Features of the Impacto 501-20 Anti-Vibration Leather Gloves

• Constructed from full grain supple leather for improved tensile strength and durability

• Great for protection from electric, manual and power tools

Why Choose the Impacto 501-20 Anti-Vibration Gloves?

If your line of work involves handling power tools and vibrating machinery, we recommend the Impacto 501-20. With a fingerless style for greater tactile sensitivity, the Impacto 501-20 utilise VEP padding across the palms, which absorbs vibrations and impacts, redistributing shock for greater control.

How Does VEP Padding Absorb Vibrations and Impacts? 

VEPs (Visco-Elastic-Polymer) are solids that mimic the behaviour of liquids, which allows dissipation of shock waves better than any other material. The “solid-liquid” nature of VEP absorbs shock waves in all directions at once, reforming to its original shape at a rate that is slow enough so as not to exert outward pressure that could cause reverberations, but fast enough to regain its original shape before the next shock.

What’s Special About Full Grain Leather?

The Impacto 501-20 are reinforced using full grain leather. Full grain leather is a smoother, durable alternative to ordinary leather, allowing wearers to expect more from their pair of glove liners.
