SHOWA 730 Nitrile Chemical Resistant Safety Glove User Manual

1. Inngangur

The SHOWA 730 chemical-resistant gloves are engineered for superior grip and comfort, providing reliable protection in various demanding environments. These gloves are crafted from 100% nitrile, offering robust defense against a wide array of oils, solvents, and chemicals. The design incorporates a bisque surface finish, which significantly enhances wet grip, contributing to improved ease of use and safety.

A key feature of the SHOWA 730 is its flocked liner, which is a thin layer of cotton fibers inside the glove. This liner is specifically designed to facilitate easy donning and doffing, ensuring user convenience. These gloves are latex-free and exhibit excellent abrasion resistance, making them a durable and effective alternative to natural rubber latex gloves, particularly in dry work environments.

Remove the gloves from their individual packaging. Before first use, visually inspect each glove for any signs of damage, such as tears, punctures, or manufacturing defects. Ensure the gloves are clean and dry. The flock-lined interior should feel soft and smooth, aiding in comfortable wear.

1. Að setja á sig hanska: Ensure your hands are clean and dry. Slide your hand into the glove, guiding your fingers into each digit. Pull the cuff up your forearm until the glove is fully seated and comfortable. The flock lining assists in smooth entry.
2. Ensuring Proper Fit: The gloves should fit snugly but not restrict movement or circulation. Proper fit is crucial for dexterity and comfort during use.
3. Working with Chemicals: When handling chemicals, always verify that the specific chemicals you are working with are compatible with nitrile gloves. The 15-mil thickness provides a good barrier for many common industrial and household chemicals.
4. Doffing the Gloves: To remove, grasp the cuff of one glove near the wrist and peel it off, turning it inside out. Hold the removed glove in the gloved hand. With the now ungloved hand, slide your fingers under the cuff of the remaining glove and peel it off, enclosing the first glove inside. Dispose of gloves properly if contaminated.

5. Viðhald og umönnun

To maximize the lifespan and effectiveness of your SHOWA 730 gloves, proper maintenance is essential. After each use, especially when exposed to chemicals or dirt, clean the gloves thoroughly. Wash them with warm water and a mild soap. It is recommended to turn the gloves inside out to clean the interior as well, particularly the flock lining, to prevent accumulation of sweat or residues.

Rinse the gloves thoroughly to remove all soap residue. Allow them to air dry completely, preferably by hanging them in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Ensure they are fully dry before storing to prevent mildew or degradation of the material. Store gloves in a cool, dry place, away from sharp objects or abrasive surfaces that could cause damage.

6. Bilanagreining

The SHOWA 730 gloves are designed for durability and performance. Should you encounter any issues such as unexpected tearing, loss of chemical resistance, or discomfort during use, please consider the following:

• Tearing/Punctures: Ensure the gloves are not exposed to excessively sharp objects or extreme mechanical stress beyond their intended use. Replace immediately if compromised.
• Loss of Protection: Verify that the chemicals being handled are within the resistance capabilities of nitrile. Refer to chemical compatibility charts if available for specific substances.
• Discomfort/Irritation: Ensure the correct size is being used. While latex-free, some individuals may have sensitivities to other materials. Ensure gloves are clean and dry before each use.

If problems persist or you have concerns about the glove's performance, please contact SHOWA customer support for assistance.
