Klein Tools 40008 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size are the Klein Tools 40008 leather work gloves?
The Klein 40008 medium-cuff leather gloves are Large only. There is no size run on this part number, so if your crew needs small, medium or extra-large, you are looking at a different Klein glove model. Order 40008 when you want Large.
2) How long is the cuff on the Klein 40008 gloves, and does it keep water out?
It is a medium-length cuff, 2-1/2 inches of rubberized waterproof material. That is enough to cover the wrist and shed water, wet concrete, or cutting oil running down the hand, but it is not a gauntlet. If you need coverage up the forearm for overhead wet work, go with a long gauntlet cuff glove instead.
3) Are the Klein 40008 gloves rubber insulating gloves for live electrical work?
No. The 40008 is a heavy sueded leather work glove, not a rubber insulating glove and not a leather protector worn over one. It is for general electrical installation, construction, and maintenance handling, pulling wire, handling conduit and tools. Energized work requires rated rubber insulating gloves with leather protectors.
4) Will I still have enough dexterity in these leather gloves to handle small fasteners and hand tools?
Better than most heavy leather gloves. The 40008 uses a Gunn cut with the seams moved off the high-wear palm surfaces, a wing thumb, and a seamless index finger, so there is no seam ridge across the fingertip you pinch with. Palm and fingers are lined, and an elastic strap at the back of the wrist keeps the glove from shifting on your hand.
5) Can I use the Klein 40008 gloves for outdoor and wet-weather construction work?
Yes, that is what the waterproof rubberized cuff is for, and the model is listed for outdoor construction and infrastructure work, utility and telecom work, and heavy equipment operation and maintenance. The cuff keeps runoff and debris out at the wrist; the leather body itself is sueded leather, so treat it as water-shedding rather than a sealed rain glove.
6) What is the manufacturer part number to order these Klein gloves for a facility PPE standard?
Klein Tools part number 40008, the Medium-Cuff Leather Work Glove in Large. Ordering by 40008 gets you the same glove every time, which is what you want if you are stocking one glove across a crew or an MRO cage rather than mixing cuff lengths.
7) How much do the Klein 40008 gloves weigh per pair?
7.7 oz (218 g) for the pair. That puts them in heavy-duty leather territory rather than a light drivers glove, which is what you want for abrasion from conduit, strut, and rough lumber, but it is noticeable on an all-day fine-work task.
