Klein Tools 60596 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Are Klein Tools general purpose work gloves rated for electrical work on live circuits?
No. These are general purpose work gloves, not insulating rubber gloves. The Klein Tools general purpose glove is uninsulated and carries no safety-feature rating, so it is not a substitute for Class 00 through Class 4 rubber insulating gloves when working energized. Use them for wire pulling, device mounting, conduit handling and other de-energized tasks where you want abrasion protection and dexterity.
2) What sizes do the Klein Tools touchscreen work gloves come in, and what part number do I order?
Four sizes: Small is part 60594, Medium is 60595, Large is 60596 and X-Large is 60597. They are unisex sizing, so one size run covers the whole crew.
3) Can I really use a phone or tablet without pulling these gloves off?
Yes. The fingertips on the Klein general purpose glove are touchscreen compatible, so you can run a phone, tablet or a touchscreen meter or panel interface with the gloves on. Worth testing on your own device before you start, since case thickness and screen sensitivity vary.
4) Will these gloves hold up to abrasion on framing and conduit work, or are they just a light dexterity glove?
The palm and the palm pad are suede, with a suede thumb patch at the high-wear point, so they take abrasion better than a plain knit glove. The back is stretch spandex for flexibility rather than protection, and there is no knuckle strap, so for impact work you want a glove with hard knuckle protection instead.
5) Are these work gloves waterproof or good for cold weather outdoor work?
No on both counts. The Klein general purpose glove is not water resistant, not insulated and unlined, so it is a three-season dry-condition glove. For winter line work or wet trenching you need an insulated or coated glove.
6) Do these gloves contain latex? We have crew members with a latex allergy.
No latex in the Klein general purpose work glove. Construction is spandex and suede, so it is safe to issue to workers with a latex sensitivity.
7) How does the cuff close, and will it stay put under a long sleeve?
A hook and loop wrist strap with a TPR pull tab closes the cuff, so you can snug it down over or under a sleeve and get the glove on and off one-handed. Overall glove length is 5 inches (12.7 cm), so this is a short wrist-length cuff, not a gauntlet.
8) Do these gloves have a grippy coated palm for handling wet or oily parts?
No coating. The Klein general purpose glove has a bare suede palm with no anti-slip grip treatment, so grip comes from the leather itself. For slick or oily handling, choose a nitrile- or PU-dipped glove instead.
9) Are these safe to use around hot work like soldering or brazing?
No. The Klein general purpose glove is not heat resistant, and suede plus spandex is not a hot-work material. Keep them off torch, brazing and welding tasks and use a leather welding glove for that.
10) Can these gloves be washed and reissued, or are they throwaway?
They are machine washable, which is why they work as an issued glove rather than a consumable. Suede palms do stiffen after washing, so inspect the palm and fingertips after each cycle and pull them from service once the palm is worn through.
11) What color are the Klein general purpose gloves, and how much does a pair weigh?
Black, orange and grey. Each pair is listed at 0.1 lbs, light enough that hand fatigue is not a factor over a full shift.
