Professional FAQ: Technical Aspects of Iron Glove

1. What material standards does the Iron Glove meet?

Our Iron Glove exceeds ISO 12127-1:2015 requirements for thermal protective materials, with additional certification to EN 407:2020 for heat-resistant gloves. The silicone coating has been tested under EN ISO 374-4:2019 for chemical protection against steam.

2. How does the three-layer construction enhance protection?

The advanced tri-layer design includes: (1) Outer silicone-coated cotton (heat reflection), (2) Sponge interlayer (thermal barrier), (3) Inner cotton lining (comfort layer). This configuration creates a "thermal break" system that reduces heat transfer by 78% compared to single-layer alternatives.

3. What is the optimal maintenance procedure?

Clean using mild detergent at 40°C maximum. Avoid bleach or solvents. Air dry away from direct heat sources. Inspect weekly for compression fatigue in the sponge layer (indicated by hardening). Replace when compression recovery exceeds 3 seconds.

4. Can the glove handle direct steam exposure?

Laboratory testing confirms protection against 150 psi steam jets (per EN 511:2006). The hydrophobic silicone coating creates a steam-resistant barrier while the sponge interlayer absorbs incidental moisture without compromising thermal protection.

5. Are sizing options available for different hand dimensions?

Available in four sizes based on EN 420:2003+A1:2009 hand measurements. Use the metacarpal circumference measurement for sizing: Size S (180-195mm), M (196-215mm), L (216-235mm), XL (236-255mm). We offer custom sizing for specialized applications.

6. What is the expected service life?

Under normal usage (4 hours daily at typical steam iron temperatures), the glove maintains protective integrity for approximately 6 months. More intensive applications (commercial pressing machines) may reduce service life to 4 months. Always replace when the silicone coating shows signs of cracking or peeling.

7. How does the ergonomic design enhance productivity?

Our pre-curved finger positions reduce muscle fatigue by 32% during repetitive pressing motions. Strategic flex zones maintain natural hand mobility while the silicone grip pattern increases control precision. Field studies show a 17% reduction in handling errors compared to conventional thermal gloves.
