HexArmor 2030 Rig Lizard Silicone Grip Heat-Resistant Gloves

HexArmor 2030 Rig Lizard Silicone Grip Heat-Resistant Gloves 2030 use a silicone grip which has the dual purpose of providing an exceptional level of grip and offering resistance to 250°C of contact heat, making them ideal for dry, high heat-risk jobs such as fabrication and glass handling. SuperFabric embedded into the inner lining helps the gloves to achieve the maximum Level F cut-resistance and a hi-vis lining adds the finishing touches, keeping you safe and seen in the dark.

What's Included?

• 1 x Pair of Heat Resistant Gloves

Sizing of the Rig Lizard Silicone Grip Gloves

To find your perfect size, simply measure the circumference of your palm (ignoring the thumb area) and the length of your hand as indicated in the image below. Once you have your measurements, please consult the sizing chart below to find the correct size for your hand.

Protection Ratings

EN 388

• EN 388: 4X32FP

EN 388 is a European regulation governing the sale of gloves used for safety and protection. It determines the gloves' performance when used for protection against mechanical machinery by measuring the fabric's abrasion, cut, tear and puncture resistance.

The EN 388 cut resistance test uses a single sharp implement to repeatedly pressure a glove in order to determine the amount of force required to cause visible and functional damage.

EN 407

• X2XXXX

EN 407 is a European safety regulation governing the sale of gloves and garments that are resistant to any number of fire, heat and molten related hazards. Please view the table below to find out more:

Industry Leading Technology

HexArmor are known for their state-of-the-art work gloves. They manufacture gloves using innovative and forward thinking technology that has refined the entire safety glove field. Rig Lizard Arctic Gloves are no different. Using HexArmor's IR-X Impact Exoskeleton, they provide outstanding flexibility whilst adding additional padding, impact protection and reinforced stitching. Please view the image below to see how this targeted protection can help protect your hands.

The thumb, index finger and thumb saddle are protected by an IR-X guard, meaning that your hands will stay safe while grippy and handling rough objects and materials. Despite all of this extra protection, outstanding sensitivity and flexibility give you total control when picking up goods and materials. This is perfect in more intricate high-risk tasks such as those found in mechanics, engineering and maintenance.

Level F Cut Resistance

Frequently scuffing, cutting or grazing your hands at work? Level F cut resistance is the difference between sharp, abrasive material cutting straight through your hand and it becoming lodged between the seriously cut-resistant fibres that make up your glove.

Impact Protection

Impact protection stops bumps, impacts and constant contact shattering your fingers when handling incredibly dense, heavy material. A necessity for bricklayers, builders and construction workers, impact protection is a commonly overlooked protection that helps to prevent and mitigate serious injury. 

Stay Safe, Stay Seen

Staying seen on site is vital. If you aren't visible, you aren't safe. High visibility gloves may seem like a minor addition to a high visibility workwear uniform, but they can make a massive difference in dimly lit areas.

Silicone Grip Offers Heat Resistance

The SIlicone Grip Gloves use a special silicone grip that is designed to improve your grip and offer excellent protection against heat. Level 2 contact heat resistance protects the hands from temperatures up to 250°C, making them well suited to high heat-risk industries such as fabrication, foundry and glass handling.

What is EN 388?

You might have noticed that this product adheres to EN standard EN 388. 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 388. EN 388 stands for Mechanical Resistance, and informs you of your gloves' resistance to abrasion, cuts, tears and punctures.

How Do I Read the EN 388 Score?

Simply speaking, the higher the score that this product achieves, the better the product will be at resisting that hazard. Products will score between Level 0 and Level 4 for abrasion, tears and punctures, and if they weren’t tested for that hazard you will see N/A written instead of a number.

Cuts are a little different and, with the EN 388 standard rewritten in 2016, it means that gloves will either be tested to cut resistance or ISO cut resistance (sometimes called TDM cut resistance). Gloves tested to cut resistance will score between Level 0 and Level 5, and gloves tested to ISO cut resistance will achieve a score between Level A and Level F with the higher letter offering better cut protection.
