Showa 553617 Chemical-resistant Neoprene Gloves Large

Product Description

The SHOWA 553617 is a supported neoprene chemical-resistant glove designed for trade professionals handling corrosive, solvent-heavy, or oil-laden materials. Built on a polyester liner, the glove offers greater durability than unsupported alternatives, making it well-suited for tasks where the glove is fully submerged in liquid. The grain-finish neoprene coating covers the full glove, providing a secure grip and resistance to a broad range of chemicals including acids, alcohols, ketones, caustics, solvents, greases, and petrochemicals. At 60.63 mil overall thickness and 14 inches in length with a gauntlet-style cuff, the glove provides extended wrist and forearm protection during chemical handling operations.

This glove is intended for general-purpose chemical handling in industrial, maintenance, and facilities environments. It is sized Large (numeric size 10) and sold as a single pair. The gauntlet cuff style suits applications where splash protection above the wrist is required. The polyester-lined interior adds comfort and structural support during extended wear. The glove carries EN ISO 374 Type A classification and has been tested against methanol, n-heptane, sodium hydroxide 40%, sulphuric acid 96%, nitric acid 65%, and formaldehyde 37%, making it appropriate for lab, chemical processing, and industrial maintenance tasks.

Installation Notes

Inspect gloves for cuts, pinholes, or coating separation before each use.
