ANSI Cut Level A8

ANSI A8 provides extremely high cut resistance for demanding tasks involving significant exposure to sharp edges and materials. It is commonly suited for heavy metal fabrication, glass handling, metal stamping, recycling, automotive manufacturing, and other high-risk applications where an advanced level of cut protection is required.

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

ANSI Abrasion Level 6

ANSI Abrasion Level 6 provides the highest level of abrasion resistance within the ANSI/ISEA 105 abrasion rating scale. It is designed for demanding applications involving significant and repeated contact with rough or abrasive surfaces, including heavy manufacturing, metal fabrication, construction, material handling, and other high-wear environments.

Understanding ANSI Abrasion Levels

ANSI/ISEA 105 abrasion ratings measure a glove material’s ability to withstand wear caused by repeated rubbing and friction. Ratings range from Level 0 to Level 6, with higher levels indicating greater abrasion resistance and durability. Lower levels are generally suited for lighter-duty tasks, while higher levels are designed for demanding applications involving frequent contact with rough or abrasive surfaces.

ANSI Abrasion Level 0: Minimal abrasion resistance

ANSI Abrasion Level 1: Light abrasion resistance

ANSI Abrasion Level 2: Light-to-moderate abrasion resistance

ANSI Abrasion Level 3: Moderate abrasion resistance

ANSI Abrasion Level 4: High abrasion resistance

ANSI Abrasion Level 5: Very high abrasion resistance

ANSI Abrasion Level 6: Maximum abrasion resistance

ANSI Puncture Level 4

ANSI Puncture Level 4 provides high puncture resistance for demanding tasks involving frequent exposure to materials or objects that may penetrate the glove. It is commonly suited for construction, metal handling, manufacturing, maintenance, and other applications where increased puncture protection is needed.

Understanding ANSI Puncture Levels

ANSI/ISEA 105 puncture ratings measure a glove material’s resistance to penetration from a standardized blunt probe. Ratings range from Level 0 to Level 5, with higher levels indicating greater puncture resistance. Lower levels are suited for lighter-duty applications, while higher levels provide increased protection for demanding tasks involving materials or objects that may puncture the glove.

ANSI Puncture Level 0: Minimal puncture resistance

ANSI Puncture Level 1: Light puncture resistance

ANSI Puncture Level 2: Light-to-moderate puncture resistance

ANSI Puncture Level 3: Moderate puncture resistance

ANSI Puncture Level 4: High puncture resistance

ANSI Puncture Level 5: Maximum puncture resistance

Black HCT MicroFoam Nitrile Palm Coating

Touchscreen-compatible gloves are designed to allow users to operate smartphones, tablets, scanners, touch displays, and other capacitive touchscreen devices without removing their gloves. Conductive materials incorporated into the fingertips or glove construction transfer the electrical properties needed for the screen to recognize touch. Touchscreen compatibility can help improve productivity and convenience in workplaces where employees frequently use digital devices while maintaining hand protection.
