Sabelt Hypertouch TG-12 Auto Racing Gloves
The Sabelt Hypertouch TG-12 Auto Racing Gloves combine certified fire-resistant protection, dependable steering-wheel grip, touchscreen compatibility, and an updated ergonomic fit. Designed for competitive motorsport, the TG-12 gives drivers the control and comfort needed for racing, endurance events, track days, and performance driving.
A silicone-infused palm helps provide a secure connection with the steering wheel, while the reinforced internal palm improves durability in high-contact areas. Touchscreen-compatible fingertips allow drivers to operate compatible phones, lap-timing applications, and data-acquisition displays without removing their gloves.
Certified to the FIA 8856-2018 standard, the Sabelt Hypertouch TG-12 is suitable for racing organizations and events that require current FIA-approved driver equipment.
Silicone Palm for Enhanced Steering-Wheel Grip
The TG-12 features silicone grip material across the palm to improve traction against the steering wheel. This surface helps the driver maintain a consistent grip during braking, cornering, shifting, and rapid steering inputs.
Improved palm traction can also reduce the amount of gripping pressure required to control the wheel, helping minimize hand fatigue during longer driving sessions.
Touchscreen-Compatible Fingertips
Touchscreen-compatible fingertips allow the driver to operate compatible electronic devices without removing the gloves. This feature is useful when adjusting data-acquisition equipment, reviewing lap times, operating mobile applications, or using a phone between sessions.
Touchscreen performance may vary depending on the device, screen protector, and operating conditions.
Reinforced Internal Palm
A strengthened internal palm improves durability in areas exposed to frequent contact with the steering wheel. The reinforced construction helps the glove withstand repeated use while maintaining the flexibility and steering feedback required for precise vehicle control.
Updated Ergonomic Fit
Sabelt designed the Hypertouch TG-12 with an updated fit that follows the natural shape of the hand. The close-fitting construction helps reduce excess material and improves dexterity when operating paddle shifters, steering-wheel controls, switches, and other cockpit equipment.
The extended gauntlet-style cuff provides dependable coverage and overlap with the sleeve of a compatible racing suit.
Streamlined Racing Design
The TG-12 features a clean, low-profile design developed for performance driving. Its shaped fingers, extended cuff, and flexible construction provide a secure racing fit without unnecessary bulk.
Distinctive Sabelt branding and contrasting graphics give the gloves a professional appearance that coordinates with a wide range of racing suits and driver equipment.
FIA 8856-2018 Approved Racing Protection
The Sabelt Hypertouch TG-12 is homologated to the FIA 8856-2018 standard for protective clothing used in automobile competition. This certification makes the gloves appropriate for many professional, amateur, endurance, rally, road-racing, and club-level motorsport applications.
