Waterproof layer, heat insulation layer and lining;

--- Increased thermal protection, heat resistance, wear resistance, tear resistance, labeling requirements, chemical resistance, wearability.

Appendix A, Appendix B, Appendix C, Appendix D, Appendix E, Appendix F, and Appendix G of this standard are normative appendices.

This standard was proposed by the Fire Department of the Ministry of Public Security.

The performance of the second type of gloves is medium, and the performance requirements are partly based on European standards.

EN659. The third category of gloves has the highest performance rating, and its performance requirements are based on the American Fire Protection Association standard NFPA1971. In addition to flame retardant in addition to ergonomic requirements, three levels are identified for all performance requirements. In some cases, there are two levels of performance requirements that are the same.
