1. What is the exact level of cut protection offered by this sleeve?

The Tegera 73 sleeve has certification of Level F under the EN ISO 13997 standard, which is the highest category of cut resistance currently available. This makes it essential for high-risk operations, such as handling sharp metal sheets, industrial glass, or components with metal burrs.

2. Is this equipment suitable for long work shifts?

Yes, the design of the Tegera 73 prioritizes ergonomics. It is made with lightweight and breathable materials that allow for prolonged use without causing excessive fatigue or heat buildup, meeting the comfort standards required for intensive industrial environments.

3. Is it certified for use in the food industry?

Indeed. This sleeve is suitable for direct contact with food, making it a versatile technical solution for butchering, industrial cutting, and other food production lines where the worker is exposed to manual cutting tools.

4. What prevents the sleeve from sliding or rolling during movement?

The Tegera 73 incorporates a special ergonomic fastening for the thumb and index finger. This technical detail ensures that the sleeve stays perfectly positioned on the arm, preventing accidental rolling and ensuring that the protection area is always covered during repetitive movements.

5. Is it necessary to combine it with protective gloves?

For comprehensive protection of the upper extremities, it is mandatory to combine the sleeve with an appropriate glove for the task. While the Tegera 73 sleeve protects the forearm, the glove should be selected to protect the hand (preferably also with cut level F), thus ensuring a complete safety barrier against the risk of severe cuts.
