With an extended cuff and a foundation fabric that is repellent to water and oil, these gloves are an excellent addition to any workplace wardrobe.

Water and Oil Repellent Design

Whether you work in chemical manufacturing or automotive handling, you want your gloves to be resistant to sticky, nasty substances. Ejendals Tegera 8163 Chemical Safety Gloves are designed to resist sticking, making them resistant to clingy oils, food waste, dirt, chemicals and fats.

Extended Cuff Design

Designed to prevent chemical splashing damaging the skin, Ejendals Tegera 8163 Safety Gloves use an extended cuff to further shield the user against harm. Extending up the forearm, this cuff works to do what other safety gloves cannot and protect the user all the way up to their forearm.

Latex Coating Benefits

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.
