Tegera Oil Grip 8855 Cut Level C Nitrile Foam Gloves

A thin cut C glove that keeps its grip in oily conditions

Tegera Oil Grip 8855 is an 18 gauge knitted cut resistant glove with a nitrile foam palm. Ejendals positions it as a versatile cut C glove that grips well in dry, moist and slightly oily environments, with touchscreen functionality and a reinforcement between thumb and index finger. The liner uses CRF cut resistant technology and contains 30% recycled polyester.

The sheet adds one note that matters on the shop floor: the oil grip needs a few minutes of oil contact to activate. The foam nitrile surface works as a normal grip glove in dry conditions and improves once it has met oil. The glove is Oeko-Tex approved and comes in an unusually wide size range, 5 to 12.

Technical specifications

Sizes and article numbers

Reading the EN 388 result

The code 4X43C is abrasion 4, blade cut not tested (X), tear 4, puncture 3, and ISO 13997 cut level C (code structure from EN 388). The blade cut field is X because the cut level is determined with the ISO 13997 method, which the sheet reports as 12.4 N. Level C is a mid-range cut level, suitable for sheet handling and metal parts with moderate edges. For fine, sharp stock compare the Tegera 8846 at level F.

Eight sizes are available, which helps in mixed crews where small-handed workers usually get an oversized glove. Order by article number with size, such as 8855-9, and note that bundles are 6 pairs and bulk cartons are 72 pairs.

Use, activation and care

Allow a few minutes of oil contact before judging the oil grip, as the sheet notes. Keep the glove away from open flame and hot surfaces, as no heat rating is printed. The knit cuff keeps the glove on the hand and closes the wrist gap.

Wash only according to the manufacturer label, and replace the glove when the foam wears through to the liner or the fingertips begin to fray; once the nitrile layer is gone the cut and abrasion performance printed on the sheet no longer applies.

Metal parts, maintenance and logistics

Areas of use printed include assembly, installation work, machine operating, metalwork, sheet-metal work, repair work, transport work and warehouse work. The listed industries include oil and gas extraction, metal fabrication, machinery manufacturing, electricity and gas supply, mining and quarrying, and building and construction. In workshops and yards that means pipe-fitting, panel handling, spare-part picking and light oily maintenance.

Selection and care notes

Use this glove where cut risk is moderate and the work is light assembly, handling of oily parts or sheet metal. Check the cut level against the task, since level C does not protect against heavy blades or machine hazards. Since the oil grip works after contact with oil, new gloves may feel less grippy at first. Wash according to the care label and replace the glove when the palm coating is worn through.
