The Superior Glove Contender Sleeve KGC1T18 is an 18-inch tapered knit sleeve designed to extend arm protection for workers in automotive assembly, welding, and metal handling environments. Crafted from a blend of para-aramid and composite filament fiber yarn, this sleeve provides elevated cut resistance while maintaining flexibility for comfortable wear over the forearm. The design includes Stayz-Up armbands to help keep the sleeve in place and a thumbhole to prevent shifting during movement, with a tapered profile aimed at improving wearer comfort during long shifts.
Key construction features include a flame-resistant yarn blend that resists burning, dripping, or melting under typical exposure scenarios associated with its intended uses. The sleeve comes in a yellow and black speckle color pattern, a silicone-free composition, and a 36-gauge construction. It is offered without a cuff and is ANSI Cut Level A4 with ANSI puncture and abrasion levels rated at 2, providing a defined level of protection while leaving room for task-specific adjustments. Each package contains one pair, and case quantities are 108 pairs per case, which supports stocking for multiple workstations or teams.
When selecting this sleeve, consider its lack of EN388 certification as a potential factor for compliance reviews and ensure compatible ensemble choices do not introduce gaps in arm coverage. The sleeve is intended to be used with other PPE as part of a broader protection strategy and should be inspected regularly for wear, especially at the thumbhole and armband areas. For ordering convenience, a spec sheet is available, and you can verify sizing, stocking, and compatibility with your workflow through The Safety Source.
