Arm Protection

Why Wear Arm Protection?
 
All too often workers are only concerned with hand protection, not realizing that cuts or burns to the arms are unnecessary and preventable. Protective sleeves for your arms eliminate on-the-job hazards and are available in a variety of lengths and styles.
 
What Types of Safety Sleeves Exist?
 
Superior Glove manufacturers a variety of safety sleeves with a variety of materials. This includes Kevlar® sleeves for cuts and burns, Dyneema® sleeves for cut resistance, and Punkban™ for puncture protection, as well as more traditional cotton protective sleeves for light-duty protection.
 
What’s Unique About Superior Glove® Protective Sleeves?
 
On top of the offerings that are now standard in arm protection like optional thumbhole to better secure the sleeve and prevent slippage when reaching up, Superior Glove manufacturers protective sleeves in a variety of lengths. Whether you only require enough protection to keep your forearm safe or you need coverage up to your shoulder, we can provide that.
 
Seeing a market need for more comfortable, form-fitting sleeves, we began developing tapered knit styles, many of which are manufactured in our Newfoundland, Canada plants. These Canadian-made products fit better than the traditional tubular knit style. To prevent these sleeves from slipping down your arm, we have incorporated STAYz-UP™ technology into all of our tapered and some tubular styles to give you more comfortable arm protection that you’ll look forward to wearing.
