PIP 10-KAM16 Kut Gard AR/FR Single-Ply ACP / Kevlar Blended Sleeve with Thumb Hole 16" is designed to protect the forearm from heat, abrasion, and cut hazards encountered in metalworking, glass handling, automotive manufacturing, and related maintenance tasks. The sleeve integrates a proprietary ACP/Kevlar blend with a heat attenuation factor (HAF) of 73%, delivering enhanced heat resistance while maintaining flexibility for comfortable wear. This composition provides about double the cut resistance of traditional para-aramid sleeves, contributing to prevention of minor cuts and scrapes during repetitive or sharp-edge handling.
In addition to cut and heat protection, the sleeve offers resistance to abrasion and shrinkage, helping maintain performance over time in demanding environments. It is suitable for wear over clothing or directly on the arm, and features a thumb hole design that extends coverage to the knuckles without compromising dexterity—an important factor when handling small parts, tools, or assemblies. By protecting against dangerous electric arc flashes to a degree consistent with its AR/FR characteristics, the sleeve supports safer operation in mixed-process settings where electrical and thermal risks coexist.
This product is colored in yellow and uses ACP as its lining, with a single-ply construction that balances flexibility and protection. It is sized and packaged as a single item, with a case quantity of 144 each, aligning with workflow needs for stocking and rapid replacement in busy shops. When selecting a shield for arm protection, verify that the sizing and sleeve length (16 inches) match the task requirements and that the garment is compatible with the wearer’s clothing and other PPE, especially in multi-layer environments where sleeve integrity and thumb-hole accessibility matter for safe, precise work.
