Product Information

Full details

The Makita Palm Performance Gloves are designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts seeking durable, comfortable hand protection for a variety of tasks including general purpose work, construction, woodworking, and carpentry. Their key benefit is the combination of 100% genuine leather with Durahide Leather technology, offering water resistance, breathability, and a no-break-in feel. A potential caveat is that while highly durable, they may offer less dexterity than thinner, unpadded gloves for very fine tasks.

FAQs

Do these gloves require a break-in period?

No, the Durahide Leather Technology is designed to make the gloves breathable and ready to wear without any break-in time.

Are these gloves waterproof?

The Durahide Leather Technology provides water resistance, but they are not fully waterproof. They are designed to protect against splashes and light moisture.

What kind of tasks are these gloves best suited for?

They are ideal for general purpose work, construction, woodworking, carpentry, DIY projects, and material handling where durability and protection are important.

How do I clean the gloves?

Clean gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or soaking the gloves.

What do the EN388 and ANSI ratings mean?

These are industry standards for protective gloves. The EN388 rating of 3112X indicates protection levels against abrasion, blade cut, tear, and puncture. The ANSI abrasion level 4 signifies a high level of resistance to abrasion.

Can I use these gloves for heavy-duty demolition work?

While durable, they are primarily designed for protection and grip during construction, woodworking, and general tasks. For extreme impact or heavy demolition, specialized impact gloves might be more appropriate.

How should I store the gloves to maximize their lifespan?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are dry before storing to prevent leather damage.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel too tight or too loose.

Adjust the hook and loop closure for a custom fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size based on your hand measurements.

Reduced grip after getting wet.

Allow gloves to dry completely. Leather grip can be reduced when damp but should return to normal once fully dry.

Leather appears stiff after drying.

This can happen if the gloves were exposed to excessive heat or prolonged moisture. Ensure proper air-drying. For minor stiffness, flexing the gloves by hand can help.

  • No break-in period required, ready for immediate use.
  • Padded knuckles provide extra protection.

Cons

  • May offer less dexterity for extremely fine detail work compared to thinner gloves.
  • Leather can stiffen if repeatedly soaked and not dried properly.
  • Not designed for protection against chemical hazards.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These gloves require no setup. Simply put them on and adjust the hook and loop closure for a snug, comfortable fit.

Compatibility: Compatible with a wide range of tasks requiring hand protection, including general construction, woodworking, carpentry, DIY projects, and material handling. They are designed to work with Makita tools and accessories by providing a secure grip and protecting hands.

Care: To maintain the integrity and lifespan of your gloves:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the gloves.
  2. Drying: If the gloves become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources (like radiators or hairdryers) as this can dry out and crack the leather.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
