@ExaltedDuck8 жыл бұрын
+Angel Derbessy I work in a chemical and materials lab and I've gone through a lot of brands of nitrile rubber gloves to try to find the best. The black ones tend to be the best. I prefer microflex black knight but I've also use the cheap generic black nitrile gloves from uline and they seem better than most, too. I think since they're meant for mechanics and tattooists, they're a little tought, or maybe the rubber is reinforced with carbon black or something. Whatever the reason, they just seem to hold up better to mechanical stresses, even after exposure to harsh solvents. The downside is they hide the grime on your hands and you might spread it around by accident. The standard bluish nitrile gloves are also pretty good, as long as they're at least about 5 mils thick. Thinner than that won't stand up to mechanical stresses well. Avoid anything advertised as being more stretchy or easier to put on/take off. They'll be doped with other types of rubber compromising their protective capabilities, strength, and even negatively impacting tactile sensation through the glove. Those along with the thinner nitrile gloves are more appropriate for medical and biological work, where they act as a barrier to generally aqueous contaminants, and without a whole of mechanical stress.

An advantage I find with fabric nitrile gloves is that they are stiffer and give my hands support as well as protecting them. I'm a mail carrier and had some pain in the first two fingers of my right hand, from clutching the mail and twisting and bending my hands so much. Now I wear fabric nitrile-dipped gloves all day. They never tear and protect my hands from scrapes and paper cuts too. They get hot in the summertime but I think it's a fair tradeoff. Also, they fit very snugly so I can pick up anything that I could pick up without gloves, get keys out of my pocket without removing my gloves, etc. The dollar store nitrile gloves are okay: I'd have to say they are great for the price but I don't use them. The ones I use are $5/pair and they are perfect.

Keeping it straight, making patterns, or pulling or pushing and angle makes a huge difference and is very useful in different areas and times. Watching videos on those and understanding them will help you allot. And it is better to keep the amps pretty high, close to going trough. As there is nothing worse then a cold weld and also the arc is more rapid so it makes your weld smoother. Few great tips for you. Don't know, maybe soon we will start to see custom builds on the cars :D

I used to wear the artic iron class as they were water proof. Best gloves if you have to get wet. however, they used to run $40 a pair, so I used them sparingly. very often I had to use the PVC rubber coated kind. they were good when you needed to grip metals, such as pipes in the cold but didn't require alot of dexterity. then I had the rubber grip but regular nylon backside if I needed dexterity in wet/cold. I also had a good pair of leather/deer skin stuff for less complex but sharp or pointy things. worked good for when you were using a hammer or saw with rough wood. I climbed poles as a cable splicer, so there was a really good mix of heavy lifting, blunt force and dexterity required in all weather conditions. a good selection of gloves you could throw on the heater really made a big difference when it was -18°f plus wind chill.

+lilsammywasapunkrock Thanks for sharing! This is great info and wow, you work in tough conditions!! That was the biggest problem with the gloves because you want to use them but you dont want to wear them out because they are expensive!

+ChrisFix thanks Chris. the power guys are the really tough guys. and it is much more dangerous. an idea for a good tool to review, its a ratchet handle wrench. used to be branded stanley,mbut now it's called bostich. it runs $20-25 at Walmart but is perfect for tough to reach places. if you've ever had to do a starter on a ford 4.6 or 5.4 with 4wd, there isn't much room and it takes forever. with the ratchet handle, you can twist the handle instead of the wrench and it has a much finer ratchet. you'll get 4-6 clicks for every one with a standard wrench. well worth picking up for the junkyard run/grab bag.

As a mechanic I use nitrile 7mm raven gloves for working and I have some welding gloves like what you had but I destroy them quickly welding a lot. Mainly they get destroyed by damaging them, not due to heat or fire. A sharp piece or something like that and they get cut and then you have places pieces of nice hot crap can burn your skin. It makes it more exciting that way... lol

I prefer the cheap deer skin gloves from Home Depot. Very strong. I work at a Christmas tree farm schlepping trees around all day. Blue spruces have sharp tough needles and those gloves protect very well. But I also need dexterity for tying the twine. These are the only ones that don't get holes after 3 weekends. Highly recommend the deer skin gloves. I have to wear a women's large because my hands are the size of baby hands :(

Agree with Nitrile gloves (use them in aviation 24/7 more or less). Can't feeling anything is called "tactile feedback" and is quite bad, you can't feel that grinding in a part or a thread, etc. I also always use barrier cream first, even if I don't wear gloves - when it comes to washing up at the end of the day, all of the oil, grease and crap comes straight off with minimal scrubbing. I enjoyed learning about the various applications of the gloves though, cheers from Australia.

I have a few gloves to do the job, but the problem with me is when my truck decides to break down on me for some odd reason. I had water hoses go out on me, oil lines breaking and fuel lines breaking on me or starting to leak really bad. Today, I was stuck in a parking lot trying to figure out why my truck was leaking fuel. I didn't have gloves, so I had to do this with bare hands. I was under my truck for 20 minutes figuring out how to get my truck to stop leaking over a gallon of fuel a minute to get back on the road. Overall, I got my truck to stop leaking fuel. It was an easy fix, but solved it on my own. Turned out when I replaced the fuel lines in my truck to my own custom made lines, the connector to the original OEM made lines had a broken rubber seal, so I took the other seal from the vapor line off and put it on the line where the fuel gets to the engine. Now I have to get a new rubber seal for the vapor line. But all in all, I got it up and running in a matter of no time. Gloves aren't needed on vehicles if you just wanna do it yolo style or if you wanna be clean. My job is dirty, so I don't care. I always take a shower when I get home.
