PBT Stainless Electric Foil Jacket (washable)

Description Description

Main Material: Fabric laminated with high-density nickel thread (45%). Being stainless, it prevents sweat and moisture from deteriorating its electrical conductivity.
Appearance: Glossy finish.
Interior: Special waterproof fabric lining, designed to prevent sweat from reaching the outer conductive layer and causing false touch registrations.
Durability and Care: Long-lasting model. Withstands washing with water at 30 °C and dry cleaning.
Recommended Use: Ideal for both daily training and official fencing competitions.
Gender: Unisex.

High Nickel content: By using such a high percentage of nickel in its fabric, it resists chemical corrosion from sweat much better compared to budget copper lames.
It is 100% Washable: Unlike old-style lames that could not get wet, this model can be washed (following strict instructions) to remove the sweat salts that insulate electricity.
Cut and Comfort: PBT is famous for its European pattern making. Although it is unisex, it adapts very well to the body, avoiding false folds where the opponent's tip might slip or snag.

⚠️ Golden rule: The worst enemy of a lame is not your rival, it is storing it damp inside the bag.

Immediate drying: When you finish training, never leave it bundled up. Hang it on a plastic hanger (never metal) in a ventilated place out of direct sunlight.
Washing: When it starts to smell bad or you notice that the conductivity test shows high values, wash it by hand or on an ultra-gentle cycle at 30 °C maximum, using neutral soap (no chlorine, no softeners, and no bleach, as they destroy the metal).
Storage: Always store it inside out (with the waterproof lining facing out) to protect the nickel fabric from scratches caused by other cables or weapons inside your fencing bag.
