Choose the Right Work Glove for the Job
Ensuring safety and comfort on the job starts with the right work gloves. At J. J. Keller, we recognize that different tasks demand various levels of hand protection and dexterity, and choosing the appropriate gloves is crucial for safety and efficiency. Our large collection of safety gloves caters to diverse industries and applications. Prioritizing quality and durability, our gloves not only safeguard your hands but also enhance grip and flexibility, allowing you to work confidently.
General Purpose Gloves
General purpose gloves are versatile and made from materials like polyester, spandex, leather and synthetic blends, offering different levels of comfort and durability. Leather driving gloves offer durability and comfort for tasks requiring a strong grip and protection against abrasions and punctures. Coated gloves, with nitrile, latex or polyurethane, enhance grip, abrasion resistance, and protection against liquids. Uncoated gloves provide breathability and flexibility, ideal for tasks requiring dexterity and comfort.
Cut-resistant Gloves
Cut-resistant gloves are vital for tasks involving sharp objects. These gloves are made from high-performance materials like HPPE, Bladestopâ„¢, or steel fiber, which offers superior cut resistance and puncture resistance, safeguarding hands from blades and sharp materials. Abrasion resistance is another key feature, ensuring durability and protection while maintaining dexterity. These safety gloves are rigorously tested to meet industry standards, making them suitable for manufacturing, construction and other hazardous environments.
Cold Protection Gloves
Cold weather work gloves, also known as cold protection gloves, are designed to keep hands warm and functional in freezing conditions. These gloves typically feature insulated materials like fleece or wool, providing excellent thermal protection. Many cold weather work gloves also incorporate additional layers, ensuring hands stay dry and comfortable. Reinforced palms and fingers enhance grip and durability, making these gloves ideal for outdoor work, construction, cold storage, and other tasks in cold environments.
Chemical-resistant Gloves
Chemical-resistant gloves are essential for handling hazardous substances, providing protection against a wide range of chemicals. These gloves are typically made from materials like neoprene, latex, nitrile, latex and PVC, preventing skin contact and chemical burns from acids, solvents and other harmful chemicals. Ideal for lab work, cleaning and industrial process, these gloves often feature textured surfaces for improved grip and dexterity, allowing for precise handling of tools and materials.
Food Safe Gloves
FDA-approved food safe gloves are essential for maintaining safety and hygiene in food handling environments. These gloves are made from materials like nitrile, latex, polyethyene and vinyl, which comply with FDA regulations under 21 CFR Part 177. They prevent contamination and the transfer of harmful substances to food, ensuring safe food processing, preparation and service. Textured surfaces enhance grip and dexterity, making them ideal for precise handling of tools and materials in food industry applications.
Heat Protection Gloves
Heat protection work gloves are designed to protect hands from high temperatures, safeguarding against burns. Made from materials like leather, nomex and kevlar, these gloves provide excellent insulation and durability, essential for tasks involving welding, foundry work, and handling hot objects. Many heat-resistant gloves also feature reinforced palms and fingers for added protection and grip, along with reinforced stitching that enhances longevity.
Mechanics Gloves
Mechanics gloves are designed to provide protection and dexterity for tasks involving intricate work with tools and machinery. These gloves often feature durable materials like synthetic leather and spandex, offering flexibility and a snug fit. Impact resistance is a key feature, with reinforced knuckles and padded areas to absorb shock and protect against injuries from sudden impacts. Mechanics gloves typically have enhanced grip surfaces, making them ideal for precision work in automotive and mechanical settings.
Electrical Gloves
Electrical gloves protect against electrical shocks and burns, ensuring the wearer’s hands remain safe while handling live wires or electrical components. Made from high-quality insulating materials like rubber, they provide a barrier that prevents electrical currents from passing through to the skin. They come in various classes, each rated for different voltage levels, ensuring appropriate protection for different tasks.
Welding Gloves
Welding gloves are critical to protect welders from the intense heat, sparks and molten metal encountered during welding tasks. These gloves are typically made form durable materials like leather, which can withstand high temperatures and provide excellent abrasion resistance. They often feature reinforced stitching and padded areas to enhance durability and comfort. The design of welding gloves ensures that welders can maintain dexterity and grip while working, allowing for precise control of tools and materials.
Disposable Gloves
In healthcare and sanitation, disposable gloves are essential for hygiene and safety. Typically made from latex, nitrile or vinyl, they provide a secure fit, tactile sensitivity, and offer excellent barrier protection against contaminants. They are designed for single-use, providing a convenient and cost-effective solution for tasks that require frequent glove changes to prevent cross-contamination. They also offer a barrier against chemicals, pathogens and other contaminants, ensuring the wearer’s hands remain clean and protected.
