magid class 0 rubber insulating electrical gloves β what the listing actually specifies
What to check before you buy
A cut level is not a puncture, chemical or heat rating. ANSI/ISEA 105 scores those hazards on separate scales, and a glove chosen for blade contact can be the wrong glove for a needle, a solvent or a hot part. Anyone with a latex allergy must also check the liner and the coating material, not just the outer surface.
- Class determines the voltage
- ASTM D120 classes run 00, 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4, each with a defined maximum use voltage. The class must be selected for the actual exposure.
- Retest interval
- Insulating gloves must be electrically retested at defined intervals - and gloves that have been issued for service have a shorter permitted interval than gloves in storage.
- Leather protectors
- Rubber insulating gloves are worn with leather protectors over them. The rubber provides the insulation; the leather protects the rubber from the mechanical damage that would destroy it.
- Air test before each use
- An air (inflation) test before each use catches pinholes and cuts that are invisible. It takes seconds and is the last line of defense.
