Cut Resistant Gloves

Cut resistant gloves are specialized safety gloves designed to protect hands from sharp objects, blades, metal edges, glass, and other cutting hazards. Commonly used in manufacturing, metal fabrication, automotive, food processing, warehousing, and material handling operations, cut resistant gloves help reduce laceration injuries while maintaining dexterity and grip.

Common Applications

Cut resistant gloves are widely used in environments including:

  • Metal fabrication and sheet metal handling
  • Manufacturing and industrial assembly
  • Warehousing and material handling
  • Automotive and mechanical work
  • Food processing and meat handling
  • Glass handling and recycling operations
How to Choose Cut Resistant Gloves (Click to expand)

Selecting the right cut resistant glove depends on the level of cut hazard, required dexterity, and environmental conditions. Key factors include cut level rating, material composition, coating type, and grip performance.

  • ANSI Cut Level: Rated from A1 to A9 under ANSI/ISEA 105, with higher levels providing greater resistance to cuts.
  • Material: Common fibers include HPPE, Dyneema, Kevlar, stainless steel blends, and engineered yarns.
  • Coating: Nitrile, polyurethane (PU), latex, and foam coatings improve grip and abrasion resistance.
  • Dexterity: Thinner gloves provide better tactile sensitivity for precision tasks.
  • Additional Protection: Some gloves include impact protection, puncture resistance, or extended cuffs.
