Ansell AlphaTec 87-108 glove

AlphaTec 87-108 Protective Glove

When you're working in demanding environments where chemical exposure and mechanical hazards are part of the job, you need hand protection that actually delivers. The AlphaTec 87-108 glove from Ansell is engineered for professionals who won't compromise on safety or durability. Built with a robust 1.50 mm thick natural rubber latex coating, this arm protection glove extends 610 mm up the forearm, offering serious coverage where you need it most. The fully coated design features a smooth, chlorinated surface treatment that's been hardened to provide consistent performance across construction sites, agricultural work, steel industry operations, and chemical processing environments. The rolled edge adds practical durability to the glove opening, whilst the smooth latex finish delivers excellent flexibility and elasticity to keep liquids from seeping through. You're getting chemical resistance that covers a broad spectrum of inorganic bases, acids, and oxidising agents, alongside reliable protection against mechanical wear and tear. This isn't about looking the part; it's about genuine protection that lets you focus on getting the job done properly.

Key Features

• 1.50 mm thick natural rubber latex coating for durability
• Extended 610 mm length provides forearm and arm protection
• Chlorinated surface treatment for hardness and cleanliness
• High resistance to water-based chemicals and hazardous substances
• Rolled edge design prevents premature fraying and wear

Recommendations from our Unishore Expert

We recommend the AlphaTec 87-108 glove for professionals across industry and service roles, construction and installation work, agricultural operations, and steel industry applications. The extended cuff design is particularly valuable when you're handling corrosive or irritant substances, as it shields your forearms from splash and contact exposure. The smooth coating provides reliable grip and flexibility without the stiffness that can make extended wear uncomfortable. You'll appreciate how the material maintains its elasticity throughout your working day, preventing that rigid, fatiguing feeling you get with lower-grade protection. This is a premium choice from the AlphaTec collection when your work demands both chemical barrier protection and mechanical resilience.
