Question 1

What is the BSD HRC 2 Light Arc Flash Gloves designed to do?

Accepted Answer

They are lightweight knit gloves engineered to provide arc flash protection and insulation for hands and fingers, with the ability to be worn as undergloves beneath insulating gloves to improve fit and comfort during high-risk tasks.

Question 2

What standards does this glove set meet for safety?

Accepted Answer

They are tested to meet arc flash safety standards IEC 61482-1-2:2007 (APC 1) and IEC 61482-1-1, as well as heat protection standard EN 407:2004 and mechanical risk standard EN 388:2003.

Question 3

What does the 9.6 Cal/cm2 rating mean for these gloves?

Accepted Answer

The 9.6 Cal/cm2 rating indicates the maximum incident energy level the gloves are designed to withstand in arc flash scenarios, reflecting the level of protection they provide against arc flash exposure.

Question 4

Can these gloves be used as undergloves with insulating gloves?

Accepted Answer

Yes. They are designed to work well as undergloves, helping to improve fit, reduce sweating, and allow for longer wear when used with insulating gloves.

Question 5

What material are these gloves made from and how does that affect fit and comfort?

Accepted Answer

They are made from a soft, pliant knit fabric, which provides a snug, comfortable fit while maintaining dexterity for detailed tasks.

Question 6

In what work scenarios are these gloves particularly suitable?

Accepted Answer

They are ideal for environments with arc flash hazards where lightweight insulation and dexterity are important, and for workers who use insulating gloves for extended periods.

Question 7

How should I wear these gloves with insulating gloves?

Accepted Answer

Put on the BSD HRC 2 Light Arc Flash Gloves first as the underglove, then add your insulating gloves over them to maximize protection, comfort, and moisture management.

Question 8

What additional safety or protection benefits do these gloves offer?

Accepted Answer

Beyond arc flash protection, the gloves provide insulation to help maintain hand warmth, and their knit design aims to balance sensitivity and protection during precise handwork.

Question 9

Are there different sizes or fit considerations I should know about?

Accepted Answer

The gloves are designed with a soft knit fabric for a comfortable, snug fit. Fit may vary with hand size, so choose a size that feels secure without constricting movement.

Question 10

How should these gloves be cared for to maximize lifespan?

Accepted Answer

Keep them clean and dry, and follow standard care for knit fabrics. Avoid excessive heat and rough handling to preserve fabric integrity and protective properties.

Question 11

Can I use these gloves alone for arc flash tasks, or should they always be paired with insulating gloves?

Accepted Answer

For higher protection levels and longer wear, these gloves are intended to be used as undergloves with insulating gloves. They can be worn on their own for lighter tasks, but pairing with insulating gloves is recommended for enhanced safety.
