PIP 10-KAM12 Kut Gard AR/FR single-ply ACP/Kevlar blended sleeve with a thumb hole is designed to protect the forearm from heat, abrasion, and minor cuts while providing arc flash resistance in demanding industrial settings. The sleeve blends aramid fibers with an ACP matrix to yield a Heat Attenuation Factor (HAF) of 73%, improving heat tolerance compared with standard para-aramid sleeves. It offers cut resistance that helps guard against incidental nicks and scrapes, and its abrasion- and shrink-resistant construction helps maintain performance through repeated use and laundering. The thumb-hole design enables protection to the knuckle without limiting dexterity, making it suitable for tasks that require precise hand movements. The sleeve is color-coded in yellow and is intended to be worn over clothing or directly on the arm for versatile layering under other PPE.
In practice, this sleeve supports jobs across sheet metal work, stamping, glass handling, high-heat areas, electrical repair and maintenance, automotive manufacturing, and plastic molding. These applications benefit from the combination of cut resistance, heat attenuation, and arc-flash protection characteristics described, which can help minimize exposure to common industry hazards in environments where heat and sharp-edged materials are present. When selecting sizing and fit, operators should consider whether to wear the sleeve over clothing or directly on the arm, as the thumb-hole design influences fit and dexterity. The product is packaged per individual sleeve, with case quantities of 144 sleeves, which can affect stocking and replenishment decisions for maintenance programs.
