When working with hand-operated vibrating tools for drilling and cutting in e.g. building elements it is important to use anti-vibration gloves to minimize the strain on the hands and arms.

The repeated vibrations can lead to numbness, drowsiness and pain in both fingers, arms and hands. In the worst case, it can cause "white fingers" as it is called when the blood supply to the fingers is temporarily stopped. 

All this can be avoided with anti-vibration gloves.
