It has it's roots in footwear, where we use it to cushion the foot and reduce skeletal shock, but we have also developed grip wraps and palm-lined gloves to help dampen some of the vibration coming from today's power tools. The Viscolas in these gloves helps to reduce tool vibration before it reaches the hand, arm and shoulders. Less vibration means less fatigue and greater comfort. Gloves are made of Lycra .
Plain style is designed for minimum bulk, maximum comfort and affordability.
Leather reinforced palm style is ambidextrous with wrap around padding. The protective layer of Viscolas is applied directly to the tool providing a softer, more yielding handle surface. This design gives full flexibility of hand movement while providing a layer of vibration-reducing elastomer to enhance the body's own natural energy absorbing system. This original Grip Kit contains Viscolas padding, heat shrink covering material for longer wear and an alternative wrap for closed-ended handle tools. Enough material for 2-3 tools.
