Dexterity is the ability to perform tasks easily and skillfully by using hands.

Cut resistant:

Auto mechanic professionals are frequently engaged in dealing with sharp metals and objects that can cause injury to hands. Cut resistant gloves are designed to protect their hands from cuts and punctures while working with blades and glass products. They work best for assembly line workers who are occupied in handling parts and tools.

Oil and Chemical resistance:

Workers in the automotive industry require gloves that would protect their hands against chemical and hazardous substances such as car fluids, brake oil, paints and other elements that are absorbed by the skin and cause damage. The oil-resistant auto mechanic gloves offer improved grip and comfort.

Gloves that are comfortable to wear and offer flexibility to perform tasks are a perfect choice for any job.
