  • Antistatic PVC gauntlet.
  • Designed to handle flammable or explosive materials due to its antistatic properties (surface resistivity: 108 - 109 . The liner contains dissipative fibres, preventing the production of a spark from discharge of static electricity carried by the hand. Manufactured according to our unique PVC process offering unequalled softness and excellent impermeability, increased resistance to hydrocarbons as well as high levels of resistance to chemicals. Our seamless liner combined with a very flexible PVC coating afford excellent dexterity, durability and reduces irritation. The rough finish on the palm allows objects to be held securely and promotes easy handling. The genuinely anatomical shape provides maximum comfort and reduces hand fatigue. Gloves can be worn for delicate tasks, thereby reducing “gloves off” accidents. These factors make it possible to perform a task for extended periods without tiring the hands, guaranteeing ultimate user acceptability combined with performance and safety.
