Product Overview
The GP Grip 18 Nitrile Micro Foam Glove is a sophisticated solution for professionals who require high levels of dexterity without compromising on protection. Constructed with a fine-knit 18-gauge liner, these gloves offer a near-second-skin feel, making them ideal for tasks where tactile feedback and precision are paramount. Whether you are navigating dry surfaces or managing components in oily and wet environments, the nitrile micro foam coating provides a reliable, secure grip while maintaining breathability.
Key Features
- Precision 18-Gauge Liner: The ultra-fine knit provides exceptional tactile sensitivity, allowing you to handle small components with ease and accuracy.
- Nitrile Micro Foam Coating: This advanced coating ensures a superior grip in dry, wet, or oily conditions, reducing the risk of slips and increasing operational safety.
- Ergonomic Design: Specifically engineered to follow the natural contours of the hand, this design significantly minimises hand fatigue during extended periods of use.
- Dermatologically Tested: The fabric and coating have been rigorously tested to ensure they are skin-friendly, preventing the irritation often associated with lower-quality work gloves.
- OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 Certified: This certification guarantees that the product is free from harmful substances, providing peace of mind for those with sensitive skin or allergies.
Design & Performance
The performance of these gloves stems from the intelligent blend of Nylon and Latex-free Elastane. This composition provides a lightweight, flexible fit that moves with the hand rather than resisting it. The 18-gauge construction is particularly noteworthy; it represents a very fine knit that offers far more flexibility than standard industrial gloves. The nitrile micro foam coating is not just about grip; it is also designed to be breathable, helping to manage moisture and keep hands comfortable throughout a full shift. The black colourway is also a practical choice, as it effectively hides dirt and grease, maintaining a professional appearance for longer.
Why No Customisation?
At MyWorkwear, we take safety seriously. These gloves are classified as Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and are engineered to meet specific safety standards for hand protection. Any modification, such as embroidery or heat-applied printing, could compromise the structural integrity of the fine-knit liner or the protective nitrile coating. To ensure you receive the full protection these gloves were designed to provide, we supply them in their original, unadulterated form.
Use Cases
These gloves are an excellent choice for automotive technicians, assembly line workers, and maintenance engineers who deal with oily parts or require high levels of precision. They are equally suited for general warehouse tasks where a secure grip is needed to handle packages safely. Given their skin-friendly certifications, they are the preferred option for workers who suffer from skin sensitivities or who must wear gloves for the entirety of their working day.

Practical Advice
To get the most out of these gloves, ensure you select the correct size. A fit that is too tight can cause unnecessary strain on the Elastane fibres, while a fit that is too loose will negate the benefits of the 18-gauge precision liner. If you are working in particularly cold environments, these can serve as an excellent liner glove, though they are primarily designed for direct use to maximise tactile feedback.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the performance of your gloves is essential for both hygiene and safety. We recommend a gentle wash to remove dirt and contaminants that can degrade the nitrile coating over time. Avoiding high temperatures is crucial; excessive heat can cause the Elastane to lose its elasticity, resulting in a glove that no longer fits securely.
Do not use bleach or harsh chemical cleaners. These substances can break down the synthetic fibres of the Nylon liner and compromise the micro foam coating, rendering the gloves less effective at providing grip. Similarly, avoid tumble drying on high heat settings, as this can lead to shrinkage and damage the integrity of the nitrile surface. Air drying is always the safest method to ensure the gloves retain their ergonomic shape.
