Combine Models for ultimate protection

Need cut protection for your Eureka Winter glove? Need to make you Eureka Cut Protection glove warmer during winter? Need to take off your gloves for high precision work in very cold environments?

Use Case #1

In severe winter conditions thick and warm gloves such as the Eureka MF Nordic Winter is needed to maintain hand temperature. If there is a need for high precision under those conditions the gloves have to be temporary taken off. Bare hands cool down very fast and its difficult to regain warmth in the hands. Mountaineers and other expeditions have long used a system of a very thin inner glove that increase insulation and also provides for a critical barrier between the skin and the icing wind.

The Eureka 13-1 Insider provides an excellent solution as a winter insider. The hollow filament fibre is warm, durable, provides a good grip and dries very fast if wet.

Use Case #2

Eureka Safety’s Food series gloves have an extra function up their cuff! Combine our 18-4 Cool Insider to add cut protection to any glove. Combine our 13-1 Insider to add warmth to your hand protection, or, for those really cold winter days, add an extra layer of insulation to your PU Grip Winter Waterproof  to keep your hands comfortable and functional.

Eureka Safety ESD and ATEX

“Harnessing Electrostatic Properties: Ensuring Safety for You and Your Electronics”

Have you ever experienced a small zap when touching something? This is caused by the separation of positive and negative charges, creating localized electrostatic charges. These small zaps, while often harmless to us, can be damaging to electronic devices and, in extreme cases, can ignite explosive atmospheres.

At Eureka, we’re committed to addressing these risks head-on and have tested all of our products’ electrical properties.

Understanding ATEX Risks: ATEX pertains to the accidental ignition of explosive atmospheres like hydrogen, natural gas, gasoline, or even dust. Gloves must exhibit an electric resistance of less than 10^9 ohms (one billion ohms) to be deemed safe in these environments.

ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) and Your Electronics: The charge we accumulate might be minuscule, but the resulting voltage can be immense. A synthetic glove can accumulate thousands of volts, and it takes only a 100-volt discharge to damage a computer chip. To protect your devices, we recommend using products with low electric resistance. Gloves that are ESD-safe have a vertical electric resistance below 1*10^8 (100 million ohms).

The Science Behind the Properties:

  • Preventing Charge Accumulation: We incorporate conductive fibers or natural/hydrophilic materials to minimize charge buildup. Synthetic materials like polyester and nylon are more prone to accumulating charges.
  • Discharge Efficiency: The electric resistance of a material determines its discharge rate. Lower resistance means quicker neutralization of a charged glove.

Our product range at Eureka has been categorized based on their electrostatic properties – from high risk (prone to static accumulation and slow discharge) to optimal (low static accumulation and rapid discharge).

Practical Tips:

  • Humidity Matters: Our testing shows that lower humidity levels (25-30% Relative Humidity) increase risks. A higher humidity environment is generally safer.
  • Avoid Low-Grade ESD Materials: Even with moderate Atex/ESD risks, it’s wise to steer clear of materials with poor ESD properties.
  • Prioritize ESD Certification: If facing significant ESD risks, always opt for ESD-certified products.
