SHOWA 95NFW Insulated Cold Weather Work Gloves
SHOWA 95NFW insulated gloves combine a full natural rubber coating with foam insulation and a cotton jersey liner for cold working conditions. The rough, self-wrinkle finish helps with wet and dry grip, while the extended gauntlet adds coverage beyond the wrist. Choose this model when warmth, material handling, and an extended cuff matter, then confirm that its protection matches the task.
Key Features
- Insulated construction: Foam sits between cotton jersey and cotton interlock layers to help retain warmth.
- Full coating: Natural rubber covers the glove rather than only the palm.
- Textured grip: The wrinkle finish supports handling in wet and dry conditions during repeated handling tasks.
- Extended gauntlet: Provides additional wrist and lower forearm coverage.
- Mechanical resistance: SHOWA describes cut, puncture, and abrasion resistance without publishing an ANSI cut level in the referenced datasheet.
Applications
SHOWA lists construction, glass, landscaping, and municipal services among this model's industries. Potential tasks include outdoor material handling, grounds maintenance, and public works duties where cold conditions and grip affect glove selection.
For glass handling or sharp materials, match the required cut protection to documented test results before assigning the glove. The manufacturer's industry examples do not establish suitability for every task within those industries.
Fit and Ordering
Compare other SHOWA work gloves when your job calls for a specified cut rating, different coating, or closer fit. Insulation and coating coverage should be considered alongside dexterity, rather than selected by appearance alone.
This listing offers Large, corresponding to SHOWA size 10. Check finger movement and your ability to grip the actual tools or materials used at work. Account for sleeve overlap when assessing the gauntlet fit.
The published 12-inch measurement is the overall glove length, not the length of the cuff alone. Review the SHOWA 95NFW manufacturer datasheet for construction, sizing, and packaging details.
Inspection Before Use
Check for coating damage, worn gripping surfaces, and a damp or damaged liner. Remove compromised gloves from service. Follow SHOWA care instructions rather than assuming that machine washing, solvents, or direct heat will preserve the glove construction.
FAQ
What temperature are these gloves rated for?
The referenced datasheet provides no minimum operating temperature. Assess exposure duration, moisture, activity, and warming breaks before selecting them for freezer work.
Are these gloves approved for food contact?
The referenced datasheet does not establish food contact compliance. Obtain documentation for the intended food and contact conditions before using them for direct food handling.
Does this listing include a case?
SHOWA lists 36 pairs per manufacturer case. That packaging specification does not establish ASA's selling unit; confirm the quantity supplied before ordering.
