Impacto® Anti-Slash Wrist Supports

        Slash Protection for the Wrist Region

Prevent hand injuries before they occur.

Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS), White Finger Disease and repetitive trauma associated with excessive vibration, shock or impact energy is a significant health problem in industries affecting 1 in 10 workers. This disorder affects the blood vessels, nerves, muscles, and joints of the hand wrist and arm and it's normally caused by excessive, long-term exposure to working with tools that vibrate, or holding materials that are shaking such as a power drill, chainsaw, pneumatic drills, machinery etc. As the symptoms progress, they become irreversible and simple tasks like pouring a glass of water becomes difficult. Prevention is critical to long term hand health and productivity as persistence can cause permanent changes that are increasingly painful and irreversible over time.

These Impacto® fingerless style Anti-Slash Wrist Support is made with 100% KEVLAR® knit and grain leather cover provides abrasion protection. The visco-elastic polymer (VEP) padding in the palm absorbs and dissipates impact and vibration. VEPs are solids that mimic the behavior of liquids, which allows dissipation of shock waves better than any other material. VEP absorbs shock waves in all directions at once, reforming to its original shape at a rate that is slow enough to not exert outward pressure, but fast enough to regain its original shape before the next shock. Hook and loop closure.
