S13FGOLX - High-viz Glass-handler’s Gloves, made with Fiberglass/Dyneema® Blend, Thick Latex Palm Coat

Highly cut-resistant glass-handler’s gloves are knit from composite yarn that‘s a blend of fiberglass and Dyneema®. Gloves scored an ASTM cut-resistant rating of 4.
The gloves are knit with Dyneema® which is slick and creates a rolling effect where sharp edges tend to roll across the surface, thereby dissipating cut. Fiberglass enhances this cut protection by dulling sharp edges on contact. The fiberglass strands are wrapped with Dyneema®, which strengthens and supports it for less breakdown under direct force. Palms are coated with thick, specially washed latex for non-slip grip when handling smooth materials like glass where the cut hazard is extreme. The wash process greatly minimizes the risk of silicone contamination. High-visibility orange increases safety in the workplace.

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.
