Fuel Handler Glove (FH)

Description

Fuel Handlers Glove
An alternative to the traditional rubber fuel handlers glove and the non-barrier gloves often worn by fuel handlers such as the traditional flyers glove and the light duty glove, the Masley Fuel Handlers Glove is a comfortable and tactile fitting glove with a full barrier lining for resistance to POL’s (petroleums, oils and lubricants). The outer shell is constructed of flame- resistant simplex knit and POL and flame-resistant leather. The inside lining is a combination moisture management brush knit for wicking sweat away from the hand and a fully sealed breathable barrier for resistance to POL’s. The fuel gloves shell pattern has concealed (in-seam) stitching for durability. A gauntlet increases the length to the mid forearm. A strap and buckle fastener is located on the back for cinching at the wrist.
