Gauntlet news

Marigold Industrial has enhanced its specialist Dry Box Gauntlet gloves with the launch of new product literature and will extend the range still further during 2012/13.

With a choice of natural rubber gauntlets and mitts, in addition to Neoprene gauntlets and reinforced gauntlets for use in sand and shot blasting dry box applications, the range has been designed for use in sectors such as chemical and medical research, pharmaceutical and electronics industries and for vapour blasting.

Available in different port sizes, lengths, weights and finishes, benefits claimed include: Ambidextrous hand shape, excellent dexterity and flexibility, highly resistant to most acids, alcohols, oils, lubricants, alkalis, hydrocarbons and organic chemicals, and an operating temperature range of -30 to 50°C.

Items will fit most commercially available dry box cabinets.

Chemical Category manager, John Thorne, says: "The new literature highlights the features and benefits of the existing range, a range we plan to develop further with the launch of additional products and solutions."
