For example, ERGOtech technology is used to produce a glove 25% thinner than most traditional foam nitrile gloves, yet that offers twice the mechanical resistance. This flexible, lightweight construction bends to a user's natural movements, therefore enabling full dexterity in the hands and fingers. This, combined with the gloves smooth, rounded fingertips allow users to retain a high level of tactile sensitivity so they can really feel and control the items they handle.
How do the Maxiflex Coated Gloves Improve Grip?

These gloves have the highest possible level of abrasion resistance, and a very high level of tear resistance. They can therefore be used to handle rough or coarse materials without becoming damaged themselves. As a result, they are likely to last a long time after purchase without breaking.
How Much Grip Do These Gloves Provide
For an outstanding level of grip, the palms of these gloves are coated with nitrile material, and have a micro-cup, non-slip finish. This texturing creates traction between the coating and the items being handled, so users can keep a firm hold on them.

This tight fit also adds some insulating warmth for use in chilly conditions.
Do These Gloves Provide Wrist Protection?
The knitwrist partially covers the wrist to shield it from dirty surfaces. The wrist length varies depending on the size of the gloves, with Size 8 having a 65mm wrist and Size 10 having a 70mm wrist.

Gloves from ATG can be washed safely in the following way:
1. Use commercial laundry soap or detergent (do NOT use dry cleaning solutions!)
2. Wash in warm to medium hot water, do not exceed 104°F (40°C)
3. Wash for 10 minutes
4. Rinse in cold water.
5. Repeat wash and rinse if soiling is especially heavy
6. Rinse in cold water
7. Tumble dry - maximum temperature 140°F (60°C)
When laundering gloves that have especially heavy dirt or grease, include several pieces of heavy canvas in the second wash cycle - friction from the canvas against the gloves helps loosen and remove deep dirt.
IMPORTANT NOTE
During the use of gloves and the laundering process glove performance can and will deteriorate. For critical areas requiring cut and heat resistance tests need to be conducted after use and laundering to ensure that the performance criteria still meet the needs of those using the glove. Safety Gloves can accept no liability once gloves have been washed.
