Safety Today Inc. Brass Knuckle® SmartShell™ BKCR4599 heavy-duty protective glove offers wide-ranging protection for extreme jobs. The BKCR4599 provides heavy-duty cut, light-oil and moisture resistance, nontacky slip resistance, and shock-absorbing impact protection-all in an easy-wearing glove. Providing a broad spectrum of protection, the BKCR4599 delivers ANSI level 4 cut resistance in a very breathable, durable, and flexible glove.
On the palm and fingers, the BKCR4599 offers three layers of protection. The liner is an ultra-high-performance polyethylene and spandex composite that delivers heavy-duty cut resistance without bulk. Bonded to that first layer is a gray polyurethane fabric topped with a grippy nitrile surface, a barrier to light-oil or other light-liquid penetration. In critical areas of the palm, padding provides impact resistance. www.safetytoday.com, 800-263-1251

(TNS) - The City Council on Tuesday will consider approving the purchase for the Alameda Fire Department of two water tenders, equipment that first responders say can help them tackle large fires after an earthquake or other major disaster.
The department has already budgeted the approximately $799,000 needed to pay for the two 2016 Pierce-Kenworth water tenders from Pierce Manufacturing, which has supplied all of the department's fire apparatuses since 1991. The tenders are a type of tanker truck designed specifically for transporting water from a water source to a fire scene.
The city's existing fire boat, which can provide up to 2,000 gallons of water per minute, would supply salt water from the Oakland Estuary or San Francisco Bay to the tenders during an emergency. Along with using the fire boat, sites are being established around the city where the tenders could pull water directly from the bay, Alameda fire Chief Doug Long said in a background report for the council.
"A minimum of two tenders are necessary to work concurrently to provide a system of constant water supply," Long said. "As one is supplying water at the fire incident, the other would be refilling at the fire boat or drafting site."
