Granberg 106.1690K Cow Leather Welding Gloves

Product Overview

The Granberg 106.1690K are high-quality welding gloves crafted from cow leather with a cowsplit back of the hand. These gloves are fully lined with fleece for comfort and are sewn with durable Kevlar thread to withstand the rigors of welding environments. They are specifically designed to protect the wearer's hands against splashes of molten metal and are suitable for all-round welding applications.

Safety and Usage

Before use, always inspect the gloves for any signs of damage or wear. If the gloves are damaged, discard them and select a new pair. These gloves are not intended for use where there is a risk of entanglement with moving machine parts. While they offer puncture resistance, they may not be suitable for protection against very sharp objects like hypodermic needles. If you have a known latex allergy, please be aware that these gloves may contain latex and seek medical advice if a reaction occurs.

Do not expose the gloves to open flames. If the gloves become wet, do not use them to handle hot objects, as this significantly increases the risk of burns. In the event of a molten metal splash, leave the work area immediately and remove the gloves. Note that in an emergency, these gloves may be difficult to remove quickly due to their design.

Maintenance and Storage

Proper care extends the life of your protective equipment. Gloves should be stored in their original packaging, away from direct sunlight. If the gloves become contaminated, their quality may deteriorate. Cleaning or disinfecting can negatively affect the performance levels of the gloves. If cleaning is necessary, use only a damp cloth; however, be aware that this will not stop permeation processes. Unused gloves, when stored correctly, maintain their mechanical properties for up to five years from the date of manufacture.

Electrical Safety

When used for arc welding, these gloves do not provide protection against electric shock caused by defective equipment or live working. The electrical resistance of the gloves is significantly reduced if they are wet, dirty, or soaked with sweat, which increases the risk of electric shock. Always evaluate the risks of your specific work environment before use.
