- Insulating Gloves For High Voltage Electrical Work 1.8mm-Thickness Protective Gloves Cut & Stab Resistant 12kVAC/22kVDC Max Red Rubber Insulating Handwear For Lineworker Electricians

They are made of thick rubber, definitely make me feel safer. I keep them in my tool bag for when I have to discharge a capacitor. Like the other reviews say, they have a weird smell. Its not disgusting, its just a weird industrial smell. I just wash my hands after and the smell is gone. Edit- after almost a year of use, the smell has gone away. They are still holding up well after sitting in my work van all summer and regular use. Recommend.

very good

Using chemicals to strip furniture, hold up great, plus forearm cover. Great buy

These gloves are hard to function with but I feel the protection when they are on my hands. Quality is good enough for what they are used for and they fit just like a glove. lol. They do fit good. Feel warm. but look like huge on my hands. They do the job

Arrived well packaged. Did not have the bad odour reported by some others; only the mild smell of rubber; like walking past the tire department at Kmart. Made of heavy rubber. Arrived in a cloth bag. I hung the gloves and bag in my basement to air out, just as I do many other products that arrive in an air tight package. Did not cause any odour in the basement. Perhaps I was lucky and some other buyers weren't, but I'm happy with the purchase. I have no way of testing how much voltage these gloves could handle. But I would feel comfortable using them to do wiring jobs around my house.

Great gloves for the money. They were somewhat tight to get on; however, a little powder fixed that. (Admittedly, I have thick fingers.) The price point was great.

Many reviewers have commented on the odor of these gloves. They do have an odor but it was not excessive to me. The gloves are bulky as are all gloves of this type. I would not want to wear these for hours a day, but that is highly unlikely for most people. They are hot and sweaty which is to be expected. Get your preperation work done in advance and put these gloves on when you are near potentially high voltage. I suggest the SAS Safety 6468 Leather Protective Over Gloves. Makes it less likely a wire strand could penetrate the glove giving you a possible life threatening shock.

Good gloves but I wish they would offer them in different sizes for the consumer. They are size 11 which is too big for most men.
