Black Lightning Nitrile Gloves With 5.5 pH Technology
Atlantic Safety Products makes the Black Lightning line for work that is hard on hands and hard on gloves. The headline feature is 5.5 pH technology, which matches the natural pH of healthy skin. Atlantic Safety says the formulation also cuts down on excess sweating inside the glove. Each glove is quadruple washed, so no excess chemicals linger on the surface. They are powder free and latex free. The nitrile runs about 4.7 mil at the cuff, 5.2 mil at the palm and 6.1 mil at the fingertips. Extra thickness at the fingertips puts material where trimming and handling wear gloves out first. The maker rates them as highly resistant to puncture, abrasion, solvents and grease. A textured surface helps hold scissors, tools and wet containers. The gloves are ambidextrous and measure about 9.5 inches long. This box holds 100 Large gloves, or 50 pairs.
Where Black Nitrile Gloves Fit in a Grow
Trim sessions are the obvious job, since sticky resin wipes off nitrile more easily than skin. The black color hides stains, so a glove that looks worn usually is worn. Nutrient mixing is another daily use, keeping concentrates off the skin. They hold up to cleaning chemicals and degreasers during equipment maintenance. Swap gloves between rooms to avoid carrying pests or spores from one crop to the next. Pull a fresh pair before handling clones, since cuttings are the most exposed plants in the building. Grow staff who wear gloves all shift will notice the pH-matched formula most. Being ambidextrous, either glove fits either hand, which speeds up gearing up. Remove gloves by peeling them inside out to keep residue off your hands. Dispose of used gloves rather than reusing them. Store boxes in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
