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

ANSI Abrasion Level No

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

Leather

Leather is a durable, protective material that provides excellent abrasion resistance, strength, and long-lasting performance in demanding work environments. Its naturally tough yet flexible construction helps protect against everyday wear while allowing comfortable movement and a secure fit, making leather an excellent choice for work gloves, welding PPE, protective apparel, and other safety products where durability, protection, and comfort are important.
