HexArmor Rig Lizard Silicone Grip Heat-Resistant Gloves 2030

The HexArmor 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 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 5 cut-resistance, while a hi-vis lining adds the finishing touches to a glove that can keep you safe in the dark while protecting your hands from abrasion, cuts, tears and heat.

Industry Leading Technology

HexArmor are known for their state-of-the-art work gloves, using innovative and forward thinking technology that has refined the field for what safety gloves should offer. The Rig Lizard Arctic Gloves are no different, using HexArmor's IR-X Impact Exoskeleton to provide outstanding flexibility, while additional padding, impact protection and reinforced stitching protect the hands from a wide range of risks.

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.

SuperFabric Cut Resistance

The Rig Lizard Silicone Grip Gloves offer the highest level of cut-resistance available. This gives you the confidence to undertake high cut-risk tasks without worry about injury, helping to provide peace of mind and improve your productivity. 

The impressive cut resistance level is met by using SuperFabric on the palm. SuperFabric is engineered to deflect industrial puncture hazards such as a wood splinter or wire strand, using a small guard plate to block high risk threats. This impressive material has had exceptional results, proving to reduce hand injury rates when used in a wide range of HexArmor Gloves.

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.

Sizing of the Rig Lizard Silicone Grip Gloves

Wearing the correct size of gloves will provide the most effective level of protection. To find the glove size required, measure the circumference around the knuckles, excluding the thumb. The hand should be open with the fingers together.

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.
