Product Overview
The Grip 15 Nitrile Double Palm Glove is a precision-engineered solution designed for professionals who require a high degree of protection without sacrificing tactile sensitivity. Specifically developed for environments where oils and solvents are prevalent, such as automotive engineering or heavy manufacturing, these gloves address the common issue of premature wear in high-friction areas. By utilising a double nitrile palm, this glove extends the service life of the garment while maintaining the flexibility needed for intricate assembly tasks.
Key Features
- High-Quality Nitrile Coating: This advanced coating provides a robust barrier against oils and solvents, ensuring your hands remain protected and the material does not degrade when exposed to common industrial chemicals.
- Double Palm Design: Reinforcing the primary contact point increases the glove's durability and longevity, making it a cost-effective choice for demanding shift work.
- Superior Grip: The textured surface is engineered to provide a secure hold on components, even when they are slick with lubricants, which significantly reduces the risk of accidents or dropped tools.
- Exceptional Dexterity: Despite its reinforced nature, the glove allows for the precise handling of small parts and components, ensuring productivity is never hindered by bulky hand protection.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a sophisticated blend of Nylon, Elastic, and Elastane, the base liner of this glove offers a close, ergonomic fit that moves with the hand. The lightweight nature of the fabric ensures that the wearer does not suffer from hand fatigue during prolonged use, while the elasticated elements provide a secure fit around the wrist to prevent debris from entering the glove.
The performance of the Grip 15 is defined by its nitrile coating. Unlike standard latex, nitrile is exceptionally resistant to punctures and chemical permeation, making it the professional choice for those handling oily mechanical parts. The double-layered palm specifically targets the zone most prone to abrasion, ensuring that the glove maintains its integrity long after single-layered alternatives would have failed.
Why No Customisation?
As a specialist piece of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), these gloves are sold without customisation to ensure their protective properties are not compromised. The application of heat-pressed logos or embroidery would potentially puncture the nitrile barrier or damage the nylon liner, which could lead to chemical seepage or a reduction in the glove's mechanical resistance. We prioritise your safety by providing these items in their original, high-performance state.
Use Cases
These gloves are ideally suited for professionals in the manufacturing and engineering sectors, particularly those involved in engine assembly, component degreasing, or general maintenance where oil contact is frequent. They are also highly effective for logistics and warehouse roles where a secure grip on various surfaces is essential for safe handling.
Why MyWorkwear
Since 1976, MyWorkwear has been at the forefront of providing technical clothing and safety equipment to British industry. Operating from our specialised facility in Telford, we bring decades of expertise to every product we select. We understand that in industrial environments, the quality of your equipment is not just a preference, but a necessity for operational safety and efficiency.
Practical Advice
To achieve the best balance between protection and dexterity, ensure you select the correct size; a glove that is too tight may overstretch the nitrile coating, while one that is too loose will reduce your ability to handle small components effectively. If you are working between sizes, we recommend considering the specific requirements of your task—tighter for precision, slightly looser for better airflow.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and protective qualities of the nitrile coating, it is essential to store these gloves in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight. UV exposure can cause the nitrile to become brittle over time, which reduces its flexibility and oil resistance.
After use in oily conditions, wipe the surface with a clean cloth to remove excess contaminants. We do not recommend mechanical washing or the use of harsh detergents, as these can strip the essential properties of the synthetic materials and weaken the bond of the double palm reinforcement.
