What are ESD Gloves?

ESD gloves are specialized gloves that protect workers from static electrical discharges. They are made with a special type of material that prevents the build-up of static electricity, which can cause damage to sensitive equipment.

The material of the gloves is typically a blend of synthetic fibers such as nylon, polyester, rayon, and spandex. It is designed to be conductive, meaning it can dissipate any static electricity that builds up on the glove’s surface. 

A special coating may be added to add further static protection. This coating is usually made of a special compound such as carbon or silver. It not only helps to dissipate static electricity, but it also helps to protect the hands from abrasion, scratches, and other hazards.
