Description
Frosters Gaiters Protecting Against Cryogenic Spills & Splashes
• Manufactured in England using the same materials as our gloves, aprons & suits
• Widely used in the oil and gas industry for protection against spills and splashes of ultra-cold / cryogenic materials including Liquid Nitrogen & LNG
• Superb insulation needs less thickness giving more maneuverability
• Synthetic fibre outer for flexibility
The Gaiters offer the same technology and Category III protection as that of the Frosters Cryogenic Gloves and Suits. The gaiters offer optimum protection for the lower legs and feet against the effects of spills and splashes of cryogenic material including Liquid Nitrogen & LNG. The high efficiency insulation reduces bulk and the design ensures excellent air flow.
The outer layer, of royal blue, woven polyamide, has a waterproof coating to resist condensed water on cold surfaces. However, it should be noted that the stitch holes are not sealed (to reduce bulk) and, whilst this could allow liquid ingress, it has not been found to be a problem in normal use.
The middle layer is of special polyolefin/polyester micro-fibre, which is almost twice as effective in thermal insulation as a similar thickness of down. This minimises heat transfer without being so thick as to be cumbersome. The inner layer is polyester for comfortable wear.
Velcro fastening.
