Product Overview
The Cut D13 Nitrile Viz-Tex Cold Glove is a sophisticated solution for professionals operating in environments where both mechanical hazards and low temperatures are a constant factor. Balancing high-level cut resistance with thermal insulation, this glove ensures that hand protection does not come at the cost of comfort or efficiency during the winter months. By combining modern materials with a functional twin-layer design, this glove provides the security required for high-risk tasks without the bulk often associated with thermal hand protection.
Key Features
- High-Risk Cut Protection: The HPPE and glass fibre construction provides a Cut D rating, offering significant resistance against sharp edges and blades during manual handling.
- Thermal Heat Retention: An integrated acrylic thermal layer effectively traps air to keep hands warm in freezing conditions, ensuring comfort during long shifts.
- High-Visibility Viz-Tex Design: The bright orange colourway enhances hand visibility, a critical safety feature when working in low-light environments or around moving machinery.
- Nitrile Coating: The black nitrile palm coating provides excellent grip and durability, allowing for a secure hold on tools even in damp or oily conditions.
Design & Performance
Engineered with a blend of HPPE, glass fibre, and polyester, the outer shell of these gloves is designed for mechanical endurance. The lightweight fabric remains flexible, allowing for the precise finger movement required for carpentry and detailed assembly work. The twin-layer design is particularly effective, as it not only wards off the cold but also provides a level of heat protection, making it a versatile choice for varied industrial applications. The elasticated cuff ensures a secure fit around the wrist, preventing cold draughts or debris from entering the glove.
Why No Customisation?
As a specialist piece of Hand Protection and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), we do not offer customisation on these gloves. Modifying the glove through embroidery or heat-applied transfers could compromise the structural integrity of the cut-resistant fibres or damage the thermal lining. To ensure the product performs to its tested safety standards and provides the advertised level of protection, we supply these items as-is.
Use Cases
These gloves are ideally suited for carpenters, site labourers, and logistics professionals who handle sharp materials in outdoor or unheated environments. They are also a practical choice for cold storage workers who require mechanical cut protection alongside thermal insulation to maintain productivity in sub-zero temperatures.
Why MyWorkwear
Established in 1976, MyWorkwear has decades of experience in providing reliable safety solutions from our base in Telford. We understand that in demanding trades, the quality of your PPE is non-negotiable. We select products that meet rigorous standards to ensure your team remains protected and your business stays compliant.
Practical Advice
For maximum effectiveness, ensure you select the correct size to maintain full dexterity. A glove that is too large can impair your grip and become a snagging hazard, while a glove that is too small may restrict circulation, which can lead to hands feeling colder more quickly. Given the internal thermal layer, there is usually no need for additional liners with this product.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-risk cut protection and thermal properties of these gloves, regular inspection is essential. Before every use, check the surface for signs of excessive wear, fraying of the HPPE fibres, or degradation of the nitrile coating. Damaged gloves must be replaced immediately to ensure the safety of the wearer.
Keep the gloves away from harsh chemicals or solvents that could break down the nitrile grip. When the gloves are not in use, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the elasticity of the cuff and the integrity of the thermal lining.
