Don’t Forget the Leather Protector!

Care, Storage & Recertification
Rubber gloves should be:
-
Visually inspected before each use for cuts, tears, or signs of ozone damage
-
Air-tested regularly (we’ll show you how!)
-
Stored cuff-down in canvas bags to avoid creasing or cracking
-
Re-tested every 6 months (per OSHA 1910.137)
