Description
Anti-static gloves are nothing more than a piece of protective work equipment. Depending on the variety, they are used in different areas of production, including the construction industry, light and heavy processing industries. They differ in raw materials and have special performance characteristics, making them suitable for use in different conditions.
Anti-static gloves are soft to the touch. They are highly elastic and non-slip during use. With their help, it is easy to clean surfaces from dust and dirt. In addition, they are used when working with plastics, films, printed posters, as well as optical instruments that need to be handled with the utmost care.
Anti-static gloves aren't just for protecting surfaces from fingerprints and scratches. They are used when working with oiled parts, in the jewelry industry, as well as in the assembly and packaging of electrical products. In addition, they are indispensable in the repair of cell phones and in the assembly of computers.
They are produced using a seamless method, they stretch in width and length, they are dense and thin viscous. Models have a wide cuff that secures the glove to the wrist. The breathable type of material prevents fogging.
How to choose and use?
Choosing an anti-static ESD glove is not easy. For them to be effective, when buying, it is necessary to take into account the specifics of the purpose and type of work. For example, electronics models should be lint-free and suitable for the specific environment. In addition, you have to rely on the price.
For example, models with cut protection cost about 1160 rubles on average. The price of nitrile antistatic gloves today exceeds 7,000 rubles. The most budgetary - simple models, on average, their price varies from 114 to 185 rubles. Conductive gloves made of polyester and carbon fiber cost 185 rubles.
In this case, the measurement system can be either metric or inch. In addition, the European size is also on sale. The size range is variable, so you can choose the exact size for high-quality and full-fledged work.
It is necessary to choose this or that product correctly. For example, models with a thread have their own specifics. These models are not only anti-slip: they dissipate the charge, preventing possible destruction or damage, for example, of the microcircuit. Their advantage is their resistance to dust and the ability to dissipate a 5000 charge in 3/10 seconds.
For oily and greased surfaces, it is worth using products with a polyurethane coating. Antistatic models with a covering of the entire palm part are good for working with electrical appliances (including smartphones, computers). They are characterized by a high capture rate.
If repairing, handling or cleaning small parts is planned, antistatic gloves with a coating on the finger area are required. They are also indispensable when working with carrying materials with a sliding surface type. Others try to purchase products with goatskin inserts. These gloves are made in white and blue.
You need to buy a pair in a trusted store with a good reputation. Products of famous brands are of high quality. They are distinguished by a dense structure and minimal thickness, no visible defects and high elasticity.
Gloves should be worn on clean, dry hands. Do not work in wet and dirty products.Depending on the type of work, in addition to wearing gloves, it is necessary to use grounding means for users. The resistance between the person and the ground can be provided by wearing special shoes.

Criterias of choice
Nylon gloves will be useful to anyone whose activities can lead to injury. They provide hand protection and maximum control over the situation thanks to their tactile sensitivity. Product selection criteria vary by industry.
- Electronic industry. For engineers who come into contact with small parts during the manufacture of microcircuits, gloves with antistatic agents are suitable. Maximum sensitivity will allow you to clearly control the process. In case of contact with chemicals or solder, the worker will not be injured.
- Construction. Excellent application area for PVC nylon gloves. They can be in contact with any finishing materials, even those that have chemical activity. And also gloves are comfortable when cleaning construction debris. Varnish-and-paint work will become much easier, because the substances do not have to be wiped off by hand with solvents. What's more, gloves protect against cuts, splinters and other injuries that often accompany construction activities.
- Medicine and Pharmacology. Suitable for laboratory staff who are forced to come into contact with various reagents. It is also a great way to protect your hands when servicing equipment.
- Agriculture. Used when working with fertilizers, protect hands from chemicals. Gloves will come in handy during the maintenance of various units.
- Car service. This work is closely related to chemicals and petroleum products. Gloves make it much easier to work with oiled parts, ensuring a secure grip. Nylon does not react to gasoline, its contact with the product does not spoil the material.
It is important for the builder that gloves protect hands and do not interfere with the full grasp of objects. When working with a variety of electronic parts, you will need very thin anti-static nylon products

Anti-static gloves can be classified in several ways. For example, they are white, gray and even black in color. These products are very durable and can withstand up to 50 washes without losing their performance. However, they vary in the type of manufacture and design.
Gloves are made from nylon and polyester. In order for them to neutralize static energy, thin carbon fibers are added to the base material. This increases the wear resistance and durability of products. Knitted lint-free gloves are used in microelectronics, surgical departments and pharmaceutical companies.
The simplest anti-static nylon models are characterized by a uniform texture. They neutralize static electricity and protect the entire palm. By the type of manufacture, products are knitted from nylon or polyester threads or sewn from these materials. At the same time, knitted models are considered the best, since they fit the hand more tightly and provide better tactile sensitivity of the fingers.
Products differ in the value of the surface resistance of the material. Based on this, they are dissipative and conductive. Products of the first type dissipate the charge, the second - conduct it. Models of the first type use an artificial thread saturated with carbon fiber. Conductive varieties are produced by adding thin copper wire to synthetic filament. In order to avoid slipping during work with small parts, the base material is coated with a special polyurethane compound. Depending on the variety, they can cover the areas of the fingertips or completely of the palms.
Description
Nylon is durable and thin.The work gloves are comfortable and lightweight and provide maximum finger sensitivity.
There are many benefits to nylon products.
- Ease, thanks to which a person does not get tired of them.
- Resistance to aggressive external conditions.
- High strength and long service life even with regular heavy loads.
- High elasticity that cotton counterparts do not have.
- Easy care consists in washing the garment at a water temperature of 30 ° C.
- Resistant to chemicals such as alkalis and acids.
- Large assortment of types and colors. White, black and blue models are especially popular.
- Fit the hand, completely repeating its shape.
It is worth noting that nylon reacts poorly to high temperatures and chlorine-containing substances. When gloves are modified, some types lose their breathability. In this case, hands will sweat during prolonged continuous use of the product. Elastic cuffs prevent the items from slipping off the hands, processing with double cotton thread ensures a secure fit.
