PALM COATED WORK GLOVES – Polyurethane Coating If you’re looking for a glove coating that’s extremely flexible, relatively inexpensive, and has a low particulate shed, polyurethane Palm-coated work gloves (PU) gloves are a good choice. While not the most durable coating, polyurethane will provide a phenomenal grip without ever feeling sticky. Unlike nitrile glove coatings, synthetic polyurethane offers a high level of breathability along with dexterity. This sort of coating will enhance puncture resistance while maintaining the ever-important tactile sensitivity. A polyurethane coating will help you to maintain the necessary dexterity you need when performing fine motor tasks and this type of coating offers a more “bare hand” grip because the coating has a tacky feeling which would be appropriate which works excellent for dry conditions but not well in wet or oily conditions.
