When Should You Wear Rubber Coated Gloves?

I. Industrial Manufacturing & Mechanical Maintenance Scenarios

Core Needs: Oil Resistance, Cut Resistance, Puncture Resistance, Strong Grip

• Specific Tasks:
  1. Auto repair (oil changes, engine disassembly, transmission maintenance), agricultural machinery repair
  2. Mechanical processing (lathe/milling machine workpiece handling, metal part grinding, bolt tightening)
  3. Equipment maintenance (motor disassembly, hydraulic system overhaul, pipeline installation)
• Recommended Material: Nitrile coating (sandy/foamed for oil resistance and no degradation), nitrile + cut-resistant liner (HPPE/aramid)
• Core Protection: Resists erosion from engine oil/hydraulic oil, prevents cuts/punctures from metal burrs and debris, and maintains stable grip even in oily environments.
• HORBEST Advantage: HORBEST’s sandy nitrile rubber coated gloves with HPPE liner integrate superior oil resistance and ANSI A4+ cut protection, making them the top choice for automotive and mechanical professionals.

II. Construction & Heavy-Duty Handling Scenarios

Core Needs: Abrasion Resistance, Impact Resistance, Puncture Resistance, Strong Dry Grip

• Specific Tasks:
  1. Construction (handling bricks/reinforcement steel, scaffolding lashing, glass curtain wall installation)
  2. Heavy-duty handling (carton stacking, wood/pipeline transportation, construction waste cleaning)
  3. Outdoor engineering (road maintenance, pipeline laying, stone processing)
• Recommended Material: Latex coating (crinkled for strong dry grip), thick nitrile coating + TPR impact-resistant backhand
• Core Protection: Withstands abrasion from rough surfaces, cushions impact from heavy objects on the back of the hand, and prevents punctures from sharp objects (nails, gravel).
• HORBEST Advantage: HORBEST’s crinkled latex rubber coated gloves feature TPR armor on the backhand, offering dual protection against impact and abrasion—ideal for high-intensity construction sites.

III. Electronics & Precision Manufacturing Scenarios

Core Needs: Anti-Static (ESD), High Sensitivity, Dust-Free, Fingerprint-Proof

• Specific Tasks:
  1. Electronic assembly (PCB soldering, chip/resistor installation, mobile phone/computer assembly)
  2. Precision instruments (optical lens calibration, micro-motor debugging, medical device assembly)
  3. Cleanroom operations (semiconductor manufacturing, laboratory testing, food packaging)
• Recommended Material: PU coating (ultra-thin for sensitive touch), PU + conductive fibers (anti-static)
• Core Protection: Avoids electrostatic breakdown of sensitive components, reduces product contamination from fingerprints/dust, and does not compromise dexterity for fine operations.
• HORBEST Advantage: HORBEST’s conductive PU rubber coated gloves meet cleanroom standards (Class 100) and ESD requirements, ensuring safe and precise handling of electronic components.

IV. Agriculture & Horticulture Scenarios

Core Needs: Puncture Resistance, Chemical Resistance, Stain Resistance, Breathability

• Specific Tasks:
  1. Gardening (pruning thorny plants, soil turning & fertilizing, flower transplanting)
  2. Agricultural planting (pesticide spraying, fruit/vegetable harvesting, foliage cleaning)
  3. Livestock breeding (feed mixing, animal care, manure cleaning)
• Recommended Material: Nitrile coating (pesticide-resistant), thick latex coating (puncture-resistant), semi-dipped nitrile (breathable & stain-resistant)
• Core Protection: Blocks thorns/branches, isolates pesticide/fertilizer corrosion, and prevents contact with soil bacteria.
• HORBEST Advantage: HORBEST’s semi-dipped nitrile rubber coated gloves combine breathability with puncture resistance, keeping hands dry during long hours of outdoor work.

V. Chemical & Laboratory Scenarios

Core Needs: Chemical Corrosion Resistance, Leakage Prevention, Acid/Alkali Resistance

• Specific Tasks:
  1. Chemical operations (diluting acid/alkali solutions, handling chemical reagents, raw material mixing)
  2. Laboratory testing (sample collection, reagent preparation, glassware cleaning)
  3. Cleaning & disinfection (industrial equipment acid/alkali washing, medical environment disinfection)
• Recommended Material: Fully dipped nitrile coating (acid/alkali-resistant), thickened nitrile (leakage-proof)
• Core Protection: Resists erosion from weak acids, alkalis, and organic solvents, preventing chemical liquid penetration.
• HORBEST Advantage: HORBEST’s fully dipped nitrile rubber coated gloves comply with EN ISO 374 standards, providing reliable protection against a wide range of chemicals.

VI. Daily Cleaning & Household Scenarios

Core Needs: Water Resistance, Stain Resistance, Detergent Corrosion Resistance

• Specific Tasks:
  1. Household cleaning (dishwashing, window cleaning, bathroom descaling)
  2. Industrial cleaning (equipment oil wiping, workshop floor cleaning)
  3. Waste disposal (garbage sorting, trash bin handling)
• Recommended Material: Latex coating (excellent water resistance), nitrile coating (detergent-resistant)
• Core Protection: Isolates water and detergent irritation, prevents stain adhesion, and protects hands from dryness and cracking.
• HORBEST Advantage: HORBEST’s general-purpose rubber coated gloves are soft and flexible, suitable for both household and light industrial cleaning tasks.

VII. Other Special Scenarios

1. Logistics & Warehousing: Parcel sorting, cargo handling (HORBEST’s foamed nitrile rubber coated gloves for anti-slip and wear resistance)
2. Food Processing: Meat cutting, fruit/vegetable cleaning (HORBEST’s food-grade PU/nitrile rubber coated gloves, non-toxic and odorless)
3. DIY & Handicrafts: Woodworking, leatherworking, model assembly (HORBEST’s latex/PU rubber coated gloves, balancing flexibility and protection)

Key Selection Principles

1. Prioritize nitrile coating for oily environments, latex coating for dry/rough surfaces, and PU coating for fine operations.
2. Choose nitrile material when handling chemicals (latex is easily corroded), and avoid latex coating if you have allergies (contains natural proteins).
3. For high-risk scenarios (e.g., cutting, impact), select gloves with cut-resistant liners (HPPE/aramid) or TPR impact-resistant structures.
