Inspecting High Voltage Rubber Gloves & Sleeves

Saturday, August 30th, 2008

Cracking and Cutting

Shown above is the damage caused by prolonged folding or compressing.

Chemical Attack

This photo shows swelling caused by oils and other petroleum compounds.

Snags

Damage shown here is due to wood and metal splinters and other sharp
objects.

UV Checking

Storing in areas exposed to prolonged sunlight causes UV checking.

Avoid Folding Gloves

The strain on rubber at a folded point is equal to stretching the glove
to twice its length.

Avoid Storing Inside Out

Gloves should never be stored inside out. Storing gloves reversed strains
the rubber severely and causes ozone cutting.
