Title: Gloves, Protective, Flame-resistant


Last Updated: 9/23/2018 8:09:52 PM

Previous SEL Number: 01ZA-02-GLVF

Description: Flame-resistant gloves that provide the wearer's fingers, hands, and wrists with protection from flash fires and short duration exposure to high heat, while still providing the wearer with sufficient dexterity to meet mission requirements (certified as compliant with ANSI /ISEA 105).

ImportantFeatures: Flame-resistant gloves are constructed of different single-layer or multilayer intrinsically flame resistant materials. The gloves should extend at least 2 inches (50 mm) beyond the wearer's wrist crease and utilize a design that does not inhibit hand function. Gloves may be certified to NFPA 2112.

Operating Considerations: Gloves in this category should be tested, classified, and marked in accordance with ANSI /ISEA 105 for ignition resistance and burning, heat degradation resistance, conductive heat resistance, dexterity, and meet performance level 3 in each performance area. Alternatively, gloves can be certified to NFPA 2112. These gloves should not be used for handling hazardous materials or for operations where sustained exposure to high heat or flame may occur, such as fire fighting operations. Other protective clothing worn should also be flame resistant. Use gloves in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.138.
