The ESD PVC Chemical Gauntlet is a specialist piece of hand protection designed for high-risk environments where chemical exposure and electrostatic discharge must be managed simultaneously. This gauntlet provides a robust barrier against hazardous substances while incorporating anti-static properties to prevent the build-up of static electricity, which is critical when working near volatile chemicals or sensitive electronic components.
This gauntlet is designed for professionals who cannot afford to compromise on feel or safety. The lightweight fabric and flexible PVC allow for excellent dexterity, a feature often lost in heavier protective gloves. The sandy finish is particularly effective in technical environments, providing the necessary tactile feedback and grip to manage delicate instruments or heavy chemical drums alike. Its length ensures that the protection extends well past the wrist, offering a comprehensive safety solution.
As this is a specialised piece of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), we do not offer customisation. Applying embroidery would involve puncturing the protective PVC layer, rendering the chemical resistance useless. Similarly, heat-applied transfers could interfere with the ESD properties of the material. To ensure your safety and compliance with health and safety regulations, this product must remain in its original, un-modified state.
These gauntlets are essential for workers in the petrochemical industry, electronics manufacturing, and laboratory environments. They are specifically suited for any task involving the handling of liquids where static control is a mandatory safety requirement.
Since 1976, MyWorkwear has been a trusted partner for UK businesses. Operating from our technical hub in Telford, we apply decades of industry knowledge to ensure that the workwear and PPE we provide meet the exacting standards of the modern workplace. We don't just supply gear; we understand the technical requirements of your trade.
We recommend a thorough visual inspection of the gauntlets before every use to check for punctures or signs of wear. For those working in particularly cold environments, these gauntlets are flexible enough to be worn over a thin thermal liner, though you should ensure this does not compromise the fit or your ability to grip tools securely.
To maintain the integrity of the chemical barrier and the ESD properties, these gauntlets should be wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild soap after use to remove any chemical residue. Residual chemicals left on the PVC can cause the material to stiffen or crack prematurely.
Always store the gauntlets flat in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight. Prolonged UV exposure can degrade the PVC, reducing its effectiveness as a protective barrier. Do not use industrial cleaning solvents on the exterior of the glove, as these may damage the sandy grip finish.
