CLEVELAND—For some jobs, gloves aren’t enough PPE. Workers also need a protective sleeve that shields the rest of the arm and covers the gap at the wrist, where a glove stops and a shirt sleeve begins. The ultimate solution for safety managers and procurement directors is the ability to get the gloves and the sleeve from a single source, purchased together as a hand and arm protection system. This is where Brass Knuckle® excels.

Brass Knuckle is already well-known for offering the most targeted, application-specific glove inventory in the industry. Now, Brass Knuckle® SmartCut™ Sleeve (BKCRS231) complements them all. Sleeves are available in 16 inches or 18 inches of coverage to deliver precisely the extended protection workers need, even when worn with short sleeves. ANSI A2 cut resistance makes it ideal for a wide range of tasks in industrial, manufacturing, and construction environments, including automotive assembly, metal stamping, and handling other sharp or abrasive materials.

Forearm exposure remains a significant injury risk even when gloves are worn. Arm injuries from cuts and abrasions are common in automotive and metal fabrication environments. A hand and arm protection system eliminates exposure gaps while maintaining dexterity.

Brass Knuckle Sleeve is precise protection, not a one-size-fits-all solution. In addition to choosing your length, Sleeve options also include narrow, wide, and extra-wide sizes for comfortable fit, plus variants with a thumbhole and for ambidextrous use.

Constructed from high density polyethylene (HDPE), each sleeve combines lightweight comfort with high strength to help guard against cuts and abrasions without restricting movement. The flexible design bends with the arm for all-day wear, maintaining protection through repetitive motion. The low-friction surface also helps reduce snagging when working around rough materials.
