How Does the Portwest Chainmail Glove Protect Your Hand?

Metal chainmail is extremely effective in protecting your hand and forearm from cuts. Meat processing and food preparation often involve fast-paced environments using sharp blades - with the steel glove covering the vulnerable area, you can work at your usual pace without worrying about cuts from a meat knife.

Who Can Use the Portwest Gauntlet Glove?

However, the glove is also ideal for any environment where sharp objects are a common hazard, perhaps to be worn over a glove made from a softer material.

We have included some of those below:

• Abbatoir
• Butchers
• Oyster Shucking
• Food Handling

How to Take Care of the Glove

If you are using this glove for food preparation, it's important to know how to deal with hygiene. The metal chainmail offers good resistance against animal fats, greases and oils, but as with any glove, you should make sure you wash your hands frequently and after every use. The glove itself should also be washed regularly with warm soapy water.

How Can I Adjust the Fit?

This glove comes with a helpful wrist strap. As well as tightening the fit around your forearm, giving extra protection against lacerations, it enables you to adjust for comfort and optimal handling.
