How Does the Chainsaw Protection Work?
If the chainsaw comes into contact with chainsaw protected clothing, then it rips out bundles of long and tough fibres which wrap themselves around the saw, clogging it and bringing it to a standstill. This clever design could be potentially life or limb saving in the event of an accident involving a chainsaw where normal clothing will not stand a chance against the fast-moving blades.
Where Do These Trousers Provide Protection?
These trousers are certified to EN 11393 Class 1 Type C have a significant amount of protection compared to Type A and Type B trousers. The additional protection covers the whole leg 360° around ending so that the backs of your thighs and calves receive the same exceptional protection that the front of your legs do. This extra security could be life-saving.
