The thenar Eminenc reinforcement design of protective gloves is designed to improve the protection performance of gloves in critical areas, especially in the work environment requiring high wear resistance, non-slip or puncture resistance. The following is a detailed introduction to the reinforcement of labor protection gloves
Design and purpose
Thenar Eminence reinforced: Protective gloves are specially reinforced at the jaws (the area between the palm and thumb) to provide additional protection. Purpose: To prevent injuries caused by friction, cutting, puncturing or high temperature at work.
Material selection
Cowhide: Many high-end and professional protective gloves use a second layer of suede or a top layer of cowhide for reinforcement at the thenar Eminence’s mouth. This material is wear-resistant, high temperature resistant, and has high puncture resistance.
Wear-resistant fabric: Canvas gloves are also reinforced with wear-resistant materials at the jaws to provide additional protection.The double layer fabric can be thickened to achieve a wear-resistant effect.
Edge locking design: Sew another circle of thread between the palm and thumb to make it more wear-resistant and firm. Some gloves use anti-cutting yarn to strengthen the design at the mouth, and sew a circle of anti-opening thread at the edge of the mouth to increase durability.
Nitrile:Add a nitrile coating between the thumb and index finger to make the grasping tool more slippery and wear-resistant. oil, grease, petrochemical products and lubricants and various solvents of chemical substances have good protection performance.The area of the nitrile can be customized according to the customer’s needs and can be extended to the tip of the index finger.
Applicable industries and scenarios
- Welding: When the welder is working, the glove mouth is easy to contact with high temperature welding sparks, so the glove reinforced is necessary.
- Machinery manufacturing: In the machinery manufacturing industry, workers often need to operate a variety of tools and equipment, and gloves with thenar Eminence reinforcement can prevent hands from being cut by machines or tools
- Steel smelting: Workers in the steel smelting industry often need to carry heavy loads and contact high temperature objects, and gloves reinforced with thenar Eminence jaws can provide better hand protection.

Note
- Choose the right size: Make sure the gloves are comfortable and not easy to come off,
- Regular replacement: Protective gloves are expendable and need to be replaced regularly to maintain their protective properties.
- Avoid excessive wear: Try to avoid contact with sharp objects during use to reduce the wear of gloves
Conclusion
The design of reinforcing the jaws of labor protection gloves is one of the important measures to protect the safety of workers’ hands. When selecting and using protective gloves, the appropriate style and material should be selected according to the working environment and needs, and ensure that the gloves are worn correctly, comfortably and effectively.
