Wear these protectors over electrical-protection gloves to meet ASTM standards when working with live electrical equipment. They also protect your gloves from scrapes and tears.

Choose protectors that are the same size as the gloves they will be worn over. To comply with ASTM standards, the cuff of the glove should extend past the end of the protector. For Class 00 and Class 0 ratings, the gloves must be at least 1/2" longer than the protector. For all other classes, the number of inches that the glove extends past the protector should match the class number. For example, Class 1 gloves should be 1" longer than their protector.

Prevent damage to your electrical-protection gloves and sleeves when they’re not in use. These bags have reinforced threads for added durability. Clip them to your belt with the snap hook to keep gloves and sleeves close at hand.

Pair these sleeves with electrical-protection gloves for full arm coverage when working near equipment running at 17,000V AC or higher. Rated to ASTM D1051 standards for handling live electrical equipment, these sleeves come tested and marked with the test date. You have one year from the test date to put sleeves into service before they must be retested. Once in use, sleeves should be tested every six months. All have a colored inner layer that shows through as the coating wears down, helping you spot cracks, pinholes, and other signs of damage.

ASTM defines voltage classes for rubber insulating sleeves. Make sure the sleeves and gloves you use are rated for the voltage class of your equipment.
