Work Gloves Take Hold



3M offers work gloves made with 3M Gripping Material are designed to provide greater productivity and performance with less effort. According to the company, Work Gloves made with 3M Gripping Material can provide up to a 270% improvement in friction when used as a two-part system and are ideal for anyone who needs a better grip - especially in wet or oily conditions.

"Comprised of thousands of micro fingers, the 3M Gripping Material enhances traction and hold on many tools and pieces of equipment," said a company spokesperson. "This means reduced slippage, fewer dropped tools and improved productivity with less fatigue. The Work Gloves can be used alone or as a two-part system, which mates the gloves with tools or piece of equipment wrapped with 3M Gripping Material tape. The two-part system significantly improves friction over traditional leather gloves and wraps. In addition, the Work Gloves are resistant to abrasion and punctures so they stand up to the demands of the factory and in the field."
