Product Information

Full details

The Portwest A100 Grip Glove - Latex is designed for professionals in construction, manufacturing, and warehousing who need a secure grip and durable hand protection. Its key benefit is enhanced grip reliability in both wet and dry conditions, reducing slips and potential injuries. A potential caveat is that while breathable, prolonged heavy sweating might still lead to discomfort for some users. This premium work glove features a latex foam coating, crinkle latex palm for superior grip, and a tough 10-gauge liner for abrasion resistance, all within a comfortable, ergonomic design.

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for people with latex allergies?

No, these gloves are made with a latex coating and are not suitable for individuals with latex allergies.

Can I use these gloves for protection against sharp objects?

These gloves have an ANSI cut level A1 and abrasion level 2, offering some protection against minor cuts and abrasion. They are not designed for protection against sharp or pointed objects.

How do I determine the right size?

Measure the circumference of your hand at the knuckles (excluding the thumb). Consult the Portwest sizing chart for the corresponding glove size. A proper fit is crucial for comfort and performance.

Can I machine wash these gloves?

It is recommended to hand wash the gloves with mild soap and cool water. Machine washing and drying may damage the latex coating and reduce the lifespan of the gloves.

What does 'crinkle latex' mean for grip?

The 'crinkle' texture on the latex palm creates more surface area and friction points, significantly enhancing grip performance, especially on smooth or wet surfaces.

How long can I expect these gloves to last?

The lifespan depends on the frequency and intensity of use. The tough 10-gauge liner and abrasion-resistant coating provide good durability, but regular inspection for wear and tear is advised.

Are these gloves suitable for working in very cold conditions?

These gloves are primarily designed for grip and protection. They offer minimal insulation and are not intended for working in extreme cold temperatures.

Troubleshooting

Grip seems reduced over time

Clean the gloves thoroughly with mild soap and water to remove accumulated dirt and oils. Ensure they are completely dry before use.

Hands feel sweaty after prolonged use

While designed for breathability, in very high humidity or during intense activity, some moisture buildup is possible. Ensure proper fit and consider taking short breaks to air out hands.

Gloves show signs of wear (tears/holes)

Inspect gloves regularly for damage. If significant wear is present, replace the gloves to maintain safety and protection levels. The 10-gauge liner offers abrasion resistance but is not indestructible.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These gloves are ready for use straight out of the packaging. Select the correct size for a snug, comfortable fit. An improper fit can reduce dexterity and comfort.

  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to preserve the integrity of the latex coating.
