Ansell Glove Sizing Information

How to figure out which size glove you need

To know what size glove you need, you must first find out your hand size.

To do this, measure around your hand, above the thumb and below the fingers. The best tool for this is a dressmaker’s cloth tape measure, but you can also wrap a strip of paper around your hand, mark the length, and then flatten the paper out to find the length on an ordinary ruler.

Your hand diameter in inches measured in this manner, rounded to the nearest half-inch, is numerically equal to your nominal glove size. (If you are using a metric tape measure, divide cm by 2.5 to obtain your hand size.) For example: if the measurement taken is 8 inches, then you would select a size 8 glove. If your measurement is over 8 inches then you should select the next size larger in order to avoid hand fatigue from a glove that is too small.

Note that this measurement for glove size is made on the hand. Whether you are using thin disposable gloves, thick gloves padded with insulation, or anything in between, your glove size will be about the same.

This system does not account for all possible variations in hand size, of course. For example, some people have long slim fingers and others have short stubby fingers. You may find that the gloves that fit you most comfortably are designated as one-half or even one full size larger or smaller than your measured hand size.

If the gloves you are purchasing come in lettered sizes such as XS, S, M, L, XL, or XXL, these can be easily translated to a numerical size for easy selection. If you need assistance, refer to the chart provided here:

Size (Numerical)	Size (Lettered)	Inches	Centimeters
6	XS	5-6	15
7	S	6-7	18
8	M	7 - 8	20
9	L	8 -9	23
10	XL	9 -10	25
11	XXL	10 -11	28

How to Choose the Right Fire Extinguisher

Need Help Picking the Correct Fire Extinguisher? For Business REMEMBER THE PASS WORD Stand 6 to 8 feet away from the fire and follow the four-step PASS procedure recommended by National Fire Protection Association: P - Pull the pin and hold the extinguisher with the nozzle pointing away from you. A - Aim low at the base of the fire. S - Squeeze the lever slowly and evenly to discharge the extinguishing agent. (When the agent first hits the fire, the fire may briefly flare up. This should be expected.) S - Sweep the nozzle from side to side, moving carefully toward the fire. Keep the extinguisher aimed at the base of the fire. USE SAFELY Fire extinguishers are only one element of a complete fire survival plan. Only use your extinguisher after making sure: All residents of the home have been evacuated to safety The fire department has been notified There is a clear exit behind the person using the extinguisher Use your extinguisher only to keep a small self-contained fire from growing, only when the room is not filled with smoke, or to create a safe pathway out of the home. Read the instructions and become familiar with your fire extinguisher's parts and operation before a fire breaks out. For Home

Part 1: Introduction to French Creek Production Products - Horizontal Lifelines

We now carry fall protection supplies and equipment from French Creek Production.  Each week we will be highlighting a different area that they cover.

French Creek Horizontal Lifelines
Manufactured of synthetic rope or wire rope, FCP's horizontal lifeline systems allow one or two workers (up to 310 lbs. each) to remain tied off while in horizontal transition between two anchor points. The lifelines can be anchored by anchorage connector straps, D-bolt anchors, anchor plates, or other compatible anchorage connectors. The line tensioner on the rope system is used for line adjustment and proper tension. 

Wire rope systems use a turn buckle and combination clamp to achieve proper adjustment and tension. All Horizontal Lifelines come in standard lengths of 30' or 60'.
