SIGA PBI 5FLong, water- and virus-proof PBI firefighter glove

The PBI firefighting glove SIGA PBI 5F is the only one on the market with full PBI protection on the backhand and palm. The glove will impress you with the best heat and flame resistance as well as outstanding freedom of movement. The durable PBI fibre on the backhand and palm offers the highest thermal protection and comfort and makes the glove extremely light. The anatomical, fire-resistant knuckle protector ensures absolute shock and impact protection. Additionally, it protects the backhand against exposure to heat and injuries. The abrasion-resistant PBI Gold palm with PROmarble coating provides maximum protection and grip on smooth and wet surfaces. The flame-resistant and cut-resistant lining made of Kevlar®/inox/LCP protects the firefighter against pointed objects and sharp edges (level 4F). Thanks to the GORE-TEX CROSSTECH® Grip insert, Phönix 5F provides a safe barrier against water, chemicals, oil, fuel, blood and viruses and also offers maximum breathability. The inner lining is incorporated and the insert is attached and connected to the outer shell in line with the proven method patented by ESKA in order to permanently prevent the lining from being inadvertently pulled out. The sophisticated, adjustable two-strap system is used to ensure secure fixing, which enables the glove to be worn over a jacket (Siga PBI 5F, long cuff) or under a jacket (Siga-E PBI 5F, knitted cuff). All mechanical and thermal maximum values were achieved both in a new condition and after pretreatment consisting of 20 washes at 60 °C. The anatomical, layered 3D cut is adjusted to the natural posture of our hands, to guarantee the best possible fit and freedom of movement. We use only European materials, which undergo strict quality control in Austria. The gloves for fire-fighters are available in versions with a long cuff (Siga PBI 5F model) or with a 100% Kevlar® knitted cuff (Siga-E PBI 5F model).
