Posted By GavinR Hi, I have a little dilemma. We have a process requiring the operator to conduct some work with work equipment where there is possibility of contact injury with rough metal surfaces, etc on metal bits so we require them to wear mechanical protection gloves (kevlar) for this process. Risk is low. Also there is a potential contact with chemical dust on surface of the enclosure. The leather kevlar are hence not appropriate for this operation. Apart from wearing disposable gloves under the mechanical gloves and disposing of after use does anyone know of a glove that would be suitable for both? Cheers

Posted By Paul Leadbetter Have you talked to any of your suppliers? If they can't help, try Chris Packham at Enviroderm: www.enviroderm.co.uk. What he doesn't know aboujt gloves isn't worth knowing. Paul
