MoG Fast Rope Tactical 9165 Gloves
The MoG Fast Rope Tactical 9165 gloves were developed together with the Instruction Group Rotary Wing of the Royal Dutch Army for professional fast roping and immediate tactical follow-up actions. This “rope-to-gun” glove is specifically designed for users who need reliable grip and heat protection on the rope, while still maintaining the dexterity required for weapon handling, radio operation and equipment manipulation immediately after touchdown.
The gloves combine a slim-fit finger construction with a multi-layer palm and split leather top layer, offering strong grip, protection against friction heat buildup and increased mechanical durability. The back of hand uses breathable 4-way stretch fabric with partial neoprene coverage over the knuckle area for soft impact protection and wearing comfort.

What the Ratings Mean
EN 388: 4323X = abrasion resistance 4, cut resistance 3, tear resistance 2, puncture resistance 3, TDM cut test not rated
EN 407: X2XXXX = contact heat protection level 2
The claimed contact heat protection applies to the palm and fingers. These gloves do not provide flame protection and must not be exposed to open flame.
These gloves are intended for professional and tactical fast roping operations combined with weapon handling and related tactical tasks. They are designed to protect against high friction during rope descent, provide basic resistance against cuts and punctures, and offer contact heat protection.
They are not intended to protect against chemical, biological, electrical or high-impact mechanical hazards.

FAQ
What makes the 9165 different from standard tactical gloves?
The 9165 is specifically designed for fast roping. It combines rope friction protection, contact heat resistance and high dexterity so the user can transition directly from rope handling to weapon handling.
Are the gloves touchscreen compatible?
Yes. The thumb and index finger use conductive leather, allowing operation of compatible touchscreen devices.
Do these gloves protect against rope heat?
Yes. The palm and fingers are certified to EN 407 contact heat level 2, which helps protect against heat buildup during fast roping operations.
Are they suitable for shooting as well?
Yes. The slim finger fit, flex zones and tactical construction allow weapon handling, radio use and manipulation of equipment after descent.
