Knitted HPPE arm sleeves for the forearm, wrist and upper arm. Sold as a matched extension of our cut-resistant glove range so a buyer can protect the arm with the same level, the same test method and the same label logic as the glove they already buy.
A cut-resistant sleeve is a small, cheap item that people put on their arms and then cut themselves with. The whole value of the product is in the yarn and in the proof that the yarn performs. Everything else — the cuff, the length, the binding — is convenience.
So we start from the label sewn into the cuff. The one photographed here carries the CE mark and the EN 388 level 5 shield, together with the manufacturer identification and a traceability code. That label is what your customer's technical buyer will check first, and it is what we photograph for every pre-shipment inspection.
The sleeve in this photograph is a knitted HPPE (HP) construction with a black elasticated cuff and thumb opening, carrying CE and EN 388 level 5 marking. We supply it in the same level range as our gloves — A through F — so a customer can specify one level across glove and sleeve. Test reports and a declaration of conformity ship with the goods. The exact model, article number and report reference for your order are confirmed on the quotation, once we have your specification.
Supplied in the same cut levels as the glove range, in the lengths and cuff styles that the work actually calls for.
Most cut injuries in metal and glass handling happen to the forearm, not the hand. A glove protects the hand; the unprotected wrist and forearm are the exposed part. Buyers who have had an incident usually find that the glove was never the problem. Specifying glove and sleeve at the same level, from the same report, removes that argument at the specification stage instead of the accident stage.
Because the sleeve comes from the same material and the same test programme as the gloves, you can put both in a single purchase order and receive a single consolidated test report and a single Declaration of Conformity covering both. For a distributor building a PPE catalogue, that removes a second supplier, a second audit and a second document set from your file.
Tell us what the arm is exposed to, how sharp it is, and how long the sleeve needs to be. We will return a specification with the standard code, the marking that should appear on the cuff label, and the documents that will ship with the order.
