BSD HRC 4 Arc Flash Gloves, 45Cal/Cm2, Black,1Pair/pack

These gloves have been arc flash tested per IEC 61482-1-1, certified at IEC 61482-1-2:2007 class 2, and carry EN 388:2003 (mechanical risks) and EN 407:2004 (thermal risks). They also note a higher test level of W(LBP)=630 kJ for added reassurance.

They feature a soft, flexible leather exterior with a double-textile back, designed to maximize dexterity and tactile feel while maintaining high safety. The leather and construction aim to balance protection with control during delicate tasks.

Sizes are based on standard hand measurements (often around palm circumference and length). To choose the right fit, measure your dominant hand’s palm circumference and from base of the palm to the tip of the middle finger, then compare with the size chart provided by Fepy. If you’re between sizes, consider the tighter size for better dexterity or the larger size if you need a liner.

They’re suited for electrical maintenance, switchgear work, panel assembly, cable termination, and other environments with arc flash and thermal hazards where high protection and precision are required.

Put on the gloves ensuring there are no tears or punctures. Check the leather for any signs of damage and ensure a proper snug fit for dexterity. When working in high‑risk areas, pair with appropriate outer sleeves or additional protection as recommended by your safety program, and follow your site’s lockout/tagout procedures.

Clean with a mild soap and water solution, rinse, and allow to air dry away from direct heat. Avoid harsh solvents and high heat, and store in a cool, dry place. Periodically inspect for wear or damage and replace if any compromise is found to maintain protection.

For higher‑protection options, you can explore BSD HRC 6 Arc Flash Gloves (60 cal/cm²) at https://fepy.com/products/bsd-hrc-6-arc-flash-gloves-60cal which offer greater protection for extremely high hazard levels. Another alternative is arc-flash gloves rated around 40 cal/cm² at https://fepy.com/products/arc-flash-gloves-40cal for situations with slightly lower energy requirements.

Yes. For example, BSD HRC 2 Arc Flash Gloves (22 cal/cm²) are available at https://fepy.com/products/bsd-hrc-2-arc-flash-gloves-22cal and BSD HRC 5 Arc Flash Gloves (50 cal/cm²) at https://fepy.com/products/bsd-hrc-5-arc-flash-gloves-50cal, offering a range of protection levels to match job hazards.

Fepy generally allows returns within the applicable window for unused items in their original packaging. If you’re unsure about fit or suitability, you can initiate a return within the policy terms provided by Fepy’s returns framework.

Assess the arc flash hazard energy of the task. If your operation’s incident energy is near or above 45 cal/cm², these gloves are appropriate. When in doubt, choose a higher rating to provide a safety margin, and consult your site’s safety officer or PPE guidelines to verify the required ATPV for the specific task.

Look for confirmation of IEC 61482-1-1/1-2 testing, EN 388 and EN 407 ratings for mechanical and thermal protection, and any supplementary tests (like the higher W(LBP) energy level). Also consider leather quality, dexterity, and back‑finish features that affect both safety and precision in real work.
