What Is Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS)?

Hand-arm vibration syndrome is the name given to a collection of conditions associated with numbness, sensation loss and tingled brought on by prolonged exposure to vibrating power tools and industrial equipment. If not guarded against, HAVS can cause serious medical problems and prevent you from working.

How Do UCi VBX Safety Gloves Prevent HAVS?

Thanks to their densely packed latex palm coating, UCi Anti-Vibration Work Safety Gloves are able to drastically mitigate the amount of vibration waves that are transmitted from the power-tool you're using through and up into your arm. This palm coating is vital, as it absorbs these tremors to prevent the onset of chronic and untreatable conditions like hand-arm vibration syndrome. 

Which Size UCi Vibration Safe HAVS Gloves Are Right for Me?

UCi HAVS Safety Gloves are available in two different sizes. To find the perfect one for you, simply measure the circumference of your palm (ignoring the thumb area) and the length of your hand as indicated in the image below.

Once you have your measurements, please consult the sizing chart below to find the correct size for your hand.

Mitigate the Negative Effect of Vibration Waves

Shielding against HAVS is a must. The nasty symptoms of the condition include consistent tremors, sensation loss, rattling, numb fingertips and an inability to correctly control fine motor function in the fingers.

UCi have developed their VBX HAVS Work Safety Gloves with this nasty condition mind. Thanks to their lightweight and flexible design, there's no real reason not to wear them when operating vibrating machinery.

Close Knit Design Enhances Breathability

Breathability matters when you're working long days on-site. UCi use a breathable and flexible close-knit foundation fabric in their HAVS Gloves, which encourages air to flow freely through the glove, preventing the build up of nasty odour and perspiration as you work.
