FAQs

Are these gloves waterproof?

The M-Pact 2 Covert gloves are designed for protection and grip, not full waterproofing. While the materials offer some resistance to moisture, they are not fully waterproof and may become saturated in prolonged wet conditions.

Can I use these gloves with touchscreens?

The index finger is designed for enhanced dexterity, which can aid in touchscreen use. However, performance may vary depending on the sensitivity of the specific touchscreen and the thickness of the glove material at that point.

What is the primary material used for the palm?

The palm is constructed with Clarino synthetic leather, known for its durability, grip, and resistance to abrasion, along with padding for comfort and shock absorption.

How do I determine the right size?

Refer to the manufacturer's sizing chart, typically found on their website or product packaging. Measure the circumference of your hand at the widest point (excluding the thumb) and compare it to the chart. For this model, XL is specified.

What does CE-certified mean for these gloves?

CE certification indicates that the gloves meet the essential health and safety requirements set by the European Union for protective equipment. For handwear, this typically relates to protection against mechanical risks like abrasion, cuts, and impacts.

Are these suitable for extreme cold weather?

These gloves offer some thermal insulation due to their materials like Neoprene, but they are not specifically designed as extreme cold-weather gloves. They are best suited for moderate temperatures where protection and dexterity are prioritized.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel too tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the XL size is still too snug, consider if your hand measurements fall outside the typical XL range. For a more relaxed fit, try a different glove model. Breaking in the gloves through moderate use may also help.

Reduced grip after getting wet or dirty.

Wipe the palms with a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Allow the gloves to air dry completely. For synthetic leather, avoid using oils or conditioners not specifically designed for this material.

Seams beginning to fray.

Inspect the seams for any loose threads. Carefully trim any loose threads with scissors. If the seam is significantly damaged, it may compromise the glove's protective qualities and replacement may be necessary.

Discomfort on knuckles during impact.

Verify that the TPR knuckle guards are properly aligned with your knuckles. Ensure the gloves are not overly tight, which could exacerbate pressure points. The accordion design should allow for sufficient flexibility.

Pros

  • Excellent impact and abrasion protection.
  • Superior grip and tactile feedback for fine motor tasks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These gloves are ready to wear right out of the packaging. Ensure you select the correct size (XL in this case) for optimal performance and comfort. A proper fit is crucial for both protection and dexterity.

Compatibility: The M-Pact 2 Covert gloves are designed for a wide range of applications, including but not limited to mechanical work, tactical operations, construction, and general heavy-duty tasks. They are compatible with most tools and equipment requiring hand dexterity.

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

  1. Cleaning: Hand wash using cold water and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach.
  2. Drying: Air dry the gloves completely away from direct heat sources or sunlight. Do not machine dry.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent material degradation.
