The Cordova 3734TPR Machinist glove is a high-performance cut-resistant hand protection option designed for demanding hands-on work. It features a 13-gauge HPPE/Glass fiber shell with a salt-and-pepper appearance and a nitrile palm coating in orange. This construction pairs enhanced cut resistance with a tactile, flexible grip suitable for precision tasks in harsh environments. The back of the hand is protected by a thermoplastic rubber (TPR) impact shield, and the glove includes a reinforced thumb crotch to improve durability in high-wear areas. It is rated at ANSI/ISEA 105-2016 Cut Level A4 and CE/EN 4543, indicating strong protection for tasks that pose laceration risk while still allowing dexterity for intricate work.

The combination of HPPE and glass fibers contributes to a balance of cut resistance and comfort, while the nitrile coating on the palm provides a secure grip in oily or wet conditions and resists abrasion. The salt-and-pepper fiber blend helps distinguish its construction from standard HPPE-only gloves, and the orange palm improves visibility in busy work zones. This glove is suitable for applications such as construction, framing, demolition, and oil & gas tasks where cut resistance and grip are important, and where back-of-hand protection is advantageous.

For practical use, consider sizing and packaging details: each pair is sized individually and sold in cases of 72 pairs. The gloves are designed for reuse in industrial settings and support custom printing if branding is required. As with all PPE, inspect the glove for wear, especially at the fingertips and thumb crotch, and replace if signs of cracking, thinning, or coating deterioration appear. Compatibility with tools and workflows should be evaluated to ensure the nitrile palm coating maintains adequate grip under expected conditions.

ANSI Cut Level A4

ANSI A4 provides medium cut resistance for tasks involving regular exposure to sharp edges and materials. It is commonly suited for manufacturing, automotive assembly, sheet metal handling, construction, maintenance, and material handling applications where increased cut protection and good dexterity are needed.

Understanding ANSI Cut Levels

ANSI/ISEA 105 cut ratings range from A1 to A9. Higher ratings indicate greater cut resistance:

A1–A2: Light cut protection

A3–A4: Light-to-medium cut protection

A5–A6: Medium-to-high cut protection

A7–A8: High cut protection

A9: Maximum cut protection

Nitrile

Nitrile is a durable glove coating that provides excellent abrasion and puncture resistance along with reliable grip in dry and oily conditions. It also offers resistance to many oils, greases, and common workplace chemicals while maintaining good flexibility and dexterity. Nitrile coated gloves are commonly used in manufacturing, automotive, maintenance, assembly, warehousing, and material handling applications where durability and dependable hand protection are important.
