Who Can Use the MaxiDry Plus Gloves?
The MaxiDry Gauntlet Gloves offer protection against a range of chemicals as well as other liquids and microorganisms. While this means they are ideal for lab or decontamination applications, their oil resistance also makes them suitable for oil work. Some industries we recommend them for include:
How Long Are These Gloves?
The MaxiDry Chemical Resistant Gloves have an extra-long gauntlet style for maximum protection against liquids. They has an overall length of about 300mmm which covers most of the forearm. This helps to stop liquids from getting into the glove even when hands are submerged.
Can Liquid Enter These Gloves?
These gloves are fully waterproof and are therefore able to prevent liquid penetration. However, as they don't have a closed cuff, liquid can still enter in the event of rollback. A tighter glove is therefore recommended for riskier applications.
How Comfortable Are These Gloves?
These gloves are very comfortable to wear thanks to their stretchy nylon liner. This flexible material allows users to retain a good amount of dexterity, enabling a stronger grip and safer manual handling, while also preventing hand fatigue.
How Grippy Are the MaxiDry Gloves?
These gloves provide a high level of grip to prevent accident and injury during chemical handling. Their nitrile coating has a textured micro-cup finish which creates friction for optimal grip and control.
Materials
The MaxiDry Gloves are made from the following materials:
- Coating: NBR (nitrile butadiene rubber)
