  • ANSI/ISEA Abrasion Level 4 resists heavy wear

  • Seamless cotton knit liner keeps hands cool
  • General-purpose grip coating handles wet or dry parts

Showa Best 305M-08 Latex Coated Gloves

These gloves provide general-purpose hand protection with a seamless cotton knit construction. The natural rubber latex coating covers three-quarters of the hand for grip and abrasion resistance. They are sold as a single pair in a blue and gray colourway.

EN 388 2142X Abrasion Level 4 Rating

The EN 388 2142X rating confirms Level 4 abrasion resistance, the highest level on that scale. This specification indicates the glove withstands significant wear during rough material handling. ANSI/ISEA Abrasion Level 4 provides a matching benchmark for durability.

Suited for General Handling and Maintenance

Workers needing high abrasion resistance for dry or light oily tasks will find these suitable. The uninsulated, non-heat-resistant design makes them unsuitable for thermal hazards or extreme cold. Buyers requiring full liquid immersion protection or chemical permeation resistance should look at alternative styles.

Questions about this item

What does the EN 388 2142X rating tell me about real-world wear resistance?

The 2142X code rates abrasion at level 2, cut resistance at level 1, tear strength at level 4 and puncture resistance at level 2 on the EN 388 scale; the X means the ISO cut test was not performed.

How does the ANSI/ISEA abrasion level 4 affect glove life on rough surfaces?

Level 4 is the highest ANSI/ISEA abrasion rating, meaning the latex coating withstands more cycles on coarse materials before wearing through compared with lower-rated gloves.

Will the 3/4-dip knit wrist fit over a jacket cuff without slipping?

The seamless cotton knit wrist stretches to slide over a cuff, while the 3/4 latex dip stops short of the wrist opening so the fabric grips the sleeve and keeps the glove in place.
