protective sleeves
Explanation:
A Google search on Armstulpen throws up plenty of interesting results! But most of them are nothing whatsoever to do with your context, and more to do with fetishism!

I did find the above, though, which seems to work well in your context.

arm protectors


Explanation:
"Personnel with potential exposure to hazardous agents should be provided with personal protective equipment appropriate to the agents (CFR 1984c). For example, personnel exposed to nonhuman primates should be provided with such protective items as gloves, arm protectors, masks, and face shields. "

arm protrusions / arm stumps


Explanation:
If I may add to the expertise of my esteemed Proz colleagues, I would like to add my suggestion as a Dutch native speaker. In Dutch 'uitstulping' can mean 'protrusion'. It's a pity that there is no more context to check out this possibility.

Regards,
Marijke

shirt cuffs


Explanation:
Stulpen are cuffs, and the other item mentioned is gloves. That is purely linguistic, but maybe it will help,
