Description
12KV Rubber Insulated Gloves officially known as Class 2 Insulating Gloves, are essential Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) designed for professional electricians and utility workers who encounter medium-to-high voltage hazards. Crafted from natural rubber latex or a specialized dielectric compound, these safety gloves provide a robust, non-conductive barrier, offering primary protection against electrical shock. They are certified to withstand a high Proof Test Voltage and have a specific Maximum Use Voltage, making them indispensable for safe live-working (live line) and maintenance on electrical systems up to 17,000V AC.
Features:
- High Voltage Protection: Class 2 Insulating Gloves certified under ASTM D120 and EN/IEC 60903 standards.
- Max. Use Voltage: Rated for live-working up to 17,000V AC (17kV) and 25,500V DC.
- Dielectric Rubber: Constructed from premium, high-strength natural rubber latex for superior dielectric integrity and flexibility.
- Ergonomic Design: Anatomically shaped to reduce hand fatigue and improve comfort during extended use.
- Flared Gauntlet Cuff: Features a long, flared cuff for easy on/off and vital protection/coverage for the wrist and forearm.
- Ozone/Element Resistance: Available in Type II (Ozone resistant) or Category R (Resistant to Acid, Oil, and Ozone) for enhanced durability.
- Arc Flash Protection: Many models are also Arc Flash rated (e.g., APC 2) when used in combination with leather protectors.
