Cut Resistant » Vibrastop Kevlar® Anti-vibe glove

Superior's Vibrastop gloves feature formed chloroprene palms that provide a cushiony, comfortable, vibration-absorbing layer of protection against repetitive impact. We’ve combined cut-resistant Kevlar® string-knit gloves with these palms for a glove that can be worn during metal fabrication and related applications involving both cut hazard and hand-arm vibration syndrome, a.k.a. HAVS. HAVS affects the nerves, blood vessels, muscles and joints of the hand, wrist and arm. It can become severely disabling if ignored.

Kevlar® is a registered trademark of E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company.

 
Do more layers equal more protection?
Construction in the palm area of leather gloves leads to some misconceptions. When sizing up gloves in a catalog, it is tempting to believe – based on appearance alone – that a patch palm is going to double your protection. To the uninitiated, palm patches would seem to offer greater protection, as the double palm looks like it would give twice the protection in that area.
The reality with most patch-palm leather glove styles is that the patch exists as a kind of bridge between two pieces of leather to create a full palm. This enables the glove manufacturer to maximize use of the full hide by using up all the smaller leftover pieces.
