What Is Nomex?

Nomex is made up of a number of fibres, and is combined with Kevlar to ensure high temperature resistance. Nomex doesn't melt, meaning that you can use the gloves to protect against burns without risk to your hands.

How Dexterous Are the Scilabub Heat-REsistant Gloves with Burning Resistance?

The gloves are surprisingly dexterous, thanks to the special Nomex fibre that can retain flexibility even in extremely hot conditions. When the gloves get to a certain temperature, they'll start to crust over but will be suitable for use after use. The gloves retain excellent dexterity even when handling hot items.

How Comfortable Are the Nomex Gloves with Burning Resistance?

The Nomex Gloves are designed using double knitted fabric that fits comfortably around the hands. This is designed to ensure that you can use the gloves for extended periods without hand fatigue, as the gloves work with your hands rather than against them.

Where Can I BUy the Shorter Version?

These gloves are available in a shorter version that offers slightly more dexterity. You can find these below:

What is EN 407?

You might have noticed that this product adheres to EN standard EN 407. EN standards ensure that the product you are buying meets the safety standards of the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), the highest standards organisation recognised by and working on behalf of the European Union. To pass any EN standard, a PPE product must undergo some of the most rigorous safety tests around.

There are many EN standards that our gloves adhere to. However, the EN standard that we’re concerned about here is EN 407. EN 407 stands for Protective Gloves Against Thermal Risks, and informs you of your gloves' resistance to burns, contact heat, convective heat, radiant heat and small and large splashes of molten metal.

How Do I read the EN 407 Score?

Reading your EN 407 score is simple, as each hazard will be provided with a score between Level 0 and Level 4. Level 0 means the gloves failed against that particular hazard, and Level 4 means that they provide the best protection possible against that hazard.

Where Can I Find Out More?

This is just a brief overview of EN standard EN 407 so you know where you are standing. For further information, you can see the Heat Safety Introductory Blog that introduces EN 407 in a simple, easy to read article.
