The Cordova 3716 Caliber glove is a high-performance, cut-resistant safety glove designed for dexterity and reliable grip in demanding tasks. It features a white 13-gauge HPPE shell with a gray polyurethane (PU) palm coating that enhances durability and tactile control, while the blue elastic wrist helps secure the fit. HPPE fibers are known for exceptional tensile strength relative to weight, contributing to lightweight comfort without compromising protection. The product is specified to provide ANSI Cut Level A2 protection, indicating a measured level of cut resistance suitable for many exterior handling and material processing applications.

The glove’s construction prioritizes hand dexterity and abrasion resistance, leveraging 13-gauge HPPE yarns and a PU-coated palm to balance grip and resistance to wear. The combination of HPPE and PU coating is intended to deliver a grasping surface with improved durability in oily or wet conditions, while still allowing precise manipulation of small parts or tools. The 13-gauge knit offers a snug fit that supports tactile feedback, essential for tasks requiring fine motor control.

Recommended use includes light to moderate cutting and handling tasks where grip, finger dexterity, and abrasion resistance are important. Users should consider compatibility with oils, solvents, and surfaces, as PU coatings can influence grip characteristics in different environments. The product lists a case quantity of 144 pairs and a per-pair packaging size, which is useful for inventory planning and bulk procurement. The Cordova Caliber line is known for glove constructions that emphasize balance between protection and manual performance, making these gloves suitable for assembly, inspection, and light fabrication workflows where cut resistance is a consideration.

ANSI Cut Level A2

ANSI A2 provides light cut resistance for tasks with limited exposure to sharp edges. It is commonly suited for general material handling, assembly, packaging, warehouse operations, maintenance, and other applications where light 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

HPPE

HPPE is an excellent choice for PPE that requires high levels of cut protection without sacrificing comfort or dexterity. Its high-strength, lightweight fibers provide excellent resistance to cuts and abrasion while remaining flexible and comfortable for extended wear. HPPE is especially well suited for cut-resistant gloves and sleeves used in manufacturing, metal handling, glass handling, assembly, and other applications where workers need dependable protection while maintaining precise hand movement.
