Product Overview
The GP Grip 15 Nitrile Micro Foam Glove is a sophisticated piece of hand protection designed for professionals who require high-precision handling capabilities without sacrificing skin health or comfort. These lightweight gloves are engineered to excel in varied working conditions, including dry, wet, and oily environments, making them a versatile choice for complex manual tasks.
Key Features
- 15-Gauge Lightweight Liner: The fine knit construction provides exceptional dexterity and tactile sensitivity, allowing for the precise handling of small components.
- Nitrile Micro Foam Coating: This specialised coating ensures a superior grip on slippery surfaces while remaining breathable to keep hands cool during prolonged use.
- Dermatologically Tested: These gloves have undergone rigorous testing to ensure they are skin-friendly, significantly reducing the risk of irritation for those with sensitive skin.
- OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 Certified: This certification confirms that the product is free from harmful substances, providing peace of mind for daily wear.
- Ergonomic Design: Specifically shaped to follow the hand's natural contours, the design helps to minimise hand fatigue during repetitive or long-duration tasks.
Design & Performance
The core of the GP Grip glove lies in its blend of nylon and latex-free elastane. This combination provides a snug, secure fit that moves with the hand rather than against it. The nitrile micro foam coating is not just about grip; it acts as a resilient barrier against oils and moisture, which are common hazards in mechanical and industrial settings. Because the coating is porous, it facilitates airflow, which is essential for maintaining comfort throughout an eight-hour shift. The black colourway is also a practical choice, as it helps to mask dirt and grease, maintaining a professional appearance for longer.
Why No Customisation?
At MyWorkwear, we take the safety and integrity of Personal Protective Equipment very seriously. Because these gloves are precision-engineered with a 15-gauge liner and a specific nitrile micro foam coating, any post-manufacturing customisation—such as heat-applied transfers or embroidery—could damage the fabric structure or compromise the protective qualities of the coating. To ensure you receive the full benefit of their technical design and safety certifications, we provide these gloves in their original, unadulterated form.
Use Cases
These gloves are ideally suited for professionals in the automotive, engineering, and logistics sectors. They are particularly effective for assembly line work where small parts must be handled with precision, or for maintenance tasks where oil and grease are frequently encountered. They are equally useful for general warehouse duties where a dependable grip is a prerequisite for safety.

Practical Advice
To get the best performance out of these gloves, it is vital to select the correct size. A glove that is too tight can restrict movement and cause discomfort, while one that is too loose will reduce your tactile feedback and could become a snagging hazard. When properly fitted, the 15-gauge liner should feel like a second skin.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and longevity of your nitrile micro foam gloves, they should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause the nitrile coating to degrade and lose its characteristic flexibility.
Should the gloves require cleaning, we recommend a gentle hand wash in cool water. You must avoid the use of bleach or aggressive chemical detergents, as these substances will break down the synthetic nylon fibres and the nitrile coating, which will significantly reduce the glove's protective lifespan.
After washing, allow the gloves to air dry naturally. Avoid using a tumble dryer or placing them directly on a heat source like a radiator, as excessive heat can cause the elastane to lose its stretch and may lead to the coating becoming brittle.
