Frequently asked questions
Can't find the answer you're looking for? Have a look at our FAQ page.What is a dip line and which do I need?
MaxiFlex® is available in 4 different dip lines, meaning there are 4 options as to how much coating is applied to the glove. For many tasks, a palm coating may be sufficient, leaving the back of the hand with maximum flexibility. For other tasks, when cushioning or higher oil repellance on the backside of the glove is needed, 3/4 or full coating may be more appropriate. We offer different dip lines so that you only get the amount of coating you need.
Why do the number of abrasion cycles a glove can handle matter?
Abrasion resistance is measured from level 1-4 (EN388), but within those levels, performance can vary. For example, level 4 abrasion resistance requires a glove to withstand a minimum of 8000 cycles, but MaxiFlex achieves up to twice as many abrasion cycles. MaxiFlex® therefore far exceeds the minimum performance requirements of level 4 abrasion resistance and would be considered more durable than a product only just achieveing level 4.
What sizes are available?
MaxiFlex® is available in 8 sizes, from 5 - 12 (XXS-XXXL).
What is micro-foam nitrile?
Micro-foam nitrile is a special, patented formulation of nitrile coating which allows our gloves (where this coating is used) to be fully breathable. The coating can be applied precisely and is thin, which means users can enjoy maximum dexterity and flexibility.
I find MaxiFlex® gloves to be the perfect gloves. They're very comfortable and fit like a second skin.
I just used my first pair of MaxiFlex® Ultimate™ gloves and they're wonderful. So good that I've given some to my family and friends to experience.
