Fingerless gloves or "glovelettes" are garments worn on the hands which resemble regular gloves in most ways, except that the finger columns are half-length and opened, allowing the top-half of the wearer's fingers to be shown.
A glove is a garment covering the hand, with separate sheaths or openings for each finger including the thumb. Gloves protect and comfort hands against cold or heat, damage by friction, abrasion or chemicals, and disease; or in turn to provide a guard for what a bare hand should not touch.
Nitrile smooth half-coated gloves are puncture resistant and chemically resistant. Even when wet, it provides better tactile feedback, grip, and abrasion resistance. Punctures, wounds, snags, abrasions, oils, and fuels are all resistant to nitrile covering.
What are coated gloves used for?
It's used mostly to provide cut-resistance, and it still allows for sensitivity. It works well for electronic and cleanroom industries. It's resistant to oil, solvent, fat, grease, gasoline (unlike rubber), oxidation, and ozone, but is not resistant to hot water, and shouldn't be used above 79°C (175°F).
Gloves are a type of personal protective equipment (PPE). Other types of PPE are gowns, masks, face shields, protective eyewear, shoe and head covers. Gloves create a barrier between germs and your hands. Wearing gloves in the hospital helps prevent the spread of germs.
| Thickness | Glove thickness is usually given in the unit mils, which is equal to one one-thousandth of an inch; therefore, a glove that is 10 mil, is 0.010 inches thick. A thicker gauge glove will provide more protection than a thinner glove of the same material, but often at the expense of touch-sensitivity and dexterity. |
| Specs | A glove of 3 mil and below is considered thin. Gloves at 4 mils (like our HandCare blue nitrile gloves) or 6 mils (like our Advance Plus orange nitrile gloves) are considered medium thickness for nitrile gloves, ideal for those who need a balance of protection and dexterity. |
