Product Information

Full details

Makita's Advanced Impact Demolition Gloves are designed for professionals undertaking high-impact tasks such as demolition. Their key benefit is superior impact and abrasion protection due to increased thermoplastic rubber (TRP) and D3O padded palm material. A potential consideration is that the specialized materials might initially feel stiffer than standard work gloves.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for very hot weather?

The gloves feature breathable material for added comfort, which helps in warmer conditions. However, prolonged direct sun exposure in extreme heat might still cause discomfort, as with any full-coverage glove.

What does EN388 rated: 2121XP mean?

The EN388 rating indicates the gloves' performance in mechanical risks. '2' for Abrasion Resistance, '1' for Blade Cut Resistance, '2' for Tear Resistance, '1' for Puncture Resistance, and 'XP' signifies a higher level of dexterity and protection.

Can I use these gloves for gardening?

While the gloves offer good protection and grip, they are primarily designed for high-impact industrial tasks. For light gardening, they might be overkill and could reduce fine dexterity. However, for heavy-duty landscaping or tasks involving thorns, they could be beneficial.

How do I clean the D3O padding?

The D3O padding is integrated into the palm. Follow the general machine washing instructions for the gloves. Avoid direct heat on the padded areas.

What is the primary advantage of the increased TRP content?

The increased thermoplastic rubber (TRP) content directly translates to enhanced impact protection for the back of the hand and fingers, crucial for demolition and other high-impact applications.

Are the "no snag" fingertip reinforcements durable?

Yes, these hidden reinforcements are specifically designed to enhance durability in high-wear areas like the fingertips of the index finger and thumb, preventing premature tearing.

How does the grip enhancement work?

The gloves feature a textured reinforcement panel on the palm that improves grip, particularly on smooth or oily surfaces, aiding in secure handling of tools and materials.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel too tight or restrictive.

Adjust the TRP hook and loop closure for a more customized fit. If the tightness persists, consider if a larger size is needed, although a snug fit is recommended for optimal protection.

Touchscreen functionality is not working.

Ensure the touchscreen areas of the gloves are clean and dry. For optimal performance, avoid excessive moisture or dirt on the fingertips.

Reduced grip on certain surfaces.

Clean both the gloves and the surface you are handling. The textured reinforcement panels are designed to enhance grip, but excessive dirt or oil can impede performance.

Deterioration of D3O padding over time.

Follow the recommended machine washing and air-drying instructions carefully. Avoid harsh chemicals or high heat, which can damage the advanced padding material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional impact protection with advanced D3O padding.
  • High abrasion resistance ensures longevity in demanding jobs.
  • Touchscreen compatibility adds convenience on the job site.
  • Breathable materials enhance comfort during prolonged use.
  • Secure and adjustable fit for optimal performance.

Cons

  • May feel stiffer than conventional gloves due to specialized protective materials.
  • The focus on impact protection might slightly reduce fine dexterity for very intricate tasks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These gloves are ready to use straight out of the packaging. Ensure you select the correct size for a snug, comfortable fit. The hook and loop closure allows for adjustment.

Compatibility: The Makita Advanced Impact Demolition Gloves are designed for a wide range of applications including automotive, demolition, maintenance, repair, general construction, heavy equipment operation, towing, transportation, and DIY projects. They are compatible with most touchscreen devices.

Care: Machine washable. For best results, wash on a cold cycle with mild detergent and air dry. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the materials. Ensure gloves are completely dry before storage to prevent odor and material breakdown.
