Transforming Technologies FG2602, Nomex Static Safe Cleanroom Hot Gloves 11 inch Medium
Transforming Technologies FG2602 Nomex Static Safe Cleanroom Hot Gloves, 11", Medium
The Transforming Technologies FG2602 is a Nomex static-safe cleanroom hot glove designed for handling hot components, soldering irons, reflow oven trays, and heated assemblies in ESD-sensitive environments. Nomex provides excellent heat resistance and flame retardancy while the static-safe construction prevents electrostatic discharge during handling of sensitive electronic components. The 11" length provides wrist and forearm protection, and the medium size suits most users for precision assembly work.
Sold as a pair. Select Standard or Articulating Arm Kit above.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why use Nomex for ESD hot gloves instead of standard heat-resistant gloves?
Standard heat-resistant gloves are often made from materials that can generate or hold static charges, making them unsuitable for ESD-sensitive environments. Nomex (an aramid fiber) provides excellent heat resistance and inherent flame retardancy while the static-safe construction of the FG2602 ensures the glove does not generate harmful electrostatic discharge when handling sensitive electronic components near heated equipment.
What temperature range can the FG2602 handle?
Nomex gloves provide protection against brief contact with hot surfaces and radiant heat in electronics assembly environments, including handling reflow oven trays, soldering iron holders, and hot PCB assemblies. For specific temperature ratings and contact time limits, consult the Transforming Technologies FG2602 product data sheet to ensure the glove meets your application requirements.
What is the difference between the Standard and Articulating Arm Kit options?
The Standard option is the FG2602 glove pair. The Articulating Arm Kit is an accessory that provides a flexible, positionable arm mount for use with compatible equipment — select this option if you need the mounting hardware in addition to the gloves. If you only need the gloves, select Standard.
Is the FG2602 suitable for ISO cleanroom use?
Yes. The FG2602 is designed for use in ESD-sensitive cleanroom environments. Nomex is a low-particulate material suitable for controlled environments. Always verify that the glove meets your facility’s specific cleanroom classification and contamination control requirements before use in critical ISO Class environments.
