These gloves are particularly suited for industries where manual handling of such materials is common. Here's a detailed breakdown of their features:
Gauge Bleached T/C Liner
- Gauge: This term refers to the density of the knit of the glove's fabric. The gauge number indicates how many stitches are in a given length, affecting the glove's thickness, flexibility, and dexterity. Although the exact gauge number isn't specified, work gloves typically range from 7-gauge (thicker and less dexterous) to 18-gauge (thinner and more dexterous), with the choice depending on the balance between protection and dexterity needed.
- Bleached T/C Liner: The liner is made from a blend of polyester (Terylene) and cotton, which has been bleached for cleanliness or aesthetic reasons. This material combination offers durability, comfort, and good moisture absorption, making the gloves more comfortable to wear for extended periods, especially in warmer conditions.
Red Latex on Palm
- The palm area of the glove is coated with red latex. This coating enhances the glove's grip, making it easier to hold onto slippery or smooth objects securely. Latex is known for its high elasticity and resistance to tears, making it an excellent choice for protective coatings. The red color could serve as a quick visual identifier for the glove type or for safety purposes.
Rough Rubber Coated Palm for Handling Slippery or Abrasive Objects
- Rough Rubber Coated Palm: The palm's rough rubber coating is specifically designed to improve grip and provide additional protection against abrasions, cuts, and punctures. This feature is crucial for handling both slippery and abrasive objects, ensuring the user can maintain a firm grip while protecting their hands from potential injuries.
- Handling Slippery or Abrasive Objects: This characteristic highlights the glove's intended use in environments where materials being handled may be difficult to grip or could cause wear and tear on the gloves. It suggests suitability for various applications, including but not limited to, construction work, mechanical tasks, warehouse operations, and potentially even seafood handling, where maintaining a secure grip on wet, slippery surfaces like crayfish is essential.
