HPVC Gauntlet - Red: High-Performance Chemical & Industrial Protection

The HPVC Gauntlet - Red is a professional-grade, heavy-duty protective glove designed for maximum safety in hazardous environments. Engineered with High-Performance Polyvinyl Chloride (HPVC), this gauntlet offers a superior barrier against aggressive chemicals, oils, and mechanical risks. Whether you are handling petrochemicals, managing industrial waste, or performing heavy-duty cleaning, these red gauntlets provide the durability and dexterity required for high-stakes tasks.

Featuring a soft cotton interlock lining, the HPVC Gauntlet ensures long-wear comfort by absorbing perspiration and reducing hand fatigue. The vibrant red colour is not just for style; it serves as a high-visibility safety indicator in busy workspaces.

Why Choose HPVC Over Standard PVC?

Standard PVC gloves can become brittle over time when exposed to certain solvents. Our HPVC (High-Performance) blend incorporates advanced plasticizers that maintain flexibility even in cold temperatures and after repeated chemical exposure. This makes them the ideal PPE solution for the petrochemical, agricultural, and manufacturing sectors.

FAQ: Common Industrial

Q: Are these gloves suitable for handling sulphuric acid? A: Yes, the HPVC Gauntlet - Red is rated for high-concentration acids. Specifically, it meets EN 374 standards for chemicals like Sulphuric Acid (96%) and Sodium Hydroxide (40%). Always check the specific breakthrough time for your chemical.

Q: Can these gauntlets be used in food processing? A: While they offer excellent protection against detergents, they are primarily designed for industrial and chemical use. For food-safe applications, we recommend our blue nitrile or vinyl options certified to EN 1186.

Q: How do I clean and maintain my HPVC gauntlets? A: Rinse the exterior with clean water after use to remove chemical residue. Hang them to dry by the fingertips to allow the cotton lining to breathe. Avoid direct heat sources which can degrade the HPVC coating.
