Tegera tig gloves?

[hooblah]

I want the thinnest possible for maximum feel. They'll be used for mig and tig. They'll only get occasional use. I don't *usually* need to weld anything thicker than 6mm, most of the time it's 2-4mm.

It seems Tegera are quite popular. They're thin enough to ellow some feel, don't break the bank, and they're available in different sizes. Perfect.

What I can't figure out is the difference between the models. It would make sense that 118a are the lightest duty, but is that too light for what I need?

118a:

Not sure of the number but they do a really nice pair in kevlar goat skin. Black.
They are the best I have found for both tig and mig.
If you happen to be a size 10 let me know as I've got a load of them..

@hotponyshoes Are they 132a

The ones I bought were 130A, they seemed the most suitable for TIG in their catalogue.

Haven't had a chance to try them yet.

You want feel then I think Ultima Deerskin, for Tig, are hard to beat.

@hotponyshoes Are they 132a

I think the 132a is part goat, part cow.
I think the ones I have are all goat so a bit softer all round. I'll have a look...

Many thanks.

Odd numbering system. 126a might be the one to go for.

Many gloves come in a range of sizes other than S M L. I think size 8 is medium.
