CLOTHING
GET A GRASP ON THE RIGHT GLOVE FOR YOU Eliminate the guesswork when ordering gloves, just ask yourself the following questions:
What Size Gloves Should I Order?
This is very important, because a glove that is either too tight or too loose can be both uncomfortable and hazardous in the workplace.
How to find your size:
Measure the widest part of your hand, starting above your thumb and measuring across the palm and around the back of your hand (see right). The size in inches corresponds to the size of the glove (i.e. if your hand measures 8 inches, then you should wear a size 8 glove).
Which Glove Length Should I Choose?
The length of glove you should order is directly related to the application for which it is to be used. Select glove length by determining the depth to which your arm will be immersed in liquids, or whether it is to be used for splash protection.
32" 18"
10" - 14"
● Wrist and Forearm Lengths (10" - 14") – Protects the hand and wrist for most applications. ● Elbow Lengths (18") – Offers splash protection and immersion capability.
● Shoulder Lengths (32") – Ideal for full arm immersion applications.
Generally, the length of a glove is measured from the tip of the middle finger to the outer edge of the cuff.
What Types of Glove Cuffs Are Available?
There are five different types of cuffs from which to choose. Not all styles are available for every glove – the cuffs differ according to application. The five most common cuff styles are:
Straight Cuff
Safety Cuff
Rolled Cuff
Knit Wrist Cuff
Pinked Cuff
● Straight Cuff – Offer a snug fit around the wrist.
● Rolled Cuff – Added protection to the skin from liquid and chemical run-off. ● Pinked Cuff – Used on knit-lined gloves to minimize raveling.
Flock Lining
Knit Lining
Unlined
● Safety Cuff – A short, open cuff made from stiff material to provide added protection to the wrist area. ● Knit Wrist Cuff – Enhance warmth and provide a close fit to prevent debris from entering glove.
Do Glove Linings Make A Difference?
Linings make a difference in the comfort of the glove and they also have some added benefits that can be of value for certain applications.
● Flock Lining – Shredded cotton or synthetic fiber applied to the interior of the glove. Absorbs moisture making gloves easier to put on and remove.

● Unlined – Offer superior tactile sensitivity and greater dexterity than lined. Unlined gloves with powdered interiors make them easier to put on and remove.
