Magnetic Gloves

Magnetic Gloves contain strong magnets imbedded under the fabric (usually on the back of the hand and/or the tip of the index fingers) that hold-thus providing ready access to-items like screws, nails, bolts, washers, drill bits, small hand tools, etc. The finger seams are reportedly made of breathable, soft material to allow for maximum grip flexibility. Additionally, their foam-padded palms are designed to reduce vibration when using power tools. Besides full-finger, there are no-finger, two-finger, and one-finger types. Magnetic work gloves are available from many vendors under such brand names as Binyatools, Dome-Tour, Hi-Dex, Ironwear, MagnaGrip. Magnetic Finger, RAK, Stylrtop.
