Product Information

Full details

The Portwest Grip 12 PVC Gauntlet is an ideal solution for industrial workers who require heavy-duty liquid protection and reliable grip in hazardous environments. These gauntlets are engineered for those handling chemicals, oils, or abrasive materials, offering a balance between tactile sensitivity and robust hand shielding; however, because they are made of PVC, they may not be suitable for extreme heat applications where flame resistance is required.

FAQs

Are these gloves resistant to all chemicals?

While PVC provides excellent resistance to many acids and oils, always check the specific chemical compatibility chart to ensure suitability for your specific task.

How long are these gauntlets?

These gauntlets have a total length of 350mm (35cm), covering the hand and a significant portion of the forearm.

Can I wash these gloves?

Yes, you can wipe them down or rinse them with water. Ensure they are completely dry before reuse.

Do these gloves come in different sizes?

This specific variant is an XL, though Portwest offers a range of sizes to ensure a proper fit for different hand sizes.

Are they safe for food handling?

These gauntlets are designed for industrial use, specifically for abrasion and liquid protection, and are not rated for direct food contact.

Troubleshooting

Moisture buildup inside the glove

The moisture is likely perspiration; rotate your gloves periodically and ensure the cotton lining is fully dried between shifts.

Reduced grip on slippery surfaces

Clean the outer PVC surface with a mild degreaser and water to remove accumulated residue, then pat dry.

  • Soft internal lining for all-day comfort
  • Excellent abrasion resistance for long-term durability
  • Phthalate-free construction

  • Not intended for high-heat or flame protection

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the Portwest Grip 12 PVC Gauntlet, users should avoid puncturing the outer coating with sharp objects. When putting on the gloves, ensure the cotton lining is pulled completely onto the hand for maximum comfort. For maintenance, rinse the gloves with clean water after exposure to chemicals or oils and allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources. Regularly inspect the gauntlets for signs of wear, such as cracking or thinning of the PVC layer, and replace them immediately if the barrier is compromised.
