Product Overview
The Cut D13 Nitrile Green Long Cuff Glove is engineered for professionals who require a high degree of protection without sacrificing manual dexterity. These gloves achieve a Cut Level D rating, providing a robust barrier against sharp edges and abrasive materials. The striking green liner is not merely for aesthetics; it serves as a visual indicator of the safety level, allowing for easy compliance checks across a busy site. The inclusion of a nitrile foam coating ensures that the wearer maintains control even in challenging environments where grip is paramount.
Key Features
- Level D Cut Resistance: Utilising a sophisticated blend of HPPE and steel fibre, these gloves offer significant protection against mechanical risks and sharp objects, ensuring safety in high-risk handling tasks.
- Nitrile Foam Coating: The palm-dipped nitrile foam provides an enhanced grip in both dry and slightly oily conditions, reducing the physical strain required to hold tools and materials.
- Extended 10cm Cuff: The elongated cuff provides essential shielding for the wrist and lower forearm, protecting a vulnerable area that is often left exposed by standard-length safety gloves.
- High-Visibility Liner: The bright green colour ensures that workers are easily seen and that safety supervisors can confirm the correct protective equipment is being used from a distance.
Design & Performance
The construction of the A632 involves a technical blend of materials including HPPE, steel fibre, and polyester. This results in a lightweight yet exceptionally sturdy fabric that conforms to the hand's natural contours. The addition of elastane and elastic within the weave ensures the glove remains flexible, preventing hand fatigue during extended shifts. The nitrile foam dipping is specifically formulated to be resilient, allowing for excellent tactile feedback while maintaining a durable barrier against wear and tear. Despite the heavy-duty protection, the materials remain breathable for increased comfort.
Why No Customisation?
As these gloves are categorised as high-specification Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) intended for cut resistance, we do not offer customisation or branding on this item. Applying embroidery or heat-applied prints could potentially compromise the structural integrity of the cut-resistant fibres or interfere with the protective nitrile coating. To ensure the safety certifications remain valid and the wearer is fully protected, these gloves are sold strictly as-is.
Use Cases
These gloves are ideally suited for environments where sharp materials are handled frequently. This includes metal fabrication, glass handling, and complex assembly tasks within the automotive or aerospace industries. They are also a preferred choice for carpenters and tradespeople who require a combination of tactile sensitivity and high-level protection for both the hands and the wrists.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, ensure the 10cm cuff sits flat against the forearm to prevent debris or sparks from entering the glove. It is advisable to inspect the gloves before every shift for any signs of snags or wear in the nitrile coating. If you are working in particularly cold environments, ensure that any layering does not interfere with the secure fit of the cuff.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-performance cut resistance and grip of your gloves, it is essential to keep them free from heavy contamination. Accumulated oils, grease, and grit can degrade the nitrile coating over time, which may eventually reduce the effectiveness of your grip and the flexibility of the glove.
We recommend storing these gloves in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, as UV exposure can affect the integrity of the synthetic fibres. Avoid exposing the gloves to high heat sources or harsh chemical solvents, as these can cause the nitrile foam to become brittle and the elastic components to lose their shape, ultimately shortening the lifespan of the product.
