Quick Overview

These gloves are designed for professionals conducting rappelling, abseiling, or technical rope work. Their primary function is to protect the user's hands from friction-induced heat and rope burns while providing impact protection and a secure grip during controlled descents.

Field Application Steps

  1. Perform a full visual and tactile inspection of the palms, stitching, and wrist closure before every deployment.
  2. Don the gloves and secure the hook-and-loop strap for a snug, non-slip fit that does not impede circulation.
  3. Utilize the reinforced palm as the primary control surface for managing rope friction and descent speed.
  4. Use the padded knuckles and fingers to protect against impacts with structures or environmental hazards.
  5. Conduct a post-operation inspection and remove the gloves from service permanently if any hole, tear, or seam failure is found.
