ESD WHITE PU TOP GLOVES

1. Introduction: The Evolution of Precision Hand Protection

In high-technology industries such as electronics, semiconductor, and cleanroom manufacturing, even the smallest static discharge or contaminant can lead to costly product failures. To meet the stringent safety and cleanliness standards of these sectors, PU-Coated Fingertip ESD Gloves provide the ideal balance of static control, dexterity, and comfort.

Crafted using conductive fibers, a lightweight seamless liner, and polyurethane-coated fingertips, these gloves ensure precise handling of sensitive components while preventing electrostatic discharge (ESD) and contamination risks.

Whether you’re assembling microchips, inspecting optical components, or handling printed circuit boards (PCBs), these gloves empower technicians and engineers to work with unmatched precision and confidence.

2. Certified ESD Protection — EN 16350 / IEC 61340 Compliance

The PU-Coated Fingertip Gloves are fully compliant with EN 16350:2014 and IEC 61340-5-1 standards, ensuring safe use in electrostatically protected areas (EPA) and cleanroom environments.

What These Standards Mean:

• EN 16350:2014 — Specifies electrostatic properties for gloves used in areas where flammable or explosive environments may occur.

• IEC 61340-5-1 — Governs ESD control measures in electronics manufacturing and assembly environments.

These gloves feature carbon-based conductive fibers woven into the liner, effectively dissipating static electricity and preventing ESD buildup — protecting sensitive components from electrical damage during handling or assembly.

Surface Resistivity:

10⁶ – 10⁹ Ω (Ohms) – Ideal range for ESD-safe handling environments.

By meeting international compliance standards, these gloves serve as essential ESD control equipment for laboratories, assembly lines, and quality inspection zones.

3. PU-Coated Fingertips — Grip, Control, and Breathability

Unlike fully coated gloves, these are precision-engineered with PU coating only on the fingertips — giving technicians a perfect blend of tactile sensitivity and control without sacrificing comfort.

Key Advantages of PU Fingertip Coating:

• Enhanced Finger Grip: Provides exceptional control for small components, screws, and micro-tools.

• Non-Slip Surface: Prevents accidental slips when handling delicate electronics or instruments.

• Superior Tactile Sensitivity: Enables users to feel textures, edges, and resistance accurately during fine assembly.

• Breathable Construction: Keeps the rest of the glove uncoated, maintaining airflow and minimizing perspiration.

• Anti-Dust & Anti-Fingerprint Finish: Ensures clean handling of optical or electronic surfaces.

This design supports precision assembly tasks where a full coating would reduce dexterity or cause unnecessary heat buildup.

4. Conductive Fiber Liner — Static Dissipation and Comfort Combined

The glove’s liner is crafted from high-quality polyester yarn blended with conductive carbon fibers, ensuring safe static dissipation and all-day comfort.

Core Features:

• Integrated Carbon Filaments: Conduct electricity safely from the surface of the glove to the ground.

• Even Conductivity: Uniform fiber distribution prevents static buildup in any area of the glove.

• Lightweight and Soft Texture: Ideal for prolonged wear in controlled environments.

• Low Particle Shedding: Minimizes contamination risk in sensitive assembly or cleanroom conditions.

This ensures that each glove performs consistently and safely, even in EPA (Electrostatic Protected Area) zones or Class 100–1000 cleanroom environments.

5. Ergonomic Design for Maximum Dexterity

Comfort and precision are vital for high-accuracy work. These gloves feature a seamless 13-gauge knit design that conforms naturally to the shape of the hand.

Design Highlights:

• Seamless Construction: Reduces hand fatigue, irritation, and pressure points.

• Elastic Wrist Cuff: Ensures a secure fit and prevents debris or lint from entering.

• Ultra-Lightweight Feel: Maintains natural movement for fine motor control.

• Breathable Backing: Allows hands to stay cool and dry during long shifts.

• Anatomically Contoured Fit: Designed to enhance precision grip and hand flexibility.

Technicians can perform delicate tasks such as soldering, wire connection, or optical alignment without removing their gloves — ensuring both product protection and user comfort.

9. How ESD Gloves Protect Sensitive Electronics

When humans move, friction between skin, clothing, or tools generates static electricity — which can discharge at voltages over 3,000 volts. Such discharges are invisible yet powerful enough to destroy microchips and integrated circuits instantly.

The PU-Coated Fingertip Gloves work as a static-control medium, transferring accumulated charge from the operator through the glove’s carbon fiber network to a grounded surface. This keeps charge potential below the critical threshold, ensuring zero damage to ESD-sensitive devices (ESDS).

The gloves also help maintain EPA compliance, forming a crucial part of a complete ESD safety system alongside grounding straps, mats, and anti-static work surfaces.

10. Cleanroom Compatibility and Hygiene

These gloves are engineered for controlled environments such as Class 100–1000 cleanrooms. Their low-lint polyester composition and non-shedding coating ensure minimal contamination risk.
