SHOWA ATLAS 300 Latex Coated Work Gloves, Dozen
SHOWA ATLAS 300 work gloves combine a rough natural rubber latex palm with a seamless cotton/polyester liner. The open back allows ventilation, while the elasticated wrist helps keep the glove in place. Designed for general-purpose handling, these gloves suit tasks where textured grip and flexibility matter. ASA SKU S13300 is sold by the dozen.

Mechanical Performance and Selection
SHOWA lists EN 388:2016+A1:2018 performance code 2142X. The four numbers represent abrasion Level 2, blade cut Level 1, tear Level 4 and puncture Level 2. The final X means no reported ISO 13997 cut result. These results do not establish an ANSI A-series cut rating.
This is a general-purpose handling glove, not a high-cut glove for glass or sharp sheet metal. Mechanical puncture testing does not establish hypodermic needle protection. Select protection for the actual material, edge condition, handling force and exposure, rather than relying on the coating alone.
OSHA Hand Protection Requirements
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.138 requires employers to select appropriate hand protection for identified hazards. Selection considers glove performance, tasks, workplace conditions and duration of use. OSHA does not approve this model; the employer must determine whether its performance suits the work.
Fit, Grip and Daily Use
Choose a size that allows finger movement without loose material interfering with handling. Test grip with representative tools and materials under actual working conditions. Surface contamination can change grip, so no coating should be treated as slip-proof.
The uncoated back means this glove is not a complete liquid barrier. Do not infer chemical, electrical or thermal protection from the latex palm. Assess entanglement hazards around moving machinery before requiring gloves for a task.
Contains natural rubber latex, which may cause allergic reactions. Select an appropriate alternative for workers with latex sensitivity. Inspect before use and replace gloves with torn knit, worn coating or contamination that compromises protection.
Compare general purpose work gloves when selecting different coatings or handling features for your crew.
Plan quantities by size before ordering: a dozen pack supplies twelve workers with one pair each. Keep replacement pairs available where repeated handling wears the palm coating during use.
