Skytec Torq Cyclone Abrasion- and Impact-Resistant Oil Grip Gloves
Working in dangerous and oily environments like refineries or offshore drill sites, it's important to get a safe and secure grip, while also keeping your hands protected. The Skytec Torq Cyclone Abrasion- and Impact-Resistant Oil Grip combine a double-dipped, sandy nitrile coating, with TPR protection patches, so you can get the job done and stay safe while doing it.
The ergonomic placement of the TPR zones gives you reinforced protection where you need it most, without compromising the tactile movement of your hands. This along with their flexible lining leaves your you free and dextrous enough for precision work, whether your hands are a bit greasy or submerged in oil.
