Was dubious about buying, a bag, of the beeswift mp1 gloves, as I was actually looking for an alternate brand, I've had gloves before that were all bundled together, where the rubber was too hard and the material like an old rope, the company sent them out really fast delivery, individually wrapped, premium gloves, really happy, top drawer, as these will be stored in the garage, no damp or spider issues, big thanks to George @ gloves & stuff.

Heavy-Duty Chemical Protection That Reaches Past Your Wrist
When you're working with hazardous chemicals, a standard glove just doesn't cut it. The Portwest A802 Chem 440 is a heavyweight natural rubber latex gauntlet built for serious chemical work — the kind that goes on in chemical plants, cement yards, food processing, and tile workshops where a splash to the forearm is just as dangerous as one to the hand.
Key Features:
-
17-Inch Gauntlet Length: Extends roughly 44cm up the forearm — keeps chemical splashes away from your wrist and lower arm, not just your fingers.
-
EN ISO 374-1:2016 Type A Chemical Resistance: The highest classification available, with tested protection against chemicals AKLMNOPT. This isn't a light-duty splash guard — it's built for regular contact with hazardous substances.
-
1.1mm Natural Rubber Latex: Heavyweight construction that holds its shape and resists permeation. Thicker than most chemical gloves, which means more protection between you and what you're handling.
-
Contact Heat Resistance Over 200°F: Rated to EN 407:2020 for incidental thermal hazards — handy in environments where heat and chemicals show up together.
-
EN 388:2016 Rating 4121X: High abrasion resistance at Level 4 — these won't wear through quickly on rough surfaces or repeated handling.
-
Micro-Organism Protection: Certified to EN ISO 374-5:2016 — relevant for food processing, waste handling, and anywhere biological contamination is a concern.
-
Dexterity Level 5: Rated at the highest dexterity level per EN ISO 21420:2020 — surprisingly manageable for a heavyweight gauntlet.
-
AQL 1.5 Quality Standard: Stringent quality control on every pair. Fewer defects, more confidence when it counts.
Portwest's A802 Chem 440 ticks the boxes that matter most in hazardous chemical environments — Type A chemical resistance, extended forearm coverage, and the mechanical durability to handle rough day-to-day use. Available in Black, sizes L through XXL. Order yours at Glovesnstuff.
