Your hands do the heavy lifting on every job. The right gloves help protect them from cuts, abrasions, punctures, chemicals, cold, and everyday wear—while also improving grip and reducing fatigue. At Allied Bolt & Screw, we stock dependable glove options to match real jobsite conditions, including disposable nitrile gloves and durable work gloves for handling, assembly, and general use.
Why the Right Gloves Matter
Gloves are one of the simplest ways to reduce injuries and keep work moving. The best pair for the job should balance protection with dexterity—so you can handle tools, fasteners, and materials confidently without losing feel or control.
- Better grip in dry, wet, or oily environments
- Protection from scrapes, cuts, and punctures
- Reduced hand fatigue during repetitive work
- Cleaner, safer handling for shop, maintenance, and industrial tasks
Popular Glove Types for Real-World Jobs
Nitrile Gloves
Nitrile is a go-to option when you need a disposable barrier plus solid dexterity. These gloves are especially useful for automotive work, maintenance, cleaning, and any task where you want a reliable barrier against oils and grime. Many pros also prefer nitrile because it’s typically latex-free.
General-Purpose Work Gloves
For day-to-day handling, general-purpose work gloves are built for durability and comfort. They’re ideal for loading and unloading, material handling, warehouse work, jobsite tasks, and shop use—anywhere you want abrasion resistance and a confident grip.
How to Choose the Best Gloves for Your Job
- Start with the hazard: cut risk, chemicals, impact, heat, cold, or abrasion.
- Match the material: nitrile for disposable barrier and dexterity; heavier work gloves for handling and abrasion resistance.
- Prioritize fit: too loose reduces grip; too tight reduces comfort and control.
- Consider the environment: wet/oily conditions may call for enhanced grip surfaces.
Glove Tips: Use, Inspect, Replace
Before each use, take a quick look for tears, thin spots, or worn areas—especially in the palm and fingertips. Replace gloves when they lose grip, show damage, or no longer provide the protection you need. Disposable gloves should be changed frequently to stay effective.
