted.
- In the event of accidental contamination like a splash of chemicals or flammable liquids on these products, wearers should withdraw and carefully remove gauntlets/gloves. Contaminated items should be cleaned or replaced.
INTENDED USE
- EN12477 – Type B – Gloves are recommended when high dexterity is required such as for TIG welding.
- EN12477 – Type A – Gloves are recommended for other welding processes.
There is no standardized test method at present for detecting UV penetration of materials for gloves, but the current methods of construction of Protective gloves for Welders do not normally allow the penetration of UV radiation. With Arc welding installations, it is not possible to protect all parts conducting the welding voltage against direct contact, for operational reasons. When gloves are intended for arc welding: these gloves do not provide protection against electric shock caused by defective equipment or live working, and the electrical resistance is reduced if gloves are wet, dirty, or soaked with sweat, this could increase the risk.
WARNINGS
- Additional partial body protection may be required e.g. for welding overhead, or in a knelt position. These Gloves are only intended to protect against brief inadvertent contact with live parts of an arc welding circuit, additional electrical insulation layers will be required where there is an increased risk of electric shock. Gloves are designed to provide protection against short-term, accidental contact with live electric conductors at voltages up to approximately 100 V (D.C.)
- Gloves Should always be worn fully pulled to the lower arm with other body protection tucked in the cuff part of the glove for full protection.
- Wearers should be aware of the risk of entanglement when working near moving parts.
STORAGE AND CLEANING NOTICE
- Keep it in its original packaging, under ordinary temperature and humidity conditions, and in clean, covered, and ventilated premises.
- Both new and used gloves should be inspected thoroughly before being worn, to ensure no damage is present.
- Gloves should not be left in a contaminated condition if re-use is intended and should be cleaned as much as possible using a damp cloth, provided that no serious hazard exists before removing from hands.
- Gloves that are cut, burnt or punctured, or showing signs of fraying must not be used. If in doubt, do not use and seek professional advice.
Scrupulously follow the instructions given below:
In order from left to right: Do not wash | Do not bleach | Do not tumble dry | Do not iron | Do not dry clean.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Place glove over hand fitting the thumb and fingers in the appropriate positions making sure the glove is fitted comfortably to carry out the task in hand. To remove each glove pull the finger part of the gloves away from the hand.
PPE SUBJECT TO AGEING
The design performance cannot be significantly affected by ageing when stored
in appropriate conditions (humidity, temperature, clean, ventilated, and
light).
