Våre visirskinn produserer i flammehemmebehandlet elgskinnsspalt. På grunn av vekten og mykheten gir elgskinnsspalt i visirskinn den beste funksjonaliteten.

Any suggestions for the translation of "spalt" here would be appreciated. Thanks.

I see you added "elk hide" when entering in the glossary, which is of course appropriate. Living here among them as I do, I don't always think of the name used for them in English in Europe. :-)
