Portwest A185 Cold Protection Duo-Thermal Glove

The essentials

The Portwest A185 Duo-Thermal Glove is designed to keep hands warm while maintaining dexterity in cold environments. Its double dipping process provides maximum liquid repellency, helping to keep hands dry when handling wet materials or working in damp conditions. The crinkle latex grip offers reliable control, improving grip on slippery objects and tools. Inside, a warm 7 gauge acrylic liner delivers substantial insulation without excessive bulk, making it suitable for prolonged wear in freezing conditions. The low linting construction helps minimise contamination in delicate workflows, such as assembly lines or precision handling, while CE certification confirms adherence to essential safety standards. This glove integrates a robust liner with a practical outer finish, balancing warmth, durability and tactile feedback for everyday use.

With EN ISO 21420: 2020, EN 388: 2016 + A1: 2018, and EN 511: 2006 ratings, the A185 is engineered for real world performance. Expect strong cut, abrasion and tear resistance from the combination of materials, alongside warmth that protects without overheating. The design prioritises comfort during long shifts, and the glove’s colourway makes it easy to spot in busy work environments. If you frequently handle cold or damp items, these gloves offer a sensible, value‑for‑money option that won’t let you down on site. The yellow and blue finish adds visibility for safety, while the sizeable Large fit supports a comfortable, natural hand posture for extended periods.

In practice, this glove works well for general cold‑weather tasks, material handling in chilly rooms, and assembly work where dry hands and precise control matter. It is robust enough for daily use yet flexible enough to prevent fatigue at the end of the day. To get the most from the A185, pair it with appropriate outer protection when handling particularly wet or chemical substances, and routinely check for wear on the latex grip to maintain consistent performance. Overall, it offers dependable warmth, solid grip, and practical durability for professional use in demanding environments. 🧤❄️
