Gauge your safety and performance! Understanding glove gauges is important for protecting your hands in the workplace. Gloves with specific gauges offer advantages and protection for certain tasks. For example, thinner gloves are perfect for electricians handling thin cables. Deciding on the appropriate safety glove can be daunting due to the many available alternatives. The work environment and potential dangers should guide your choice. But first, what is gauge?
