Product Overview
In environments where sharp edges and mechanical hazards are part of the daily routine, the A665 Cut E13 Nitrile Glove serves as a critical barrier between the wearer and potential injury. Engineered to meet the demanding Level E cut resistance standard, this glove is designed for professionals who cannot afford to compromise on hand safety. It offers a sophisticated blend of protection and tactile sensitivity, ensuring you can handle intricate tasks with confidence while remaining shielded from abrasions and lacerations.
Key Features
- Level E Cut Resistance: Provides high-level protection against sharp objects and mechanical risks, significantly reducing the likelihood of workplace injuries.
- Nitrile Foam Coating: This palm-dipped finish ensures an excellent grip in both wet and dry conditions, allowing for secure handling of materials.
- Seamless 13-Gauge Liner: The lightweight, knitted construction offers a close fit that enhances dexterity and reduces hand fatigue during extended shifts.
- ANSI Cut Level A6: This certification confirms the glove has been tested to rigorous international standards, providing peace of mind in hazardous environments.
- Breathable Design: The palm-dipped application leaves the back of the hand uncovered, promoting ventilation and thermal comfort.
Design & Performance
The technical excellence of the A665 lies in its material composition. By integrating HPPE, steel fibre, and glass fibre into the knit, the glove achieves remarkable strength without becoming overly bulky or rigid. This lightweight construction allows for natural hand movement, which is often a challenge with high-protection handwear.
The nitrile foam coating is specifically chosen for its resilience and grip. Unlike standard coatings, the foam texture creates a vacuum-like effect when handling smooth or oily surfaces, ensuring that tools and components stay firmly in your grasp. The seamless interior prevents any internal rubbing or pressure points, ensuring comfort for the duration of the working day.
Why No Customisation?
We do not offer customisation, such as printing or embroidery, on this specific product for essential safety reasons. The A665 is a piece of certified Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Any modification to the fabric—such as piercing the fibres with embroidery needles or applying heat for transfers—could compromise the cut-resistant integrity of the HPPE and steel liner or damage the protective nitrile coating. To ensure your safety remains uncompromised, we provide these gloves in their original, certified form.
Use Cases
These gloves are an indispensable asset for tradespeople working in high-risk sectors. They are particularly well-suited for carpenters handling splintered timber, glaziers working with glass sheets, and metalworkers dealing with sharp swarf or burred edges. They are also highly effective for waste management and recycling professionals who frequently encounter unknown sharp hazards.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, ensure a snug fit; a glove that is too loose will reduce your dexterity and could become a snagging hazard. We recommend inspecting your gloves before every shift. If the nitrile coating is peeling or if the inner liner shows signs of fraying or punctures, they should be replaced immediately to maintain the required safety standard.
Caring for your product
To ensure your gloves continue to provide maximum protection, it is important to keep the nitrile surface clean. Accumulated dirt and oils can act as abrasives, prematurely wearing down the coating. We recommend a gentle manual wash with a mild detergent to preserve the grip properties.
Avoid exposing these gloves to high temperatures or direct heat sources during drying. Excessive heat can cause the elastane and elastic components to degrade, leading to a loss of shape and fit. Furthermore, high heat can cause the nitrile foam to become brittle, which negatively impacts both grip and durability.
Never use bleach or strong chemical cleaning agents on these gloves. Harsh chemicals can weaken the HPPE and glass fibres, directly compromising the cut resistance and overall structural integrity of the glove. Always air dry them naturally to maintain the flexibility of the materials.
