PU1100 ANTIESTATIC

Economical antistatic glove with fingertip coating

Nowadays, workplaces where electrostatic discharges (ESD) can occur around sensitive electronic equipment and parts are very common, such as clean rooms for electronics, nanotechnology and semiconductor manufacturing. Such electrostatic charge transfer not only affects the electrical properties of electronic parts, but can also cause equipment malfunctions and failures, interfering with their operation. 

Personnel in such work environments must use appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to minimise or even eliminate any charge transfer between personnel and electrostatic discharge-sensitive component equipment. As explained in this video, work gloves in such environments must be made to minimise or even eliminate static electricity.

Aware that this is a reality that is increasingly present in any work environment, Juba has launched a new reference of antistatic gloves. The PU1100 Antistatic glove is made from polyester and carbon fibre, with polyurethane coating on the fingertips.

Professionals who use this new glove in their daily work will be able to work in a tactile, light-weight, flexible and comfortable way. In fact, it has a 13 gauge, so it will fit the hand very well, in addition to being lint-free. And, of course, this model is designed to be able to use touch screens, very frequent nowadays in all work sectors. 

The features of this glove make it recommendable for all types of activities related to quality inspection, laboratories, precision handling in jobs with antistatic hazards or, among others, handling or assembly and assembly of parts in dry environments.

Regarding safety, PU1100 Antiestatic is a Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), which complies with all specifications determined in the EN 16350:2014 standard on gloves for protection against electrostatic properties. In addition, protective gloves with electrostatic dissipation, each individual measure must meet the requirement: Vertical resistance (Rv)<1.0x108 Ω. In particular, this reference offers a Rv of 0.596 Mohms.
