JOIN NOW & START SAVING CUT RESISTANT - MEDIUM & LOW PPE - HAND PROTECTION CHOOSING THE CORRECT CUT-RESISTANCE GLOVES? There are several liner fibre families & coatings used in various combinations to create cut-resistant gloves & sleeves. How are cut-resistant gloves measured? The cut-resistant level refers to the capability of a glove and how it withstands the weight (in grams) until it is cut through. Higher levels of cut protection feature increased protection from hazardous objects such as ceramic knives, glass, metal saws, and other items with sharp surfaces. The cut-resistant standard for work gloves features a 9-level scale ranging between A1-to-A9. How are cut-resistant gloves made? There are several different types of cut-resistant gloves which include cut-and-sewn and seamless knitted liners. Gloves are often finished and coated with different variations of latex, nitrile or polyurethane. Cut-resistant gloves are designed to protect the hands from cuts and scrapes, especially when working with sharp tools & materials. How do I choose the right glove solution? There is more to the selection of cut gloves than just choosing the right level of protection. Here are some key questions to consider when evaluating your available options: 1. What level of cut protection is needed? Assess the workplace environment and identify any potential hazards. 2. How much dexterity is needed? Do workers require cushion/padding or more free-range? If a worker requires impact protection on their hands, there may be extra padding on a glove. If a worker needs extra dexterity for working with small components, a thinner glove may be more appropriate. 3. What are the grip considerations? Is this for a dry, oily, or dusty environment? If a worker is working in an oily environment, they may need a coated glove to keep their hands from slipping. 4. What other elements should be considered? Do I need thermal protection, impact protection, touchscreen compatibility or flame resistance? • Aramid • Para-Aramid • DuPont™ Kevlar® • Dyneema® • Dynamax® • Spectra® • Glass Fibre • Basalt • Stainless Steel • Graphene • High Performance Polyethylene Material Courtesy of Ansell 4442C EN388: 2016 ATG® MaxiCut® Oil™ Cut C ¾ Coated Gloves (44-505) • DURAtech® technology for outstanding durability. • LIQUItech® Provides a barrier against oils,greases, and chemicals. • CUTtech® technology for high cut-protection (EN-Cut level 4C). • ERGOtech® Ergonomic design for natural hand movement and comfort. • GRIPtech® For a secure grip. • EN 388:2016 + A1:2018: 4442C.
