Showa 879R-08 Chemical Resistance Glove Medium 25 Mil

Product Description

The SHOWA 879R-08 is an unlined butyl rubber chemical resistance glove engineered for trade and industrial professionals who work with highly corrosive acids, ketones, alcohols, and chemical nerve agents. At 25 mil thickness, the glove delivers superior permeation resistance to gases and water vapors, making it well suited for demanding chemical handling environments. The rolled cuff style provides a secure fit and helps prevent liquid ingress at the wrist. A rough surface exterior enhances tactile grip when handling wet or greasy components, reducing drop risk during critical tasks.

This glove is intended for use in environments where exposure to corrosive chemicals, industrial solvents, or hazardous vapors is a concern. Typical applications include chemical plant maintenance, laboratory work, industrial cleaning operations, and any service task involving contact with acids or ketone-based compounds. The medium size fits a wide range of hand profiles and is sold as a pair. Professionals in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and pool chemical service who routinely handle aggressive substances will find the 879R-08 appropriate for their chemical handling protocols.

Installation Notes

Inspect gloves before each use for cuts, pinholes, or degradation that could compromise chemical barrier integrity. Confirm chemical compatibility with the specific substances being handled before use, as no single glove material protects against all chemicals. After use, rinse the exterior thoroughly before removal to avoid contact transfer, and store away from direct sunlight and ozone sources to extend service life.
