Industrial Safety Gloves Features
The ProFlex® 7041 Hi-Vis Nitrile-Coated Level 4 Cut-Resistant Gloves are designed with two new technologies to create the most comfortable, breathable and best gripping ANSI cut level 4 gloves on the market.
This knit work glove is made with high-performance polyethylene (HPPE) fibres for superior A4 cut protection. HPPE doesn’t include steel or glass, often used in other anti-cut safety gloves, which can cause irritation. The WSX™ dip combined with TenaLux™ yarn makes these palm-coated industrial gloves cool to the touch with 360 degrees of breathability. They are lighter weight than traditional A4 cut-resistant gloves and provide increased visibility with the hi-vis lime on the backside of the hand.
Plus, the liquid-resistant special coating absorbs and wicks moisture from the surface, making these firm-grip gloves stand out, especially in wet-oily and wet conditions. The water-based polyurethane (PU) coating combined with nitrile dip also supports maximum dexterity and significantly relieves hand fatigue while ensuring durability.
The ProFlex® Level 4 Cut-Resistant Gloves are best for workers in construction, assembly, fabrication, pulp & paper, service technicians or industrial workers handling sheet metal or other sharp edge materials.

Improve Personal Safety with High-Quality Industrial Gloves
In many work situations, certain dangers lurk, so much so that contact with the skin can cause injury. To protect against sharp objects and mitigate risks that might lead to infections and contaminations, it is essential to take the necessary steps to ensure personal safety. Furthermore, workers in heavy-duty industrial settings are also prone to hand injuries. With that in mind, the next course of action is to provide your workers with the correct personal protection equipment, complete with cut-resistant safety gloves to protect the hands.
Why Use Industrial Safety Gloves?
Industrial safety gloves are essential personal protective equipment (PPE) designed to safeguard workers’ hands from a wide range of workplace hazards. What’s more, they enable workers to carry out potentially dangerous tasks and increase work efficiency while having safety precautions in place. Additionally, selecting the correct safety gloves and ensuring they are worn properly can help prevent various hand injuries, including:
- Puncture wounds
- Cuts and scrapes
- Burns from heat or chemicals
- Irritation or absorption of hazardous substances
- Injuries from extreme temperatures
- Exposure to biological agents
- Loss of fingers, nails, or skin
- Needle stick injuries
What to Consider When Choosing Industrial Safety Gloves
Selecting the appropriate industrial safety gloves is crucial for protecting your workers’ hands while ensuring their productivity. To make informed decisions, consider these factors:
- Task-Specific Needs: Identify the specific hazards your workers face and choose the appropriate safety gloves for the job. Do they handle sharp objects, chemicals, or extreme temperatures?
- Material Handling: Consider the types of materials handled. Do workers need gloves with enhanced grip for oily or wet surfaces?
- Dexterity Requirements: How much dexterity is needed for the task? Note that some industrial gloves prioritise flexibility and tactile sensitivity, while others offer more robust protection.
- Exposure Level: Assess the frequency and duration of exposure to hazards to help you choose gloves with appropriate durability and protective features.
- Comfort and Fit: Ensure the safety gloves fit properly and are comfortable for extended wear. Remember, ill-fitting gloves can reduce productivity and efficiency while increasing the risk of accidents.
