Equipment Analysis

High-Visibility Extended Dual Hazard Arm Protection

The Portwest A690 45cm HPPE Yellow Heat and Cut-Resistant Sleeve is expertly engineered to provide exceptional forearm and wrist safety in high-risk manufacturing and assembly environments. This 45cm sleeve combines critical cut defense with contact heat resistance, safeguarding skin against diverse industrial hazards. Its striking fluorescent yellow color increases worker visibility and simplifies safety compliance monitoring on busy work floors.

Advanced Thermal Defense and Ergonomic Design

Woven with high-performance polyethylene (HPPE), this protective sleeve guards against structural slices, punctures, and abrasions while resisting contact heat up to 100°C. The 13-gauge seamless knit configuration creates a lightweight, highly breathable fit that minimizes sweating and skin irritation. Designed with an integrated thumbhole, it remains firmly anchored in place to prevent the fabric from riding up or exposing sensitive skin during overhead movements.

Industrial Applications

  • Glass Manufacturing: Protects forearms against extreme slicing hazards when moving wide panels.

  • Metal Fabrication & Stamping: Shields skin from hazardous metallic burrs, sparks, and raw edges.

  • Automotive Assembly: Prevents heat and abrasion injuries when reaching into tight, warm engine components.

  • Industrial Maintenance: Ensures all-day arm comfort and enhanced hand-signaling safety in dim areas.
