    Question for people here. What other gloves are there that i can use for Nitrogen? With this dumb weather goin on, the Nitrogen feels 100x colder on my hands. It's already 9:08pm here and i can still feel the burn from hours ago today.

    Insulated leather palmed gauntlet gloves similar these work OK.

    You can find actual cryo gloves they use in labs but they aren’t cheap. Look on grainger or just google them from what I’ve seen though I don’t know if they would hold up well. Like I’ve said before I just carry multiple welding gloves when it’s wet/cold out and rotate them if I have multiple deliveries. Put them on the dash with the defrost on to dry out. Also some guys wear a jersey style glove under the welding gloves for more insulation.

    I know when I was at AirProducts they had a lot of Hydrogen come from Geismar Louisiana not sure if that’s close to you. That was their main LHY plant before the new plant in La Porte TX opened up.

    Air Products in New Orleans and convent.
    Airgas in westlake and Geismar
    Linde in Gonzalez
    Messer in Geismar
    Matheson in Westlake

    Everyone loads at airgas in geismar. If in that area.

    And of course the 3rd party carriers that haul for all the private carriers that are listed.

    If I remember correctly Air Products in N.O. is union and teams only.
