Swift Water Rescue Gloves

The Cestus 2006-L Swift Water Rescue Gloves are personal protective equipment built for professionals operating in fast-moving water. Flexible TPR impact shields guard fingers down to pinch points while a hard-shell polycarbonate layer protects knuckles from crushing hazards. High-visibility neoprene provides wind resistance and breathability when dry and a thermal buffer when wet. A cut level-five Slashweave palm layer reduces laceration risk in debris-filled environments.

Designed for rescue teams needing grip

These gloves suit rescuers who require secure handling on wet, slippery surfaces and defence against unseen underwater debris. The Skid-X palm coating delivers the grip control essential for rope work and victim extraction. Buyers who need a lighter glove for dry-land search tasks or who prioritise maximum fingertip sensitivity over impact armour should consider a different style. The construction targets the specific thermal and mechanical demands of swift water scenarios.

Cut level-five palm with reinforced impact zones

The Slashweave base layer meets ANSI Cut A5 performance for slash resistance across the palm. TPR shields and the polycarbonate knuckle guard absorb repeated impacts from rocks and structure. Neoprene insulation maintains hand function during prolonged cold-water immersion. The gloves are not intended for heavy abrasion tasks such as rope rappelling or handling sharp metal edges beyond the rated cut level.

Questions about this item

What wrist or forearm protection do I already need to pair with the high-vis neoprene cuff on the Cestus 2006-L?

The high-vis neoprene cuff provides wind resistance and a thermal buffer when wet, so no separate wrist or forearm layer is required for basic cold-water use.

Will the Skid-X Rough Out Coarse palm grip a worn rescue rope or carabiner as well as a new one?

The Skid-X palm is designed for grip control in wet, debris-filled conditions and maintains traction on both new and aged rope or hardware surfaces.

How can I confirm the ANSI Cut A5 palm layer is still effective after repeated water exposure?

The Slashweave palm retains its cut-level-five rating when wet; inspect for visible fibre damage or thinning after each deployment to verify ongoing protection.
