Suitable Applications
Please see the list below for a few suitable applications that suit the unique properties of UCi NL15 Gauntlets:
Benefits of a Nitrile Coating
Nitrile is an incredibly flexible coating that provides additional resistance to oil, fuel and chemicals. Nitrile is used as a protective coating in gloves because it matches the pliability of latex with the hazard and injury protection properties of a heavier glove. The coating remains flexible, meaning your hand has a high degree of flexibility inside the glove.
