ESD gloves are specialized hand protection that prevents the build-up of static electricity, which can cause damage to sensitive equipment, as well as contamination of products by dust, dirt, and oils that can be transferred by human hands.

Choosing the right ESD inspection gloves depends on your application, comfort preferences, durability requirements and budget.

The GL4500 is designed for users who want greater comfort, durability, and long-term value. The 13-gauge nylon construction provides a softer, more flexible feel than polyester, while conductive carbon filaments are woven directly into the fabric to provide permanent ESD protection.

Choose the GL4500 if you:
• Need a durable glove for everyday use
• Prefer a softer, more comfortable glove
• Wash your gloves regularly
• Want long-lasting ESD performance

The GL3500 is an excellent choice for general-purpose ESD inspection where cost is an important consideration. Made from lightweight 13- gauge polyester, it provides a comfortable fit and reliable static protection through a specialized conductive coating

Choose the GL3500 if you:
• Perform general inspection and assembly work
• Primarily use disposable or lightly washed gloves
• Want the lowest cost option

The GL2500 is built for environments where both ESD protection and hand safety are critical. Constructed from advanced 18-gauge Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers with conductive carbon filaments, it offers outstanding comfort while providing ANSI Cut Level A3 protection against sharp edges.

Choose the GL2500 if you:
• Handle sharp metal, glass, or machined parts
• Need ANSI Cut Level A3 protection
• Require permanent ESD performance
• Want maximum durability without sacrificing dexterity

Made with the same Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers with conductive carbon filaments as the GL2500, but thicker and are certified Cut Level A6.

Choose the GL6500 if you:
• Handle sharp metal, glass, or machined parts more frequenly
• Need ANSI Cut Level A6 protection
• Require permanent ESD performance
• Want maximum cut protection while also being ESD-safe

SUMMARY: Quick Selection Guide

Choose GL3500 if your priority is lowest cost for general ESD inspection.

Choose GL4500 if your priority is comfort, durability, and permanent ESD protection for daily use.

Choose GL2500 if your priority is worker protection, requiring both ANSI Cut Level A3 cut resistance and permanent ESD protection.

Choose GL6500 if your priority is worker protection, requiring both ANSI Cut Level A6 cut resistance and permanent ESD protection.
