MAX Fully Coated PVC Knit Wrist Gloves
The MAX Fully Coated PVC Knit Wrist Glove is a robust general handling glove built for tasks where full hand coverage, oil resistance, and abrasion resistance are the primary requirements. The 13-gauge white polyester liner is fully coated in smooth red PVC from fingertips to wrist, leaving no unprotected area on the palm or back of the hand. The elasticated cotton knit wrist provides a secure fit that prevents the glove from sliding during active work and reduces liquid ingress at the cuff. Certified to EN 388:2016 + A1:2018 with a score of 4131X and carrying both CE Cat II and UKCA marking, the MAX PVC Knit Wrist Glove delivers Level 4 abrasion resistance, the maximum achievable rating, alongside Level 3 tear resistance. It is the CMT own-brand specification for construction, waste management, public utilities, and non-hazardous contamination handling tasks where a palm-only coated glove would leave the back of the hand exposed. Available in sizes 9 and 10, supplied in packs of 12 pairs.
Why choose the MAX Fully Coated PVC Knit Wrist Gloves
-
Full PVC coverage on both sides of the hand: Unlike palm-only coated alternatives, the full coating protects the back of the hand from contaminated surfaces, liquid splash, and abrasive contact during waste management and construction tasks.
-
Level 4 abrasion resistance: EN 388:2016 score of 4 out of 4, the maximum rating, confirms the PVC coating withstands sustained surface contact under heavy mechanical use.
-
Oil resistance for contaminated environments: The PVC coating provides reliable protection against oil and non-hazardous liquid contact, making this the correct specification for waste management, drain clearance, and public utilities tasks.
-
Seamless breathable polyester liner: The 13-gauge seamless construction reduces bulk and pressure points whilst maintaining breathability for extended shift wear.
-
Elasticated knit wrist: The cotton knit cuff provides a secure, close fit at the wrist, preventing the glove from shifting during active work and reducing liquid ingress at the cuff edge.
-
CE Cat II and UKCA dual marking: Confirms compliance with both EU PPE Regulation 2016/425 and GB PPE Regulations 2002, covering sites operating under either framework.
-
CMT own-brand value: The MAX range provides direct supply chain control and consistent quality specification at a competitive pack price for bulk site and framework procurement.

Who is this for?
The MAX Fully Coated PVC Knit Wrist Glove is specified by site managers, waste management operatives, local authority procurement teams, and facilities managers supplying gloves for construction, refuse handling, drain clearance, public utilities, and non-hazardous contamination tasks where full hand coverage and oil resistance are required. The fully coated construction makes it the correct choice wherever a palm-only coated glove would leave the back of the hand exposed to contamination, liquid splash, or abrasive contact. Available in sizes 9 and 10, supplied in packs of 12 pairs.
Typical applications
-
Waste management and refuse collection tasks where contaminated surfaces require full hand coverage throughout the shift
-
Drain clearance and public utilities maintenance involving non-hazardous liquid contact and contaminated material handling
-
Construction site general handling tasks requiring oil resistance and high abrasion protection across both sides of the hand
-
Non-hazardous waste and recycling sorting where full PVC coverage prevents contamination reaching the liner
-
Road and highway maintenance tasks involving oils, fuels, and contaminated road debris
-
General mechanical risk tasks in construction and building environments where sustained abrasion resistance is the primary requirement
How to use
-
Select the correct size. Size 9 (L) corresponds to approximately 229 mm palm circumference, size 10 (XL) to approximately 254 mm.
-
Inspect the glove before each use. Check the PVC coating for cracking, separation, or puncture. Discard any damaged pair.
-
Don the glove and ensure the elasticated knit wrist seats securely at the wrist.
-
Use for construction, waste management, and general handling tasks involving oil, non-hazardous liquids, and abrasive surfaces.
-
Do not use near rotating machinery. Entanglement hazard.
-
After removing contaminated gloves, avoid skin contact with any contaminants on the outer surface. Wrap contaminated gloves before discarding.
-
Wash hands thoroughly before donning and after removing gloves.
Safety
-
CE Cat II and UKCA certified, EN 388:2016 + A1:2018 score 4131X. Level 4 abrasion and Level 3 tear resistance.
-
Not suitable for chemical hazards (EN ISO 374), heat, electrical hazards, or bacteriological protection.
-
Do not use near rotating machinery. Entanglement hazard.
-
Does not contain substances known to cause allergies. Additional information on glove composition available on request.
-
Wipe clean with a damp cloth only. Do not machine wash or dry clean as this degrades PVC coating performance.
Maintenance
Wipe the PVC surface clean with a damp cloth after use. Do not machine wash or submerge in solvents as this degrades the PVC coating and reduces certified performance levels. Allow to dry naturally before storing. Store in a well-ventilated area away from extremes of temperature and direct sunlight. Inspect before each use and discard if the PVC coating shows cracking, surface separation, or puncture damage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between a fully coated PVC glove and a palm-only coated glove?
A: A palm-only coated glove leaves the back of the hand covered only by the knitted liner. In waste management, drain clearance, and contamination handling tasks, the back of the hand regularly contacts contaminated surfaces, liquid splash, and abrasive materials. A fully coated glove provides PVC coverage across both sides of the hand, removing the exposed liner area that a palm-only alternative leaves unprotected.
Q: Is the PVC coating resistant to oil?
A: Yes. PVC provides reliable resistance to oil contact during general handling and construction tasks. The glove is not certified for specific chemical protection under EN ISO 374, but it is appropriate for incidental oil, non-hazardous liquid, and contaminated material contact encountered in construction, waste management, and public utilities work.
Q: What does EN 388:2016 + A1:2018 score 4131X mean for this glove?
A: Abrasion resistance Level 4, the maximum achievable rating, blade cut resistance Level 1, tear resistance Level 3, puncture resistance Level 1, and X indicating the TDM cut test was not carried out. The Level 4 abrasion score confirms the PVC coating withstands sustained heavy surface contact under intense mechanical use. The Level 3 tear resistance confirms strong resistance to tearing during contaminated material handling.
Q: What does CE Cat II and UKCA dual marking mean?
A: CE marking confirms compliance with EU PPE Regulation 2016/425. UKCA marking confirms compliance with GB PPE Regulations 2002. Dual marking confirms the glove meets the requirements of both frameworks, covering sites and procurement frameworks operating under either regime post-Brexit.
Q: Can these gloves be washed and reused?
A: Wipe clean with a damp cloth between uses. Machine washing and dry cleaning are not recommended as they degrade the PVC coating and reduce the certified mechanical performance levels. Inspect before each reuse and discard if any cracking, separation, or damage is present.
Q: Is this glove suitable for chemical handling?
A: No. The MAX PVC Knit Wrist Glove provides oil resistance and protection against non-hazardous liquid contact but is not tested or certified for chemical protection under EN ISO 374. For tasks involving hazardous chemicals, a glove with specific chemical resistance certification is required.
Q: Why is this glove fully coated rather than palm-only?
A: The fully coated construction is a deliberate specification choice for waste management, drain clearance, and contamination handling tasks where the back of the hand regularly contacts contaminated or abrasive surfaces. A palm-only coated glove leaves the knitted liner on the back of the hand exposed to these contacts. The full PVC coating eliminates that exposure, providing consistent protection across the entire hand surface.
Q: Why buy MAX PVC Knit Wrist Gloves from CMT Group?
A: CMT Group is a BSIF Registered Safety Supplier and holds ISO 9001:2015, CHAS Elite, and SSIP accreditations, meaning PPE products are sourced through a verified, compliant supply chain.
