Work gloves for assembly, maintenance, material handling, food service and cleanup. This section covers disposable nitrile, latex and vinyl gloves, knit gloves with nitrile, polyurethane or latex coatings, cut-resistant gloves, leather drivers, and insulated or winter styles. Disposable gloves are usually sold by the box and graded by mil thickness; reusable gloves come by the pair or the dozen.

What to check before you order

  • Cut level. Cut-resistant gloves are rated on the ANSI/ISEA 105 scale, from A1 up to A9. Match the level to the edges your crew handles.
  • Coating and grip. Nitrile coatings hold up to oils, polyurethane gives a thin feel for fine work, and foam or sandy finishes add grip on wet or oily parts.
  • Thickness for disposables. A thicker mil gives more durability; a thinner glove gives more touch. Check whether you need powder-free or food-safe gloves.
  • Chemical exposure. Check the glove maker's chemical resistance data against the product's safety data sheet before using a glove for chemical work.
  • Size. A loose glove snags and a tight one tears. Stock a range of sizes.

Common questions

What cut level do I need?

It depends on the task and your hazard assessment. Light handling may need only a low ANSI level, while sheet metal and glass work usually call for higher levels. Your safety program should set the minimum.
