Canadian Rigger Gloves

Canadian rigger gloves feature a leather palm and, very often, a fabric back.

Both split and grain leather are used for the Canadian rigger gloves which offers patch palm and vein protection.

Split leather is not as tough as hide leather but is cheaper. Split leather is basically when the hide has been split for another purpose and the layer left underneath has been used for the gloves. In addition, split leather is usually tanned or treated before use. Suede is an example of split leather.

Grain Leather is tough as hide but is expensive than split.

The Canadian rigger gloves have a stripy cotton backing for added comfort and ventilation, as well as allowing more bend in the hand.

Double Palm Rigger Gloves

Double Palm Rigger Gloves are similar to Canadian rigger gloves but have double thickness leather on the palm.

The double palm rigger gloves are made of both split and grain leather and feature additional reinforced protection to palm and forefinger areas. They also come in one size and are suitable for construction and agricultural industries, as well as landscaping and forestry.

Welding Gloves

Welding gloves are personal protective equipment (PPE) that protect the hands of welders from the hazards of welding. These gloves allow digit articulation while protecting the operator from electrical shock, extreme heat, and ultraviolet and infrared radiation, and also provide abrasion resistance and enhanced grip.

Welding gloves are typically part of a welding ensemble (helmet, coveralls, etc.), but have particular care taken for their design considering the proximity of the gloves to the welding process. Gloves are worn over the hand with individual sheaths for each finger and thumb. It should be presently noted that welding mittens do exist, but are generally less useful. No matter, the functional principle remains the same: these garbs are composed of materials that are durable, electrically nonconductive, and dissipate heat well. Additional materials will be incorporated to enhance the glove's protection. Many gloves feature oversized cuffs to provide vambrace-like protection against splatter on the forearm.

Types

The foremost material of welding gloves is split or top leather, derived from the hide of various livestock. Hides of cow, buff and goat, offer different degrees of comfort, usually instark contrast with glove durability. The application largely determines the preferred material, and welding gloves are commonly categorized into three levels of comfort/durability. While labelled by individual welding styles, these gloves are applicable across a wide range of welding procedures.

· TIG welding gloves are typically made of goat, cow,hides They are designed to provide finger sensitivity with adequate protection.

· MIG welding gloves are meant to provide maximum protection with some dexterity. Materials are usually of , cow ,buff hides.

· Stick welding gloves are typically the most robust type of welding glove and are therefore composed of cow or buff hides.

DRIVING GLOVES

A driving glove is a hand covering, typically constructed of very thin, soft leather, used to give a driver increased control of the vehicle through enhanced grip of the steering wheel and gear stick. The grain present on the leather and the pores present in the leather give the gloves the unique ability to assist the wearer as he or she grips the steering wheel and gear stick. As soft as a leather glove may be, its pores and grain provide a level of friction when "gripped" against an item or surface]

The gloves usually have separate sheaths or openings for each finger and the thumb. They are designed for holding a steering wheel. These gloves also provide a good feel and add comfort to the hands. They fit tight and do not interfere with the hands' movements. The increased grip allows for more control, and increased safety at high speeds.
