Heavy-Duty Impact-Resistant Work Gloves with Thermoplastic Rubber Knuckle Shielding and Touchscreen Capability
The Gearwrench 86988 X-Large Heavy-Duty Impact-Resistant Gloves deliver an industrial personal protective solution engineered to defend trade professionals against structural hand injuries and severe impact forces. Featuring advanced Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR) armor plates molded directly across the knuckles and fingers, these premium safety gloves shield hands from crushing blows and scrapes inside compact mechanical environments. The high-performance palms are engineered with internal EVA foam padding to systematically absorb continuous vibrations from pneumatic impact wrenches and power tools, while integrated touch-screen fingertips allow technicians to seamlessly document diagnostics on mobile devices without removing their thermal hand protection.
Best Used For:
- Automotive Shop Maintenance: Protecting knuckles from abrasive impacts and sharp structural corners while breaking loose stubborn suspension components.
- High-Vibration Tool Operation: Absorbing continuous cyclical shocks and friction loads generated by heavy pneumatic impact guns and grinders.
- Digital Vehicle Diagnostics: Navigating industrial shop tablets, diagnostic screens, and mobile cell phone displays fluidly without exposing bare skin.
Key Performance & Safety Features
- Thermoplastic Rubber Armor: Segmented TPR shields dissipate high-energy impact vectors away from critical knuckle bones and finger joints.
- EVA Foam Displacement Padding: Deep palm absorption layers reduce secondary nerve fatigue caused by persistent industrial machinery vibrations.
- TrekDry Moisture Regulation: Highly breathable fabric lining accelerates airflow internally to keep workers' hands cool and dry.
- Capacitive Touch Fingertips: Conductive surface thread treatments support multi-touch gestures on all smart technology glass interfaces.
- Reinforced Thumb Saddle: Heavy-gauge composite layering protects high-friction wear points against premature splitting during tool grip cycles.

Pro-Tip: To extend the operational life of your touch-screen conductive pads, wash these gloves in cold water on a gentle cycle and let them air dry naturally. Avoid high-heat commercial dryers, as intense thermal exposure can degrade the flexible TPR knuckle shields and contract the fiber weaves.
