When handling wire cable, it's important to protect your hands with suitable safety gloves. While specific brands aren't mentioned in the provided documents, the following materials are recommended for safety gloves based on ANSI/ISEA 105 and 29 CFR 1910.138 1, 2, 7:

  • Polychloroprene (CR): thickness >=0,5mm; breakthrough time >=480min 1, 7
  • Nitrile rubber (NBR): thickness >=0,35mm; breakthrough time >=480min 1, 7
  • Butyl rubber (IIR): thickness >=0,5mm; breakthrough time >=480min 1, 7
  • Fluorinated rubber (FKM): thickness >=0,4mm; breakthrough time >=480min 2, 7

Also, consider contacting suppliers of CE-approved gloves, such as KCL GmbH, for recommendations specific to your task 3, 4, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20.
