Insulated Goatskin Mechanics Work Gloves
Mechanics gloves combine a grain goatskin leather palm with 70g of 3M Thinsulate insulation for cold-weather handling. The black spandex back allows movement, while an adjustable wrist closure helps keep the glove seated. ASA SKU SHR2800INT identifies this insulated leather-palm model for maintenance, construction and warehouse tasks.
Key Features

Common Uses and Applications
- Cold-weather maintenance
- Construction and carpentry
- Warehouse material handling
- Mechanics and cold storage tasks
Construction for Cold-Weather Handling
The leather palm and stretch back balance coverage with hand movement when handling tools, cartons or parts. Reinforcement covers the backs of the fingertips and index finger, while the wing thumb supports a natural grip. The nylon storm flap sits at the wrist closure.
Select a size that allows comfortable finger movement without loose material at the fingertips. Adjust the closure and check grip with the actual tools used on the job. Compare cold-weather work gloves when a different insulation level, cuff style or documented protection rating is required.
Thermal and Mechanical Protection Limits
The manufacturer specifies 70g insulation but does not publish a minimum safe working temperature in the linked datasheet. Exposure duration, moisture, wind, activity and contact with cold surfaces affect selection. The insulation amount does not guarantee comfort at a particular temperature.
No EN 511, EN 388, ANSI cut or ANSI/ISEA 138 impact rating is stated in that document. Neoprene knuckle padding should not be treated as certified impact protection. A nylon storm flap does not establish waterproof construction. Select separately documented protection for chemical, electrical, sharp-edge or impact hazards.
OSHA Hand Protection Requirements
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.138 requires employers to select appropriate hand protection for identified hazards, including harmful temperature extremes. Selection must consider glove performance, tasks, conditions and duration of use. This employer obligation is not OSHA certification of the glove.
Inspection and Product Documentation
Keep hands clear of moving components and follow workplace rules wherever gloves could become caught in machinery during maintenance work. Inspect the leather, stitching, insulation and wrist closure before use. Replace damaged gloves and follow the supplied care instructions. Keep gloves dry between uses. Confirm fit and control before assigning them to repetitive handling tasks.
