Differences between labor protection gloves and common gloves and differences between labor protection gloves and protective gloves

1. The difference between labor protection gloves and ordinary gloves.

 

The biggest difference between labor protection gloves and ordinary gloves is that labor protection gloves have special protective functions, for different working environments, there are bound to be different protection needs, the functional requirements of labor protection gloves are not the same. These functions are not available in other ordinary gloves.

Based on the requirements of different working environments, common labor protection gloves include insulation gloves, anti-cutting gloves, acid-alkali gloves, oil-resistant gloves, welder gloves, anti-vibration gloves, flame-retardant gloves, anti-static gloves, and dust-free gloves.

 

The most important thing is its protective characteristics, in some dangerous work occasions, you need to use these special functions of the labor protection gloves, labor protection gloves are the most basic equipment to ensure the safety of our hands, but also the most common in our work and life in a glove.

 

In different use scenarios, it is necessary to choose labor protection gloves with different protective properties, such as in the production of some chemicals, there will be special requirements for the acid and alkaline resistance of gloves, and electric welding gloves pay more attention to the puncture resistance, aging resistance, fire resistance and low temperature resistance of gloves, only according to different working environments to choose suitable labor protection gloves. To avoid unnecessary danger.

 

In normal life, our requirements for labor protection gloves are more biased to applicability and cost performance, do not need so high functional requirements, generally only need to meet the basic needs of some ordinary operations in our usual home life, such as gardening and pruning, woodworking, construction sites, car maintenance, handling and packaging, motorcycle riding and other scenes.

 

2. Difference between labor protection gloves and protective gloves.

 

Labor protection gloves and protective gloves although their functions are somewhat similar, there are some differences in some aspects.

 

·Functional difference

 

Labor protection gloves are gloves designed to protect workers' hands from certain physical, chemical and biological hazards. They are widely used in a variety of industries such as construction, manufacturing, healthcare and food processing. Labor protection glove are mainly used to provide basic hand protection, such as preventing injuries such as cutting, puncturing and wear.

Protective gloves are a more specialized type of gloves that are designed for specific work environments and risks. Protective gloves usually have a higher level of protection and special functions, such as fire, cut, chemical, electrical insulation and anti-static. They are widely used in hazardous working conditions in industries such as power, petrochemicals, life sciences and nuclear energy.

 

·Material difference

 

Labor protection gloves are usually made of one or more materials, such as cotton, polyester, latex, leather, and polyethylene. These materials are soft, breathable, easy to clean and are suitable for general working conditions and mild physical injuries.

 

1) Cotton gloves: good air permeability, moisture absorption, suitable for long-term wear.

 

2) Polyester gloves: Wear resistant, suitable for some heavy duty work.

 

3) Latex gloves: Durable, soft, non-slip and grip.

 

4) Leather gloves: Wear and Pierce resistant, suitable for jobs requiring advanced protection.

 

 

The materials of protective gloves are more diverse to meet different hazardous environments and work requirements.

 

1) Fireproof gloves: usually made of refractory materials, such as polyimide fiber, glass fiber, etc., can provide effective fire protection in high temperature environments.

 

2) Cut-resistant gloves: Usually made of high-performance fibers such as glass fiber, high-strength polyethylene fiber and steel wire, which can protect the hands from injuries caused by knives and sharp objects.

 

3) Chemical-resistant gloves: Usually made of special materials that are resistant to chemical solvents and corrosive substances, such as nitrile, neoprene, chlorinated grease and polyethylene, to prevent chemical damage to the hand.

 

4) Electrical insulation gloves: Used in the power industry, usually made of rubber or insulating materials, can prevent the conduction of current and provide electrical insulation protection.

 

5) Esd gloves: Used to prevent electrostatic discharge, usually made of conductive materials, such as fiber or polyester, coated with conductive coating.

 

Summary: Labor protection gloves are mainly used for basic hand protection in general working environments, while protective gloves are more focused on advanced protection and special functions in special working environments. In terms of material, labor protection gloves are usually made of cotton, polyester, latex and leather, etc., while protective gloves are selected according to the specific risks and requirements, more special and advanced materials such as refractory materials, high-performance fibers and insulation materials.
