Equipment Analysis

Extended Arm Protection for High-Risk Applications

The Portwest A690 45cm Cut-Resistant HPPE Grey Sleeve provides superior extended defense for the wrist and forearm against severe cuts, slashes, and abrasions. Woven from high-performance polyethylene (HPPE), this 45cm protective sleeve ensures maximum coverage and mechanical safety. It is a critical component for workers in glass manufacturing, sheet metal fabrication, and industrial assembly lines.

Ergonomic Seamless Comfort and Stability

Engineered with a 13-gauge seamless knit liner, this protective sleeve offers a highly breathable, flexible, and lightweight feel that adapts comfortably to the arm. The built-in thumbhole secures the sleeve in position, preventing it from sliding down or exposing the wrist during rigorous overhead tasks. Its low-linting yarn formulation prevents cross-contamination, making it highly suitable for precision manufacturing and clean handling zones.

Industrial Applications

  • Glass Handling & Processing: Crucial extended arm armor when moving large, sharp panes of glass.

  • Metal Fabrication: Shields the forearms from dangerous burrs, razor-sharp edges, and metallic stampings.

  • Automotive Assembly: Protects workers from scrapes and pinches when reaching into deep mechanical spaces.

  • Waste Management & Recycling: Provides robust skin protection against sharp mixed materials and debris.
