FAQs
Can I use these gloves if I have a latex allergy?
No. These gloves contain natural latex and can trigger allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.
Are these gloves waterproof?
The palm is coated in water-resistant latex, but the back of the glove is breathable, meaning it is not fully waterproof.
Do these provide protection against chemical splashes?
The Portwest A100 is designed for physical grip and abrasion resistance; it is not rated as a chemical-resistant glove.
Can these be washed in a washing machine?
Machine washing is not recommended as it can compromise the structural integrity of the latex coating and the liner.
What is the ANSI rating for these gloves?
They meet ANSI cut level A1 and abrasion level 2 standards.
Troubleshooting
The latex grip feels slippery or loses traction.
Clean the palm area with a damp cloth to remove dust, oil, or debris that may have collected on the crinkle latex surface.
Gloves feel tight or cause hand strain.
Ensure you are using the correct size; if the glove is too tight, it will restrict blood flow and cause fatigue. Replace with a larger size.
Foul odor after extended use.
Allow the gloves to thoroughly air-dry between shifts. If the odor persists, replace the gloves as the liner may be saturated with bacteria.
Pros and Cons
Pros

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are ready-to-wear safety gloves, no initial setup is required. To maintain their longevity, store the gloves in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and harsh chemicals, as UV exposure and solvent contact can cause the latex coating to become brittle. While they are designed for heavy use, you should inspect them before each shift for signs of tears, deep abrasions, or holes in the palm area. If the gloves become soiled, they can be cleaned with a soft brush or wiped with a damp cloth; ensure they are completely air-dried before storing to prevent mildew or odors from forming inside the liner.
