Product Overview
The CS Cut D21 Nitrile Glove is a sophisticated piece of hand protection designed for those who require the highest levels of precision without compromising on safety. Achieving a Cut Level D rating, these gloves offer significant resistance against sharp edges and mechanical risks. What sets this glove apart is the exceptionally fine 21-gauge liner; it provides a 'second skin' feel that allows for intricate tasks that would be impossible in bulkier safety gloves.
Key Features
- Cut Level D Protection: This ensures a high degree of safety against lacerations, making them suitable for handling sharp materials or working in high-risk environments.
- 21-Gauge Liner: The ultra-fine knit provides maximum dexterity and tactile sensitivity, allowing the wearer to feel small components and perform delicate adjustments with ease.
- Nitrile Foam Coating: This coating delivers exceptional grip in both dry and slightly oily conditions, while also providing a robust barrier against abrasion.
- Reinforced Thumb Crotch: By strengthening this high-wear area, the lifespan of the glove is significantly extended, providing better value for money and consistent protection.
- Touchscreen Compatibility: Integrated functionality allows for the use of smartphones and tablets without removing the gloves, maintaining safety and thermal comfort throughout the working day.
Design & Performance
The construction of the A648 involves a complex blend of HPPE, Steel, Polyester, Nylon, and Elastane. This combination creates a fabric that is incredibly strong yet remarkably lightweight and flexible. The inclusion of steel fibres within the knit provides the necessary cut resistance, while the elastane ensures the glove contours perfectly to the hand.
The nitrile foam coating is breathable, reducing perspiration and keeping hands cooler during extended use. The grey and black colour scheme is practical for industrial environments, helping to hide dirt and grease, thereby maintaining a professional appearance for longer.
Why No Customisation?
We do not offer customisation, such as printing or embroidery, on this specific product because it is a piece of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Any modification to the fabric, such as piercing the knit with embroidery needles or applying heat-pressed transfers, could compromise the structural integrity of the Cut Level D protection. To ensure your safety remains at the certified standard, these gloves are supplied in their original, tested form.
Use Cases
These gloves are ideally suited for professionals who need to balance protection with precision. They are highly recommended for carpenters, glass handlers, and those working in metal fabrication or small parts assembly. The touchscreen compatibility also makes them an excellent choice for site managers or technicians who frequently interact with digital diagnostic equipment.

Practical Advice
To ensure maximum protection and dexterity, it is vital to select the correct size. A glove that is too large will reduce your grip and tactile sensitivity, while one that is too small may cause hand fatigue and put unnecessary stress on the seams. For those working in colder environments, these gloves are slim enough to be worn under a larger gauntlet if temporary additional thermal protection is required.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-performance standards of the Cut Level D protection and the integrity of the nitrile coating, proper maintenance is essential.
We recommend avoiding the use of bleach or harsh chemical detergents. Bleaching agents can degrade the HPPE and steel fibres, which would significantly reduce the cut resistance and leave your hands vulnerable to injury.
When cleaning, use a mild detergent and allow the gloves to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Tumble drying or ironing should be strictly avoided, as high temperatures can melt the nitrile foam coating and the elastane fibres, causing the glove to lose its shape and grip properties.
