Working in extreme heat and environments containing the threat of molten metal splash and spill can be  some of the most dangerous jobs in the world.

Silver Needle has a wide variety of personal protection equipment for the molten metal industry. Aluminized materials offer unique insulation and heat reflective qualities, reflect radiant heat, reduce the flow of convective or ambient heat by 50% or greater, and reduce the high-heat transfer by shedding both ferrous and non-ferrous molten metals splashed on clothing. Garments made from FR9B, Oasis™, or Indura® are not recommended for primary protection but offer excellent secondary protection.  To assist you in making an informed decision about garments made for primary protection we provide fabric test kits. The test simulates a molten splash so you can determine which fabrics will work for your employees under your plant conditions. We can make suggestions, but the decision is yours. Contact us today. We would be happy to send you a test kit.  Call 1-800-863-7733
