| Ansell launches AlphaTEC gloves Ansell offers new AlphaTEC gloves, the chemical-resistant gloves using Ansell Grip Technology. These gloves are designed as a liquid-proof product requiring less force to grip oily or wet objects. New AlphaTEC gloves integrate microscopic channels in a patented ultra-thin nitrile layer to direct fluids away from the grip surface, leaving a significant dry contact area that provides almost the same grip that is possible under fluid-free conditions. This improved adherence promotes greater worker comfort, while minimizing stress and fatigue. AlphaTEC gloves are ideal for working with chemicals because they offer a unique combination of grip, chemical resistance, flexibility and dexterity. The new gloves are recommended for light assembly and handling operations in environments with potential chemical hazards, including the chemical industry, printing, mining, aerospace, agriculture, oilfield exploration and production, and automotive and/or OEM markets. The AlphaTEC production process ensures an exceptionally safe chemical barrier. The gloves' polymer coating does not penetrate into the liner during the manufacturing process, which results in consistent protection for the skin. AlphaTEC's nitrile coating is also designed for greater flexibility. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
