Radiant heat exposure builds injury risk gradually — until it doesn't. Here's what proper thermal PPE actually prevents.
Radiant heat injuries in foundry and furnace settings often build gradually through repeated low-grade exposure before a single incident causes serious harm. Kevlar and aluminised gear are rated specifically for radiant and contact heat thresholds relevant to these environments, and skipping a rated glove for a 'quick task' is where most incident reports begin. Treat thermal PPE as a fixed requirement, not a judgment call per task.
