Product Information

Full details

The Mapa Krytech 840 gloves are designed for industrial professionals working with heavy, sharp, or abrasive materials in wet environments. They offer an essential balance of cut protection, puncture resistance, and thermal insulation, making them ideal for tasks in the construction, plastics, and waste management sectors. While they provide excellent durability and grip, the thick natural rubber coating may limit tactile sensitivity for tasks requiring extreme dexterity with small components.

FAQs

What does the 'Level D' cut protection rating mean?

It signifies a high level of cut resistance according to the EN 388 standard, suitable for handling very sharp objects or metal sheets.

Are these gloves waterproof?

Yes, the natural rubber coating provides a waterproof barrier, making them ideal for handling items in wet or damp conditions.

Can I use these to handle extremely hot objects?

They provide thermal insulation (EN 407: X2XXXX), meaning they offer protection against heat, but they are not intended for continuous contact with extreme temperatures.

Are these gloves latex-free?

No, they feature a natural rubber coating, which typically contains latex. Those with severe allergies should avoid these or use them with a barrier liner.

How do I choose the right size?

Measure the circumference of your hand at the widest point (excluding the thumb) and compare it to standard industrial glove sizing charts.

Troubleshooting

Reduced grip on oily surfaces

Clean the embossed surface with a degreaser or mild soap to remove oil buildup and restore friction.

Visible signs of wear on fingertips

Inspect for exposed fabric; if the base liner is visible, the cut-resistant barrier may be compromised and the gloves should be replaced.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent grip in wet or slippery environments
  • High-level cut protection (Level D)
  • Durable resistance to punctures and abrasions
  • Provides thermal insulation for safer handling
  • Reliable protection for heavy-duty industrial tasks

Cons

  • Lower tactile sensitivity compared to thinner gloves
  • Bulkier design may impede fine motor tasks
  • Natural rubber may cause reactions in individuals with latex allergies

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these gloves utilize a natural rubber coating, they are best suited for environments where liquid ingress is a concern. To maintain the life of your gloves:

  • Cleaning: Wipe down the rubber exterior with water and mild detergent after exposure to heavy contaminants. Avoid using harsh solvents that may degrade the rubber.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme heat, as UV radiation can accelerate the degradation of natural rubber.
  • Inspection: Before every use, inspect the gloves for tears, holes, or thinning of the coating. If the integrity of the glove is compromised, discontinue use immediately to ensure continued protection.
  • Allergy Awareness: Note that natural rubber can trigger latex-related allergic reactions; verify that all users are aware of material specifications before deployment.
