How Glove Weight Affects Cost and Durability
Use pair weight to compare material usage, construction and target performance.
Why this topic matters
Glove pair weight changes with the liner, coating coverage, glove size and overall construction. Pricing also changes with packing and order quantity.
What to include in the RFQ
Do not treat gram weight alone as a performance standard. Confirm what the weight includes, how it is measured, which size it refers to and whether the liner or coating changed between quoted tiers.
- Product family and reference photo
- Coating material and finish
- Coverage / dip level
- Size range and target quantity
- Logo and packing requirement
- Required test standard, if applicable
Confirm before placing the order
Confirm the current sample, liner, gauge, size-specific weight, packing, MOQ, lead time and any market-required test documentation before final approval.
