Mechanix Wear S85CJ-06-008 Arc Flash Gloves Ansi A5 Medium

Product Description

The MECHANIX WEAR S85CJ-06-008 is an arc flash and flame-resistant work glove designed for electricians and industrial workers operating in environments with exposure to electrical arc flash hazards and thermal risk. Built on a 13-gauge aramid blended shell, these gloves meet ANSI A5 cut resistance and carry EN 407 Level 4 Thermal Resistance along with Level 2 arc flash protection rated at 12 calories per square centimeter. A neoprene and nitrile coating covers the palm and fingers for grip and abrasion resistance, while anatomically designed flame-resistant TPR knuckle protection meets ANSI 138 Level 2 impact standards. The glove ships as a pair in size Medium for men or Large for women.

The S85CJ-06-008 is suited for electrical maintenance, panel work, and industrial applications where arc flash PPE is required by NFPA 70E or site safety programs. The machine-knit aramid shell provides dexterity alongside protection, making these gloves practical for tasks requiring both hand sensitivity and compliance with arc flash Category 2 PPE requirements. The sandy grip surface on the coated palm and fingers aids tool handling in dry and mildly oily conditions. These gloves are part of the SpeedKnit Flame and Arc Resistant M-Pact S85CJ06 series.

Installation Notes

Arc flash gloves must be selected, inspected, and worn in accordance with NFPA 70E and applicable site safety procedures. Electricians should verify the arc flash incident energy level for the task and confirm the glove rating meets or exceeds that value before energized work. Inspect gloves for cuts, tears, coating separation, or contamination before each use. Do not use damaged gloves in arc flash rated applications.
