Hand protection

Protective gloves

There are many professions that require the worker to do hard and dangerous work with their hands. Gloves are used to protect human limbs from harmful effects. They come in a variety of types and are designed for different jobs: there are special PPE for welding, for working on mechanical machines, special gloves for working with chemistry. Let's figure out how to choose protective products for hands.

Types of gloves

PPE, or personal protective equipment for hands, can be divided into:

• Gloves.
• Mittens.
• Crags (differ from mittens with a long bell).

In appearance, there are two-fingered, three-fingered and five-fingered.

We sell special gloves for hands of all the most popular types that protect against:

• Vibrations.
• High temperatures: they are used for welding.
• Low temperatures: they are sewn from wool or wool mixture and insulated with fur (artificial or natural).
• Mechanically resistant. Such PPE for hands is used when protection of the limbs from impacts or industrial dirt is important.
• General business — gloves save from water, exposure to cleaning products, detergents. They are made from rubber and latex.
• Chemical resistant. Protect from chemicals.

How to choose gloves?

Mittens and gaiters should not be tight-fitting so that it is convenient to grab objects. Knitted gloves opposite — lie close to the skin. Freedom of movement is achieved by stretching the threads.

Proper rubber and latex gloves also fit the hand tightly. This material stretches well.
