Uvex C500 foam Black Green Polyethylene Viscose Polyamide Fiberglass

The Uvex C500 foam Black Green is a protective work glove designed for adult use, constructed from a blend of polyethylene, viscose, polyamide and fiberglass. The glove combines a lightweight polyethylene core with viscose and polyamide layers for comfortable fit and breathability, while fiberglass reinforcement provides additional cut resistance and durability. A foam coating on the palm and fingers improves grip and handling of dry and slightly oily components. The black and green color combination offers a clear visual contrast for size and wear inspection.

Advantages

The glove offers a balance of cut protection, dexterity and tactile sensitivity due to its multi-material construction. Foam coating enhances grip performance without significantly reducing flexibility, and viscose/polyamide knit provides comfortable wear for extended tasks. Fiberglass fibres increase abrasion and cut resistance at critical contact areas. The overall design is lightweight, resists common workplace contaminants, and simplifies replacing worn gloves thanks to clear color coding.

How to use

Select the correct glove size for a snug but comfortable fit. Inspect gloves before each use for cuts, tears or worn coating; replace if damage is found. Put the glove on by inserting the hand into the knitted cuff and adjusting the fingers for full coverage. Use the foam-coated palm and fingers to handle parts, tools and materials, taking advantage of the improved grip for precise movements. After use, remove gloves by pulling from the cuff to avoid contact with contaminated surfaces, and store in a dry, ventilated area away from direct sunlight and chemicals.

Recommendations

These gloves are suitable for tasks with low to moderate mechanical hazards; they are not intended for high-cut environments, chemical protection, thermal or electrical hazards. For tasks with higher cut risk or exposure to chemicals, select gloves with the appropriate certification and higher protection ratings.
