Who Should Be Using Ardant Cut Resistant Gloves?
Anyone working with or around sharp material needs to protect themselves accordingly. Due to their incredible cut-resistance, abrasion and tearing ratings, Ardant 5D Gloves have huge scope for professional and personal use. Please see below for a list of suitable and suggested environments and professions:
Incredible Cut Resistance
The EN 388 cut resistance test uses a single sharp implement to repeatedly pressure a glove in order to determine the amount of force required to cause visible and functional damage. Cut resistance Level D indicates that Ardant 5D Gloves can withstand between 15 and 21.9 newtons of force before becoming damaged.
What Does a Nitrile Coating Do?
Nitrile is a flexible coating that excels in oily, damp and wet conditions. It uses tiny air bubbles injected during the manufacturing process to trap oil, grease, grime and dirt. Nitrile is used as a protective coating in gloves as it matches the flexibility and pliability of latex without the issues regarding allergies and skin conditions.
