UCi Ketodex Chemical Resistant Gauntlet
For protection against solvents and ketones, specialist hand protection is required. The UCi Ketodex Chemical Resistant Gauntlet is constructed from a unique formulation that provides exceptional protection against a wide range of chemical agents, including MEK and acetone.
Unsupported Design
The Ketodex Chemical Resistant Gauntlets feature an unsupported design, which means the gloves are made by dipping porcelain hand forms directly into the glove compound. This results in an anatomical shape that remains skin tight during use, ensuring comfort, flexibility and reduced hand fatigue during prolonged periods of use.
