PRODEF® Gloves with glass sand filling Level-5 cut-protection, leather

Inconspicuous, lightweight and highly cut resistant - better than any "normal" service glove.

Optimal protection from injuries caused by impact!

The gloves are made of soft quality leather and very well fabricated. From the outside they appear like normal service gloves, but the inside is provided with an HPPE cut resistant fibers and thus provide a maximum of cut resistance!

The leather is soft and comfortable to wear.

On the backhand are four separated fillings with glass sand reaching above the knuckles and giving protection from injuries caused by impact.

The single fillings are closed and separated from each other, so they prevent a shifting of the glass sand.

A hook and loop fastener on the wrist provides a stepless size adjustment an an optimal fixation.

Major features:
• Four seperated fillings with glass sand
• Hook and loop fastener for stepless size adjustment
• Inconspicuous and lightweight
• Inlay made of HPPE cut resistant fibre
• Soft high-quality leather

Technical specifications:
• Upper material: leather
• Lining: HPPE cut resistant fibers
• Colour: black
• Weight: 300 g
• Size: M, L, XL, XXL

Note:
Because all gloves are handmade, partially a slight variance within each pair with respect to materials or workmanship may be possible.
What are HPPE cut resistant fibers?
HPPE is compared with conventional aramid fibers (which are also used for the manufacture of protective clothing) 40 times higher tensile strength. With respect to carbon fiber or glass fiber tensile strength 60 times and 15 times more tensile strength than steel. Due to its UV stability, low ductility and high cut resistance it offers ideal conditions for processing in protective articles. Therefore, it is used among others in the manufacture of helmets, shields / clothing and armor.

Level-5, what is that?
To determine the cut resistance of a fabric, a razor blade is used to cut into the material. The more pressure can be applied to the razor blade without damaging the fabric, the higher the cut resistance: a small cut resistance has a level of 1, the highest possible level is 5.
