What Does This Mean?
These gloves have the highest possible level of abrasion resistance, and a very high level of tear resistance. They can therefore protect users against scratches and scrapes without incurring damage themselves. This shows they are suitable for handling rough or coarse objects and will last for a long time without losing their protective qualities.
How Much Grip Do These Gloves Provide
GRIPtech technology designed by ATG ensures users can maintain a secure grip on both large and small objects. Their palm coatings have a micro-cup finish for a more controlled grip, while their micro dots increase the amount of traction between the gloves and the objects being handled.

Featuring an extra-thin design that utilises the latest in knitting technology, the gloves allow for an impressive level of touch sensitivity. They have smooth, rounded fingertips and fit closely against the hand so users are able to really feel the items they work with. This construction makes them suitable for fine and precision handling tasks.
How Comfortable Are the MaxiFlex Endurance Gloves

This enhances dexterity as well as tactile sensitivity, helping to reduce the risk of hand fatigue following rigorous or repetitive handling tasks. While they may be thin, ErgoTech ensures the gloves offer resilient protection against physical risks.
