Ansell has released a new glove designed to boost productivity by workers who are required to handle sharp objects or components.
The liners of the HyFlex 11-630 glove have a yarn structure that contains HPPE (Higher Performance Polyethylene), which reportedly improves performance as it aids impact strength.
According to Ansell, the yarn provides high level cut resistance required by workers involved in controlling, handling and assembly applications where contact with sharp pieces can cause serious cuts.
The lycra in the liners of the glove, as well as the polyurethane coating, reportedly provides excellent flexibility and fit, and a specific formulation of the polyurethane dipping provides a secure grip on dry or slightly oily pieces.
The PU formulation also increases abrasion resistance on the gloves’ work surface to improve grip.
The HyFlex 11-630 glove is compliant to AS/NZS 2161 and has been designed for the automotive and transportation, glass, machinery and equipment, maintenance and metal fabrication industries.
