The Army and Marines Corps have updated the Fuel Handler Coverall to a new two-piece design manufactured from Gore-Tex Pyrad.
Gore-Tex Pyrad is a flame retardant fabric – a self-extinguishing technology that provides durable protection against flash fire exposure while remaining highly breathable, water resistant, and windproof.
This glove by Masley features a GORE-TEX PYRAD shell with a Gore-Tex insert and THERMIUM insulation for extended warmth down to -25F. This voice was designed in response to a 2019 request by Army POL specialists.
If you have ever seen what fuel can do to skin at -20 you are glad to see this. Flash freezing skin is super dangerous and will become more of an issue as Army and USMC do more Arctic missions. I would like to see some form of fuel handling apron and gloves become standard issue for any Arctic based unit or for any unit training in Arctic and Arctic-like conditions.
