KarboTECT 950 heat resistant glove

Honeywell KarboTECT 950 heat resistant glove

Moving kiln shelves, taking warm pieces out of the kiln or sorting kiln furniture: in the pottery studio, you regularly deal with warm and hot parts. The KarboTECT 950 from Honeywell is a heat resistant glove made of para aramid, carbon and wool. According to the manufacturer, it is designed for dry contact heat and protects against contact heat up to 250 °C.

The glove is made of heavy knit and fits closely, so you can still grip well despite the heat protection. A wool inner glove provides comfort. It is ambidextrous, so each glove fits both the left and the right hand.

Highlights

• Contact heat up to 250 °C according to the manufacturer
• High cut resistance according to the manufacturer

Which size?

Size 7 usually fits smaller and medium hands, size 9 medium to large hands and size 10 large hands. A glove that is too big slips and makes a secure grip harder, so if in doubt, choose the smaller size.

Important safety information

• Read and follow the manufacturer's information before use.
• According to the manufacturer, designed for dry contact heat. Only use it dry: a damp glove conducts heat much faster, and there is a risk of scalding from steam.
• Only touch hot parts briefly and set them down quickly.
• Do not use for raku firing, opening a hot kiln or contact with flames and glowing parts.
• The short knitted cuff does not protect the forearms.
• Check for holes and wear before each use. Do not use damaged gloves.
