What does 18 gauge mean? What gauge are your gloves and does this matter to me?

Gauge refers to the knitting process and resultant characteristics of the glove liner. Typically the higher the gauge number, the more dense the fabric, but the fabric is also typically thinner. This means 18  gauge gloves would typically be thinner, with a denser liner than a 15 gauge glove. However, there are a number of other features and benefits apart from  gauge that are helpful in choosing a glove.

How should I choose the correct glove for my application?

Our 4 brands are designed to be in different environments making it easy to choose. MaxiFlex® for precision handling work in dry environments; MaxiDry® for precision handling work in oily and wet environments; MaxiCut® for work with a risk of cut; MaxiChem® for chemical exposure.

Is MaxiDry® liquidproof?

MaxiDry®'s coating is designed to resist and repell liquids and oils. It is not designed to be chemical resistant; for use with chemicals we recommend MaxiChem®.
