If a lithium-ion battery is damaged or thermal runaway ends up there, the temperature inside can rise to extremely high levels in a very short time. This can result in smoke, flames, and intense heat.
When it is necessary and safe to move a battery or device in accordance with applicable safety procedures, appropriate personal protective equipment is essential.
The LithiumSafe™ Li-ion Gloves have been specifically designed for these situations. The gloves are made from a combination of Kevlar® and leather and are heat-resistant up to 1,000 °C.
The design is suitable for direct contact with flames and provides thermal insulation during interventions involving lithium-ion batteries.
With a 40 cm long cuff In addition, the gloves provide protection for the hands, wrists, and forearms. At the same time, the flexible design allows for sufficient freedom of movement to handle batteries, battery packs, and portable electronic devices.
Among other things, the gloves can be used to move a damaged or overheated battery to a suitable LithiumSafe™ Containment Solution to move.
MOST IMPORTANT BENEFITS
Heat-resistant up to 1,000 °C
The LithiumSafe™ Li-ion Gloves are designed for extreme temperatures and offer heat resistance up to 1,000 °C, which is essential in incidents where lithium-ion batteries can reach high temperatures very quickly.
Kevlar® and leather
The combination of Kevlar® and leather provides a strong, durable construction with thermal protection. The gloves are suitable for situations where direct contact with flames may occur.
40 cm long cuff
The extra-long 40-cm cuff not only protects the hands but also provides additional protection for the wrists and forearms during an intervention.
Designed for battery incidents
The gloves are specifically designed for handling overheated, smoking, damaged, or burning lithium-ion batteries and can be used in conjunction with LithiumSafe™ containment solutions.
Technical specifications
The LithiumSafe™ Li-ion Gloves are designed for professional response operations in which extreme heat may result from an incident involving a lithium-ion battery.
The gloves are made of Kevlar® and leather and can withstand temperatures up to 1,000 °C (1,832 °F). The design is suitable for direct contact with flames and provides thermal insulation when handling hot batteries, battery packs, and electronic devices.
The 40 cm long cuff ensures that not only the hands but also the wrists and forearms are protected. Despite this extended protection, sufficient flexibility is maintained to allow for controlled handling of objects.
The gloves come in universal size 10 and are designed for professional environments where lithium-ion batteries are used, stored, maintained, or processed.
They are particularly well-suited for use as part of an emergency response procedure in which a damaged or overheated battery is safely transported to a facility equipped to handle it. containment solution must be moved.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
Protect. Handle. Safely contain.
In the event of an incident involving a lithium-ion battery, the temperature can rise sharply within seconds. When a battery or portable device needs to be moved safely, LithiumSafe™ Li-ion Gloves help protect the user from the resulting heat.
The combination of Kevlar® and leather forms a heat-resistant barrier, while the 40-centimeter-long cuff provides additional protection for the wrists and forearms.
This allows a trained user, when the situation and safety procedures permit, to handle an overheated or damaged battery or device and move it to a suitable LithiumSafe™ Containment Solution move.
The gloves are a form of personal protective equipment and are not a substitute for safe intervention procedures, additional personal protective equipment, or an appropriate containment and fire safety solution.

Part of a broader safety strategy
The LithiumSafe™ Li-ion Gloves are a a layer of personal protection within a broader safety strategy for lithium-ion batteries.
The first step remains prevention: using, charging, and storing batteries safely, and identifying damaged or abnormal batteries as early as possible.
If a battery overheats, starts to smoke, or is damaged, detection, containment, and appropriate fire-fighting measures can help prevent or control further escalation.
When human intervention is necessary and can be carried out safely in accordance with the applicable procedure, the LithiumSafe™ Li-ion Gloves additional protection against the extreme heat that can result from a lithium-ion battery incident.
In combination with, for example, the LFIM® Fire Intervention Mask and a suitable LithiumSafe™ Containment Solution This results in a layered approach in which personal protection, intervention, and containment complement one another.
For example, the LithiumSafe™ Li-ion Gloves help professionals to to be better prepared and protected when a lithium-ion battery incident occurs.
