Product Overview
The A105 Grip 10 Latex 3/4 Dipped Glove is a meticulously designed piece of hand protection, engineered for those who require a balance between tactile sensitivity and robust shielding. Constructed with a medium-gauge knitted liner, these gloves provide the dexterity needed for intricate manual tasks while offering substantial protection against mechanical risks. The standout feature is the 3/4 latex dipping, which extends the protective barrier over the knuckles and sides of the hand, ensuring that your hands remain dry and protected when working in damp or abrasive environments.
Key Features
- Medium-gauge knitted liner: Offers a supple fit that moves with the hand, significantly reducing hand fatigue during extended periods of wear.
- Premium latex coating: Provides a tough, resilient layer that guards against punctures and abrasions, extending the lifespan of the glove in demanding conditions.
- 3/4 dipped coverage: Enhances protection against liquid ingress and debris by covering more of the hand than a standard palm dip, without hindering wrist movement.
- Crinkle-grip finish: This textured surface dramatically improves grip performance in both wet and dry conditions, allowing for the confident handling of slippery or smooth materials.
Design & Performance
The technical performance of the A105 is rooted in its material composition. The polyester and elastic liner is lightweight and breathable, allowing for natural thermoregulation which is essential during high-activity shifts. The premium latex is applied to the liner in a 3/4 configuration, specifically chosen to shield the knuckles from scrapes and splashes while leaving the back of the wrist open for ventilation. The crinkle-grip finish is particularly effective; by increasing the surface area and friction, it reduces the physical effort required to hold objects, thereby enhancing safety and efficiency on the job.
Why No Customisation?
This item is classified as Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and has been manufactured to adhere to specific safety certifications. Applying customisation such as heat-transfer prints or embroidery would require piercing or heating the materials, which could compromise the integrity of the latex coating and the tensile strength of the liner. To ensure that the glove provides the exact level of protection for which it was designed, we provide this product in its original, tested form.
Use Cases
These gloves are an excellent choice for professionals working in construction, logistics, and general maintenance. They are particularly suited for site work where moisture or light oils are present, and where the handling of scaffolding, bricks, or timber is a daily requirement. If your role involves moving from dry indoor tasks to damp outdoor environments, the 3/4 dipping provides the necessary versatility.

Practical Advice
For the best performance, ensure you select the correct size; a glove that is too loose will reduce dexterity and may snag, while one that is too tight can cause discomfort and premature wear on the elasticated cuff. When working in colder conditions, these gloves can be paired with a thin thermal liner, though the medium-gauge liner already provides a decent level of insulation for most standard UK working environments.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and grip of your gloves, it is important to keep them clean. After use, wipe away any heavy debris or mud using a damp cloth. Allowing grit to remain on the latex surface can lead to micro-abrasions that will eventually degrade the coating.
We recommend avoiding the use of harsh chemical cleaners or bleach, as these can break down the latex and polyester fibres, making the glove brittle. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, as prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause the latex to perish over time. By following these simple steps, you ensure that your hand protection remains reliable and effective for as long as possible.
