Description

The Olymp 5F textile work glove impresses with its improved heat and flame resistance, as well as its high degree of freedom of movement. The high-quality FR aramid outer fabric with ProCoat silicone and carbon coating provides high protection against abrasion and heat. The ergonomically designed, flame-resistant knuckle guard protects against impacts, shocks, and heat. The elastic knuckle guards provide ideal protection against impacts and shocks while offering maximum freedom of movement. The abrasion-resistant Nomex®/Kevlar® palm with PROmarble coating ensures maximum protection and grip, even on slippery and wet surfaces. The flame-resistant Kevlar®/Inox/LCP cut protection coating protects the firefighter from sharp objects and edges (performance level 5F). Thanks to the GORE-TEX CROSSTECH® Grip insert, the Olymp 5F provides a secure barrier against moisture, chemicals, oil, gasoline, blood, and viruses, while maintaining maximum breathability. The liner insert, insert attachment, and connection to the outer layer are carried out according to ESKA's proven patented process to permanently prevent the liner from becoming unintentionally loose. The sophisticated system of two adjustable-width straps allows for a perfect fit over the jacket. The revolutionary new Flap Cuff solution allows for an ideal fit of the glove over the jacket.

All maximum mechanical and thermal values ​​are certified, both new and after a pretreatment of 20 washes at 60°C. The anatomical, layered 3D cut adapts to the natural posture of the hand to ensure the best possible fit and freedom of movement. We rely exclusively on European materials, which are subject to strict quality control in Austria.
