Built for Motorsports Service Work
The stretch-knit top supports hand movement, while the layered palm and reinforcement panels add protection in contact and high-wear areas. A wide leather cuff makes the glove easier to put on, and the hook-and-loop closure helps keep the fit secure during active pit and vehicle service work.
Selecting a Size
Choose Small, Medium, Large, XL, or 2X from the product options. Select a size that permits a secure grip and full hand movement without excess material at the fingertips. Confirm fit before beginning work.
Standards and OSHA Hand Protection
Mechanix Wear's declaration lists EN ISO 21420:2020, EN 388:2016+A1:2018 (3133X), and EN 407:2020 (413XXX). Its specification sheet also lists SFI 3.3/1 and ARC 2.22 cal/cm². The sheet does not identify an arc test method or whether this value is ATPV or EBT; no such designation is claimed here.
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.138 requires appropriate hand protection for hazards including thermal burns and harmful temperature extremes. Selection must consider glove performance, the task, working conditions, and duration of use. This is an employer requirement, not OSHA product approval.
SFI Specification 3.3 covers driver accessories. SFI 3.3/1 is a motorsports classification; “Level 1” is not an NFPA 70E arc-flash PPE category.
