The PIP 56-3170 ArmorLite nitrile-dipped glove combines a lightweight coating with a flexible knitwrist for general handling across manufacturing, assembly, fabrication, parts handling, inspection, maintenance, and shipping tasks. Its Armor Series design delivers a thin nitrile coating on a cotton interlock liner, balancing abrasion resistance with tactile sensitivity and dexterity. The blue nitrile coating is textured on the palm, fingers, and knuckles to provide reliable grip while maintaining a comfortable, low-coating-deposit profile that supports extended wear. Treated with ActiFresh, the glove is designed to help reduce odors and germs, which can be beneficial in work environments where gloves are worn for prolonged periods. The gloves are launderable, offering potential cost savings through repeated use when appropriate for your facility’s procedures.
From a performance standpoint, the ArmorLite construction targets protection against common workplace hazards such as cuts, punctures, snags, and abrasion, while also providing resistance to grease and oils. The product is specified as natural color, cut-and-sewn construction, with an interlock liner and nitrile coating. Documented EN 388 ratings indicate moderate abrasion resistance (4), with lower ratings for cut (1) and puncture (1), and a tear resistance of 2, reflecting a balanced emphasis on grip, flexibility, and protection suitable for light-to-moderate tasks. This makes the glove suitable for tasks requiring dexterity and tactile feedback without sacrificing basic protection.
The PIP 56-3170 is packaged as a dozen per box, with a case quantity of six dozen, which aligns with typical industrial PPE stocking and replenishment cycles. The gloves are designed for general handling and varied manual tasks rather than heavy-duty protection. When selecting sizes and managing inventory, consider the need for frequent donning and doffing, laundering frequency, and the facility’s requirements for grip on oily or contaminated parts. While not a substitute for higher-cut or higher-puncture-rated PPE in demanding environments, these gloves offer a practical, economical option for everyday material handling and assembly work.
