Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these gloves machine washable?

While hand washing is recommended to preserve the integrity of the PU coating, they can be cleaned using mild soap and air-dried.

Do these gloves work with all touchscreen devices?

They are compatible with most capacitive screens, though performance may vary depending on the device's screen sensitivity and screen protector thickness.

What does Cut Level B mean?

This refers to the performance level under the EN 388 standard, indicating the glove provides moderate protection against cut hazards.

Can I use these for handling hot metal?

These gloves provide contact heat protection up to 100°C, but they are not intended for prolonged exposure to extreme heat.

Are these suitable for wet or oily conditions?

No, the PU coating is optimized for dry conditions. Grip and durability will be significantly reduced if the gloves become saturated with oil or water.

Troubleshooting

Touchscreen not responding

Ensure the glove fingertips are clean and free of debris. If the screen has a heavy-duty protector, you may need to apply slightly more pressure.

Loss of grip

Check the PU coating for excessive dust or oil buildup; clean the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent tactile sensitivity for precision work
  • Effective touchscreen integration
  • High durability in high-wear zones due to reinforced thumb crotch
  • Lightweight and breathable design
  • Certified to multiple international safety standards

Cons

  • Not intended for wet or oily environments
  • Limited to Cut B protection, not suitable for heavy metal handling
  • Heat protection is limited to short-term contact only

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These gloves are ready for immediate use. Compatibility is broad, covering most capacitive touchscreen surfaces found on modern electronics. To maintain performance, ensure the palm coating remains clean and free of heavy oil buildup, which can degrade the PU material. When cleaning is necessary, hand wash with mild detergent and allow to air dry. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the synthetic materials.
