Product Information

Full details

The Portwest A315 All-Flex Grip Glove is designed for professionals working with slippery tools and oily surfaces. Its key benefit is providing superior liquid resistance and enhanced grip without sacrificing dexterity or comfort. A potential caveat is that while offering good abrasion resistance, it may not be suitable for tasks requiring heavy-duty cut protection. This glove features a fully dipped nitrile coating for maximum protection against oil and water, a 13-gauge polycotton blend liner for a comfortable fit, and an ergonomic design to reduce hand fatigue.

FAQs

What are the primary materials used in the Portwest A315 gloves?

The gloves are made from a Pylon (polycotton blend) liner and feature a Nitrile coating for grip and liquid resistance.

Are these gloves suitable for handling chemicals?

The smooth nitrile coating offers enhanced protection against oil and water, and some mild chemicals. However, for heavy chemical exposure, gloves specifically rated for those substances should be used.

How long do these gloves typically last?

The lifespan depends on the frequency and nature of use. For tasks involving moderate oil and water exposure without significant abrasion, they can last for a considerable period. Regular inspection for wear and tear is recommended.

Can I machine wash these gloves?

It is recommended to hand wash the gloves using cold water and mild detergent. Machine washing is not advised as it may damage the nitrile coating and the liner.

What does 'ANSI abrasion level 1' mean?

ANSI abrasion level 1 indicates a basic level of resistance to abrasion. It means the glove can withstand a certain amount of rubbing without significant wear, suitable for general handling tasks but not for highly abrasive materials.

What is the purpose of the elasticated inner cuff?

The inner elasticated cuff is designed to provide a secure fit around the wrist, helping to prevent dirt, debris, and liquids from entering the glove during use.

Are these gloves available in different colors?

Based on the provided information, the Portwest A315 All-Flex Grip Glove is available in Black.

Troubleshooting

Glove feels too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. A proper fit is essential for comfort and dexterity. Refer to the sizing chart if available or try a different size.

Reduced grip after prolonged use.

The nitrile coating may have become contaminated with oil or grease. Clean the gloves according to the care instructions. For persistent issues, the coating may be worn, and replacement is recommended.

Hands feel damp inside the glove.

This could be due to sweat or a breach in the glove's liquid resistance. Ensure the cuff is properly sealed and consider that in very humid conditions or during intense activity, some perspiration is natural. If liquid is penetrating, the glove may be damaged and needs replacement.

Glove is not recognized by touchscreen devices.

Ensure the fingertips are clean and dry. The touchscreen compatibility is designed for basic functionality; very fine or complex interactions may still require removal. Ensure the glove is the correct model that supports touchscreen use.

  • Comfortable and provides good dexterity for detailed tasks.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Portwest A315 All-Flex Grip Gloves are ready for immediate use upon unboxing. Ensure you select the correct size for a snug, comfortable fit, which is crucial for maintaining dexterity and preventing the glove from slipping during use.

Compatibility: These gloves are designed to be compatible with most mobile touchscreen devices, allowing for seamless operation of smartphones and tablets without removal.

Care: To maintain the performance and lifespan of your gloves:

  1. Cleaning: Hand wash using cold water and a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly.
  2. Drying: Air dry away from direct heat sources or sunlight. Do not tumble dry.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original packaging, to prevent damage to the nitrile coating.
  4. Inspection: Before each use, inspect the gloves for any signs of wear, cuts, or holes. Discontinue use if damage is present, as this compromises their protective qualities.
