- Oil
- Scratches
- 100°C Heat
- Light Incisions
100°C Contact Heat Resistance
Polyco Grip It Oil-Resistant Work Gloves allow the user to safely handle material with a temperature not exceeding 100°C for up to fifteen seconds. This means you can safely handle machine parts, pipes, heating systems and hot tools and implements without worrying about burns, scolding and accidental drops.
Thin and Lightweight Latex Coating
What makes Polyco Grip It Wet Gloves so special is they're incredibly thin and lightweight coating. This use of latex doesn't skimp on protection, giving you all the resistance to scuffs, scratches and scrapes that you might need when working with low to medium risks at work.
What's So Special About Latex?
Latex is an incredibly durable, cost-efficient coating. Because of its widespread use and subsequently inexpensive nature, gloves manufactured with it are inexpensive whilst remaining high quality. Latex coated gloves tend to have a higher puncture and tear resistance than their nitrile counterparts.
Our Number One Choice for Mechanics and Engineers
It's no surprise that 100°C of contact heat resistance and amazing grip make these gloves ideal for mechanics and engineers alike. This unique marriage of protections allows you to safely handle hot and heated material without worrying about burns, scolding and drop related accidents.
Innovative "Sanitized" Antimicrobial Treatment
The Sanitized fabric hygiene system helps to reduce the growth and spread of microorganisms that are particularly problematic, such as clostridia and other antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This is particularly beneficial to work gloves because of the build up sweat and the risk of cross contamination from hand to face throughout the day.
Grippy By Name, Grippy By Nature...
There's a reason why they're called Grip It Gloves. Polyco have engineered the slightly textured latex coating on their GIW Gloves to maximise grip in damp and wet conditions, making them an excellent choice for mechanics, factory workers and manual handling pros who frequently find grease, oil and even rain compromising the integrity and strength of their grip.
Breathable and Open Backhand
A breathable backhand makes all the difference when working long hours. It allows air to pass through the glove naturally, releasing any odour, sweat, bacteria and foul smells that may have built up whilst you're hard at work during the day.
