Based on the PIG Alpha FDT Glove, the FR version is a high dexterity glove made from flame resistant Nomex® material and leather padded knuckles.
The entire palm is made of heavier duty goat skin leather meaning the FR has better durability over the synthetic suede found on the standard version. The leather is also touchscreen compatible on the trigger finger and thumb.
The more robust materials used in the construction of the FR version make it more suitable for regular use with ropes, however, as with all lightweight protective gloves the trade off between weight, dexterity and durability does mean that these gloves should be considered a consumable item and worn to destruction.
