What Are Scandia Sleeve Cones?
Scandia sleeve cones are unique sleeve attachments used to improve the comfort, safety, and usability of immersion suits. The sleeve cones are a sealed interface between the sleeves and gloves, excluding water entry while providing flexibility in movement.
One of the most important characteristics of these sleeve cones is their removable glove system, which provides greater benefits than fixed-glove immersion suits. This system allows users to replace or remove gloves whenever necessary, making it more convenient for various maritime activities.
Key Features and Advantages of Scandia Sleeve Cones
1. Waterproof and Secure Seal
Perhaps one of the most important features of an immersion suit is keeping the water out. Scandia sleeve cones allow for an airtight, watertight seal, not allowing cold water to penetrate into the suit, which assists in body heat conservation and enhanced survival time in a crisis.
2. Detachable Gloves for Convenience
The detachable and attachable nature of gloves means that users can change between different types of gloves based on the activity. For example, sailors can use thermal gloves in cold conditions and dexterous gloves when working on equipment.
3. Increased Durability and Life Span
Scandia sleeve cones are constructed from superior quality, marine-grade materials that are capable of handling tough oceanic conditions. They have a rugged design that decreases wear and tear, thereby lengthening the service life of both the immersion suit and the gloves.
4. Enhanced Comfort and Mobility
Unlike fixed-glove suits, which might be confining, Scandia sleeve cones provide more freedom of movement. This is beneficial for performing critical functions while remaining protected, be it steering a vessel, manipulating rescue gear, or reacting to an emergency.
5. Easy and Rapid Glove Replacement
Gloves deteriorate, become frayed, or get contaminated in marine conditions. With Scandia sleeve cones, it is easy to change gloves without sacrificing the suit integrity. This advantage is useful on long cruises and off-shore activities where new gloves or suits might be difficult to acquire.
6. Safety Compliance
Scandia sleeve cones comply with international maritime and safety regulations, guaranteeing they are safe for use in emergency survival situations. They conform to SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea) standards, making them a safe bet for commercial shipping, fishing, and offshore applications.
