Suitable Applications for Polyco Taskmaster Chemically Resistant Insulation Latex Gloves

This allows the user to safely pick up, handle and transfer highly dangerous and volatile material without worrying about burns and heat penetration.

What Are the Benefits of a Latex Coating?

Latex is an incredibly durable, cost-efficient coating. Because of its widespread use and inexpensive nature, gloves manufactured with it are inexpensive whilst remaining high quality. 

Polyco Taskmaster Gloves

Warm, Soft and Comfortable 100% Cotton Flock Lining

A pair of gloves are only as good as the period of time they allow you to wear them for. Manufactured with comfort in mind, Polyco Laboratory Work Gloves are designed with a cotton flock interior lining that is soft and comfortable, allowing you to wear them for as long as you need them without risking itching, irritation and damage to the skin.

Food Contact Safe

Certified and accredited under EN 1186, Polyco Taskmaster Chemically Resistant Gloves are ideal for use in environments where you will come into contact with foodstuffs. Manufactured with a dexterity enhancing, stippled latex palm coating, Polyco Chemically Resistant Gloves are perfect for food handling, manufacturing, packing and shipping.

Under EN 388, Polyco Taskmaster Chemical Gloves have achieved the maximum level 4 rating, demonstrating just how hardwearing they are. Offering incredible durability, they are designed to withstand the abrasions, erosion, rubbing and scratching that are commonly  encountered in the workplace.

What is EN 388?

What is EN 388?

You might have noticed that this product adheres to EN standard EN 388. EN standards ensure that the product you are buying meets the safety standards of the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), the highest standards organisation recognised by and working on behalf of the European Union. To pass any EN standard, a PPE product must undergo some of the most rigorous safety tests around.

There are many EN standards that our gloves adhere to. However, the EN standard that we’re concerned about here is EN 388. EN 388 stands for Mechanical Resistance, and informs you of your gloves' resistance to abrasion, cuts, tears and punctures.

How Do I Read the EN 388 Score?

Simply speaking, the higher the score that this product achieves, the better the product will be at resisting that hazard. Products will score between Level 0 and Level 4 for abrasion, tears and punctures, and if they weren’t tested for that hazard you will see N/A written instead of a number.

Cuts are a little different and, with the EN 388 standard rewritten in 2016, it means that gloves will either be tested to cut resistance or ISO cut resistance (sometimes called TDM cut resistance). Gloves tested to cut resistance will score between Level 0 and Level 5, and gloves tested to ISO cut resistance will achieve a score between Level A and Level F with the higher letter offering better cut protection.

EN 407 stands for Protective Gloves Against Thermal Risks, and informs you of your gloves' resistance to burns, contact heat, convective heat, radiant heat and small and large splashes of molten metal.

How Do I read the EN 407 Score?

Reading your EN 407 score is simple, as each hazard will be provided with a score between Level 0 and Level 4. Level 0 means the gloves failed against that particular hazard, and Level 4 means that they provide the best protection possible against that hazard.

I had been looking for some heavy duty household gloves for ages. I had tried all the supermarkets and the well known online go-to supplier, all to no avail . Their so called heavy duty gloves lasted no time and the sizing was often way out.
Thank goodness I found the SafetyGloves.co.uk – a great range, good quality, reasonable prices and fast delivery.
Do give them a try, you'll be glad you did.

Heavy Duty Outside work
Rating:
26 April 2020  | 

I use these for outside work, gardening, washing the car, when I want something waterproof and heavy duty.
Delivery took a little while, but bearing in mind the COVID-19 situations and self isolation issues with staff I wasn't expecting any different. More importantly I was kept informed as to the situation.
I asked for the item to be left in a safe place and this is what happened.
