Description
The Portwest CT Cut D18 Nitrile impact glove is an advanced cut-resistant glove specially developed for professionals who need both mechanical protection and excellent tactile sensitivity. This model is highly suitable for precise assembly work and light industrial tasks where there is a risk of cuts and minor impacts. Thanks to its innovative materials, this hand protection offers reliable safety in the workplace without restricting the natural range of motion of your hands.
For which specific tasks and sectors is this cut-resistant glove most suitable?
This cut-resistant glove is pre-eminently suitable for sectors such as electronics, glass processing, automotive, and general manufacturing. Because the liner is completely silicone-free, the glove can be safely used in painting applications and sensitive production processes where silicone contamination must be avoided.
The nitrile foam coating ensures excellent grip on dry as well as wet or slightly oily parts. This makes the model ideal for mechanics and operators who perform precision work and simultaneously need to be protected against mechanical risks.
What do the EN 388 standards and the 18-gauge liner mean for this cut-resistant glove?
The EN 388 standard with rating 3X42DP indicates that this cut-resistant glove offers a high level D cut resistance, combined with certified protection against low-energy impact. The letter P confirms that the glove effectively cushions impact on the back of the hand.
The extremely thin 18-gauge liner ensures maximum finger sensitivity and flexibility, similar to a second skin. This makes the glove unique, as high cut protection is combined here with the preservation of optimal tactile feel and comfort during prolonged wear.
The glove is also washable up to 40 degrees Celsius while maintaining its cut-resistance level and is fully compatible with most mobile touchscreens.
