About this file

This is a Material Standard document issued by Seattle City Light, a municipal utility serving the City of Seattle, Washington. The standard specifies requirements for leather protector gloves (also known as keepers) designed for use with Class 2 electrical insulating rubber gloves. The gloves are available in eight sizes ranging from 8 to 12 inches, with corresponding Seattle City Light stock numbers (763353 through 763357). The leather protectors are required to be 12 inches in length, cream or tan in color with a straight cuff design, fluorescent orange on the backside, and made of cowhide with non-metallic buckle and pull strap options. The standard references ASTM F 696 as the applicable industry specification and requires all protectors to comply with its testing and marking requirements. Packaging must include manufacturer identification, part numbers, product descriptions, and SCL stock numbers, while shipping containers must be marked with the purchase order number. The document identifies two approved manufacturers: Kunz Glove Company and Salisbury, each with specific part numbers corresponding to each glove size.

This material standard supersedes the previous version effective October 6, 2025, with a new effective date of February 13, 2026, and is coordinated by Laura Vanderpool, Standards Engineering Supervisor Brett Hanson, and Division Director Bob Risch. The standard is part of a broader solicitation to replace Seattle City Light's current contract 3750, which has an average annual spend of $45,000 for electric utility grade lineman gloves and rubber goods. The material standard emphasizes that leather protectors must be worn over rubber insulating gloves and cannot be used alone for electrical shock protection, with separate standards established for Class 0 gloves under SCL 7634.20. No substitutes for the approved manufacturers are accepted, and all products must meet specified compliance requirements prior to delivery.
