Who Can Use the A650 Grey Gloves?
The Portwest A650s are an excellent choice for a pair of work gloves that combine a high level of general protection and considerable capacity for fine handling and precision tasks. For these reasons, we recommend them for the following industries:
How Cut-Resistant Are the Portwest A650 Gloves?
Having been awarded a Level E rating for cut-resistance (the second best possible rating a glove can achieve), the Portwest A650 Gloves are exceptionally cut-resistant. If your job requires you to work with sharp blades or jagged materials, these gloves will make sure your hands are kept from harm.
Why Is the Thumb/Index Finger Area Re-inforced?
As one of the most vulnerable parts of the hand, particularly to cuts, the crotch between the thumb and index finger is an important area to take care of. These svelte Portwest gloves include a reinforced coating over the thumb and index finger channel, which is perfect for extra protection while carrying sheet metal or panes of glass.
Can I Use My Touchscreen Device Without Removing the Gloves?
These gloves have been designed for use with touchscreens, meaning that you do not have to remove them in order to use your phone or tablet, keeping your hands safer. Whether you are working in a modern, computerised warehouse or are often taking calls while on site, this feature is a real lifesaver.
