Description
Laatu fitter’s glove 1015 is an unlined fitter’s glove with a palm of goatskin leather and a back of Britex fabric. The glove is classified as a CE category 1 item of personal protective equipment, intended for protection against minimal risks.
Goatskin is thin and supple, so the glove keeps a good fingertip feel when handling small parts. The flexible, breathable fabric back lets air through and makes the glove lighter than models with a leather back.
Being unlined, the glove fits the hand closely, and the straight cuff makes it easy to put on and take off. The glove suits installation, assembly and warehouse work where accuracy and light mechanical protection are needed.
The glove meets the standard for general requirements for protective gloves, EN 420.
Intended use and suitability:
The Laatu fitter’s glove 1015 is designed for dry work where fingertip feel and protection against abrasion and dirt are needed.
- Installation work: in electrical, HVAC and furniture installation, the thin leather palm lets you handle screws, fasteners and small parts without taking the glove off.
- Assembly: the light construction and close fit suit repetitive assembly tasks where the glove is worn for long periods.
- Warehouse and logistics: the leather palm protects against abrasion when handling cardboard boxes and light items.
