About PU Coated PU coated gloves feature a thin polyurethane coating applied to the palm, fingers, or fingertips, providing excellent grip, dexterity, and protection for precision work. This specialist coating creates a flexible barrier that enhances tactile sensitivity whilst offering resistance to abrasion, oils, and light chemicals. MyToolShed.co.uk stocks a comprehensive range of PU coated gloves from trusted brands including Portwest, Scan, Draper, and Sealey, suitable for both professional tradespeople and DIY enthusiasts. These gloves are designed for tasks requiring fine motor control and precise handling, where traditional heavy-duty work gloves would be too bulky. The breathable nature of polyurethane coatings ensures comfort during extended wear, whilst maintaining the protection needed for general handling, assembly work, and light engineering applications. Available in various cut resistance levels and coating coverage options, PU coated gloves offer versatile hand protection across numerous industries. Applications PU coated gloves are ideal for a wide range of trades and applications: Assembly and manufacturing: Component handling, electronics assembly, and quality control inspection Warehousing and logistics: Parcel sorting, picking operations, and general warehouse duties Engineering: Light mechanical work, precision engineering, and machinery operation Automotive: Vehicle maintenance, parts handling, and bodywork preparation Construction: Carpentry, joinery, plumbing, and electrical work requiring finger dexterity Gardening and landscaping: Plant handling, garden maintenance, and light outdoor work DIY projects: Home improvements, furniture assembly, and general household repairs Electronics: ESD-safe versions available for handling sensitive electronic components Choosing The Right PU Coated When selecting PU coated gloves from MyToolShed.co.uk, consider these important factors: Coating coverage: Palm-coated offer maximum breathability, whilst fingertip-coated preserve palm sensitivity, and full-coated provide maximum protection Cut resistance level: Choose from Cut Level 1-5 (EN388 standard) depending on your application – higher levels for sharper materials Size and fit: Properly fitted gloves ensure maximum dexterity and comfort; check manufacturer sizing charts carefully Liner material: Nylon liners offer flexibility, whilst specialist liners provide additional features like cut resistance or touchscreen compatibility ESD protection: Essential for electronics work where static discharge could damage sensitive components Grip requirements: Standard PU provides excellent dry grip; consider textured coatings for enhanced grip in slightly wet conditions Frequently Asked Questions Can PU coated gloves be washed and reused? Yes, most PU coated gloves can be washed in warm water with mild detergent and air-dried. However, inspect them regularly for wear and replace when the coating shows signs of damage or reduced grip performance. What's the difference between PU and nitrile coated gloves? PU coatings offer superior dexterity, breathability, and tactile sensitivity, making them ideal for precision work. Nitrile coatings provide better chemical and puncture resistance, suited for heavier-duty applications involving oils and chemicals. Are touchscreen-compatible PU coated gloves available? Yes, MyToolShed stocks touchscreen-compatible options like the Draper Hi Sensitivity Screen Touch Gloves, allowing you to operate smartphones and tablets without removing your gloves during work.
