Instructions for use

• It is recommended to check that the gloves are suitable for the intended use, because the conditions of use at workplace may differ from the "CE"-type tests.
• It is not recommended for persons sensitized to natural latex, dithiocarbamates and thiazoles to use these gloves.
• Unpack and put on the gloves according to the gowning procedure in the workplace.
• Inspect the gloves for any cracks and flaws before use.
• Put the gloves on dry, clean hands. Place the fingers into the glove. Gently pull the glove over the hand and make final adjustments only when both hands are gloved.
• Do not use the gloves in contact with a chemical for a duration in excess of the measured breakthrough time. Refer to the website www.mapa-pro.com or contact the Technical Customer Service - MAPA PROFESSIONNEL (stc.mapaspontex@mapaspontex.fr) in order to know this breakthrough time. Use 2 pairs alternatively when in long duration contact with a solvent.
• Turn the cuff end down in order to prevent a hazardous chemical from dripping onto the arm.
• Do not touch the external side of the gloves when taking them off.

Chemical chart

The chemical test data and overall chemical protection rating should not be used as the absolute basis for glove selection. Actual in-use conditions may vary glove performance from the controlled conditions of laboratory tests. Factors other than chemical contact time, such as concentration and temperature, glove thickness and glove reuse, may also affect performance. Other glove requirements, such as length, dexterity, cut, abrasion, puncture and snag resistance, or glove grip also need to be considered in making your final selection.
