Special composition of aramid,
glass and preox (partially
carbonized acrylic) provides
amazing high heat protection and
excellent direct heat resistance.
Carbo-King
material was tested
using a 6-lb steel block heated to
500ºF with direct material contact,
which after 15 seconds offered
25% better thermal protection
than vermiculite-coated fiberglass
at half the material weight. Using
the same testing method, Carbo-
King Max offered 40% better
thermal protection than
vermiculite-coated fiberglass at
a comparable material weight.
Carbo-King
material, when exposed
to the inner cone of a propane
flame (1900 to 2100°F/1038 to
1149°C) for 20 seconds, resisted
burn through, and the temperature
on the oposite side of the fabric
remained under 115°F/46°C with
the temperature probe as close as
1/4'' from the fabric.
Carbo-King
provides excellent
performance without the stiffness
and bulk associated with products
presently on the market.
* The degree of heat
resistance a glove may
offer is directly related
to the duration of
exposure. Consult a
Jomac Canada Industry
Group glove specialist for recommendations. |
