FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for all types of construction work?

These gloves are specifically engineered for high-impact demolition, automotive, maintenance, and repair tasks. While they offer excellent protection for general construction, they might be more robust than necessary for lighter tasks, potentially affecting dexterity.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to Makita's sizing guide, which typically involves measuring the circumference of your palm. The large size is designed for a specific hand dimension range.

Can I use these gloves with power tools?

Yes, the enhanced grip and impact protection make them suitable for use with power tools, helping to reduce vibration and protect hands from accidental impacts.

How long will these gloves last?

Durability depends on the frequency and intensity of use. The high abrasion resistance and reinforced construction are designed for longevity in demanding environments. Regular care and proper washing will help extend their lifespan.

Are they waterproof?

The product description emphasizes breathability and impact protection. They are not specifically listed as waterproof, though they may offer some resistance to light moisture.

What does EN388 rated: 2121XP mean?

EN388 is a European standard for protective gloves. The rating 2121XP indicates: Abrasion resistance (2 of 4), Blade cut resistance (1 of 5), Tear resistance (2 of 4), Puncture resistance (1 of 4), and X for coup test resistance (P for highest level).

Troubleshooting

Reduced touchscreen sensitivity

Ensure fingertips are clean and dry. If the issue persists, the touchscreen sensitivity might be affected by the glove material's interaction with your specific device.

Gloves feel too tight or loose

Adjust the large flexible TRP hook-and-loop closure for a custom fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size according to Makita's sizing chart.

Decreased grip performance

Check if the textured reinforcement panels are clean. Remove any dirt or grease that may be hindering grip. Ensure the gloves are fully dry.

Premature wear on fingertips

While the gloves have hidden fingertip reinforcements, excessive force or abrasion on these specific points can still lead to wear. For tasks involving extreme friction on fingertips, consider specialized gloves for those specific actions.
