The Portwest A353 is a coated work glove for handling tasks where a secure grip and good finger feel both matter. Its sandy nitrile coating grips well in wet and dry conditions, and a dotted nitrile palm adds further hold on the surfaces you handle most.
The coating extends over three-quarters of the hand, giving added protection against water, oil and grease. Beneath it, a breathable seamless liner suits precision handling in dry environments.
