Protective Gloves – Choose the Right Hand Protection

Types of protective gloves by purpose

Gardening gloves like GARDENA Rukavice za ruže/ vel L GA11541-20 feature reinforced palms for handling thorny plants, while mechanic gloves offer cut and abrasion resistance. Chemical work requires nitrile or latex gloves with appropriate solvent resistance ratings.

Materials and their properties

Leather gloves provide excellent durability and natural flexibility for general work tasks. Nitrile coatings deliver superior grip in wet conditions and oil resistance, while latex offers elasticity and movement precision. Synthetic fibers like Kevlar protect against cuts when working with sharp tools.

Protection levels and standards

The EN 388 standard defines four protection levels: abrasion, cut, tear and puncture resistance. Gloves marked 4544 offer the highest protection in all four categories, while 2142 indicates basic protection suitable for lighter tasks. Brands like WOMAX, Ingco and Atg offer gloves with clearly marked protection ratings.

How to select the right size and type

Proper fit is crucial – oversized gloves reduce precision, while tight ones restrict circulation. Measure your palm circumference and hand length according to the manufacturer's sizing chart. For precision assembly work choose thin nitrile gloves, while construction tasks require thicker material with reinforced knuckles.

Maintenance and service life

Work gloves require regular washing according to manufacturer instructions to maintain protective properties. Inspect them before each use for damage – any holes or cracks reduce protection level. Quality gloves from brands like Schuller, HAUS and Wurth last several months of intensive use with proper care.
