How Do Ejendals Chemical and Contact Heat Resistant Gloves Protect My Hands?
Using a three-fold combination of heat, mechanical and chemical resistant, Ejendals Tegera 8162 Safety Gloves allow the user to handle harmful substances and tools without causing damage to the hand. With an extended cuff and a foundation fabric that is repellent to water and oil, these gloves are an excellent addition to any workplace wardrobe.
Water and Oil Repellent Design
Whether you work in chemical manufacturing or automotive handling, you want your gloves to be resistant to sticky, nasty substances. This is how gloves get ruined. Ejendals Tegera 8162 Chemical Safety Gloves are designed to resist sticking, making them resistant to clingy oils, food waste, dirt, chemicals and fats.
Extended Cuff Design
Designed to prevent chemical splashing damaging the skin, Ejendals Tegera 8162 Safety Gloves use an extended cuff to further shield the user against harm. Extending up the forearm, this cuff works to do what other safety gloves cannot and protect the user all the way up to their forearm.
Maximise Grip Purchase and Stability
Ejendals 8162 Safety Gloves use a ribbed, stippled design on the palm and fingertips to maximise grip strength and stability when handling material. This raised texture helps the hand make firm contact, ensures that slips and drops are a thing of the past.
Latex Coating Benefits
Latex is an incredibly durable, cost-efficient coating. Because of its widespread use and subsequently inexpensive nature, gloves manufactured with it are inexpensive whilst remaining high quality. Latex coated gloves tend to have a higher puncture and tear resistance than their nitrile counterparts.
Food Safe Foundation Fabric
Ejendals 8162 Safety Gloves are 100% food safe and can be used in food manufacturing and handling environments.
