Gloves and mittens are a necessary piece of clothing for work on a construction site, a factory, during repairs and other tasks. Their main purpose is to protect hands from damage and dirt. Whether you work with a shovel, ax, grinder or other tool, you should definitely wear cotton gloves so as not to get hurt or get dirty.
Work cotton gloves are the most common type of product that protects hands not only from dirt and small cuts, but also from thermal and chemical burns. On their palm part there is usually a PVC coating, which prevents the tools from slipping and increases the wear resistance of the product.
Cotton gloves with tarpaulin, unlike ordinary cotton gloves, have a more durable tarpaulin patch instead of PVC dusting. If you need even more durable material, pay attention to double work gloves with a tarpaulin.
Cotton gloves are not recommended for metal and welding work. For these purposes, tarpaulin products are usually put on, which are almost impossible to tear and wipe.
If you plan to work with hot materials, cloth gloves made with a special flame retardant impregnation will come in handy. They are perfect for steelworkers, welders, bakers, foundry workers and other professionals. Calfskin mittens that can withstand significant temperatures also have fire resistance.
To work with a jigsaw, a puncher and a jackhammer, it is recommended to buy special anti-vibration gloves that look like ordinary cotton gloves. They are distinguished by patches made of foam rubber or batting, which greatly facilitate the work with electric tools.
For plastering and other types of work involving the use of hydrated lime, latex gloves are produced. They will protect your hands from solutions that are harmful to the skin.
