In the oil and gas industry, where safety is paramount, visibility and protection are key. In this context, RINGERS® R297 gloves stand out as a leading choice, combining a number of unique factors.
They offer high impact protection and provide exceptional grip and cut performance. Any personal protective equipment in the oil industry should include them as one of its elementary garments. The reason? High visibility in working environments such as oil and gas.
Advanced protection for rigorous jobs
PPE in the oil industry includes helmet, goggles, footwear, respiratory protection and, of course, good gloves. The tasks performed are diverse and can be in refineries, as well as in open or enclosed spaces.
The common denominator is the treatment of hazardous substances and in environments with a high risk of accidents or mishaps. Duties include drilling, logging and measuring data or working with pipelines. Pumping, workshops and laboratories, construction or laying of subsea lines are others. This is in addition to maintenance, storage and transportation, and loading and unloading.
Consequently, hands are often exposed, so protecting them is essential. These gloves not only meet the highest standards, but also ensure that workers are visible and protected.
R297 RINGERS® have been designed for high intensity work. Key features ensure exceptional performance and fit any gasoline or oil handling PPE.
Fuel handling protective equipment incorporating this product will have added value in ensuring the safety of workers. These gloves are manufactured with state-of-the-art technology, for an industry that requires high levels of occupational risk prevention. They also take into account the need to be seen in low visibility situations, whether in smoke or adverse weather conditions.
Impact protection
The top of the hand and the entire length of the fingers are equipped with thermoplastic rubber (TPR). This provides good impact defense and allows safety measures to be complied with. This type of characteristics are ideal for tasks such as handling heavy tools or oily materials.
Airprene wrist fastener
Safety begins with a secure fit. Longer Airprene wrist closure with TPR tab ensures gloves stay in place during intensive tasks. Thus, it provides safety and comfort during long working days.
Kevlar® stitching and palm padding
Additional strength is provided by Kevlar® stitching and palm padding. This makes them resistant and very durable, which is crucial due to the type of work carried out in this sector.
High visibility for safety
The high visibility of these gloves complies with all safety standards. They also increase situational awareness in environments where visibility is crucial. Being seen is important in this industry for several key reasons, all related to safety and operational efficiency.
In oil installations, workers, as well as vehicles, equipment and structures must be easily visible. This prevents dangerous situations that could result in personal injury or significant property damage.
In case of emergencies, being visible facilitates coordination and organization. A similar situation occurs in night operations and in adverse conditions.
Commitment to total security
In the oil and gas industry, where tasks are performed under very demanding conditions, choosing the right gloves improves safety significantly. RINGERS® models offer not only comprehensive protection against impacts and cuts, but also prioritize visibility, reducing the risks associated with lack of vision in critical environments.
In short, RINGERS® R297 gloves are the ideal choice for those seeking maximum safety in the oil and gas industry. With their innovative design, comfort, strength and fit, they ensure that workers are equipped to meet any challenge. Likewise, they do not neglect the need for flexibility, dexterity or safety when working with fluids or abrasion hazards. Ansell is the best option to acquire them, due to their experience and the quality equipment they offer.
