• + = 12% Extra Protection (ie: calf coverage)
• 20 = Passes EU Cut Test, Class 1 @ 20m/sec

Approved by:

* The traditional design B of the Standard EN 381-5, was chosen by the SA Forestry Industry, backed by FESA and SABS due to the femoral artery protection in both the left and right leg. Should a chainsaw operator sustain a cut to the femoral artery, they could bleed to death within seconds.

** Studies quantified in the SA Chainsaw Safety and Operating Handbook (produced by FESA & ICFR), reveal that 12% of leg injuries occur in the calf area. Only our B+ range offers both EU certification and calf protection.
