Scaffolding Gloves & Important Considerations
In the scaffolding world, gloves are a crucial part of your safety equipment. Anyone who works in the scaffolding business will tell you that they need to find a glove that is comfortable, and gets the job done.
Considerations when Buying Scaffolding Gloves
Before deciding what type of glove you need, there are a couple things you need to take into consideration.
Local climate
The first thing is the local climate. Due to the fact that scaffolding work is performed both indoors and outdoors, you need to find a glove that suits your local climate. If you work outside, and your region experiences a lot of rain, you need to ensure that it is waterproof. If you work in a cold climate, you need to find a glove that provides protection against the cold.
Can you work with them on
Along with keeping your hands warm and dry, you need to make sure you can actually work with the gloves on. Unfortunately, it is far too common for workers to have a pair of gloves, but they take them off because they lack the dexterity required to complete the task at hand. So it is crucial that you or your employees communicate if you are unable to perform the work with the gloves on.
Comfort
Comfort is another huge factor. Along with the dexterity that was mentioned above, you and your employees need to be comfortable wearing the glove. You will likely be wearing it all day, and thus having a glove that is comfortable will make the work that much more enjoyable.
Puncture & abrasive-resistant
The glove must be puncture-resistant and abrasive-resistant. When working in the scaffolding business, you may have to handle many rough pieces of steel, and so they need to resist the abrasion your hand faces when handling the different pieces.
Budget
Lastly, you need to find a glove that fits your budget, but that you expect to lose. One of the many problems with gloves is that they are more likely to get lost than other tools. They can often slip out of a pocket, and all it takes is one hand being lost to require buying a new pair. So it is important to find a pair that fits your budget, but that you expect will eventually get lost or need to be replaced because of wear and tear.
