Mechanical Hazard Resistance 

These ratings show that UCi WGR Gloves have excellent all round mechanical hazard resistance. They will protect against bumps, scrapes, abrasions and cuts thanks to their heavy set leather design.

How Do UCi WGR Gauntlet Gloves Protect Your Hands?

UCi WGR Welding Gauntlet Gloves use a thick flat leather design to cover the maximum amount of surface area possible. The fingertips are thick and thanks to an extended cuff, the wrist and lower forearm area are protected from splashing. The seams are welted and self-hemmed to prevent harmful substances and liquids seeping in through the stitching.

Extended Cuff Benefits

It is vital that your entire wrist is protected when working around flame, fire and heated material. An extended cuff is beneficial for a number of reasons. Firstly it prevents harmful ashes, dirt, splashing and debris from entering the glove at the wrist, ensuring that your hands stay protected.

Secondly, it cradles the natural curve of the wrist, preventing and delaying the onset of ailments like hand fatigue and strain.
