Nitrile-Coated Cotton Work Gloves from Canada

Heavy-duty gloves cut and sewn from cotton canvas fabric pre-impregnated with nitrile rubber on the palms and fingers for enhanced grip and protection. Designed for industrial handling tasks, they lack fourchettes and meet the criteria for HTS 6216.00.17 as gloves of vegetable fibers (cotton) coated with rubber without fourchettes. The machine-woven base fabric is coated prior to construction, providing water and abrasion resistance.
