Ourneedlestick-resistantproductsdomorethansimplypass industry-accepted testing methods; we have put them through real-world applications countless times, with a history of undeniable success.

ir-X® iMpaCT eXoskeleTon™

The most advanced HexArmor® impact resistance comes with all the dexterity, all the comfort, and more protection than offered by any other impact-protective glove on the market. OurproprietaryIR-X® technology shields our gloves with a full back-of-hand exoskeleton, so every joint and knuckle is protected from debilitating blows. In addition to being 42% taller than competitive impact guards, IR-X® smash guards are purpose-built to deflect the force of sudden impacts away from the impact point, rather than transferring force directly to the hand. This unique characteristic is what sets IR-X® safety levels higher than the competition, and its flexibility is what makes the IR-X® Impact Exoskeleton™ more comfortable and more dexterous than any other impact-resistant technology available.

iMPACt testingResiliency of a material can be described as its ability to absorb and release energy elastically, rather than simply transferring energy directly through the material. The lower the tested resiliency value, the more energy is transferred through the material and into the hand during an impact blow.

be SMArT AbouT PPe TeSTingReal-world applications are different from cut tests done in a lab. Even cut tests may vary, using different methods, producing different results. Whenpeoplehearthewords“cutandpuncture-resistant,” most will have a tendency to want to do theirowninformaltesting.Oftentheywillputthegloveon a hard flat surface and run a sharp instrument over thesurfaceoftheglovetotestforcutresistance.Wedo not encourage customers to test in this manner. Although testing with a knife or other sharp object on a hard surface like a table may seem like a good testing method, in reality it is not and has little semblance to real-world applications.

hOw CAn we PROteCt eMPlOYees?

Many injuries can happen with PPE rated in the range below ASTM/ISEA level 5 of 3500+ grams (35 Newtons). As a result, many of our customers have adopted standards in their own organization, specifying a minimum cut number such as 1500 to 3500 grams- level 4 ASTM. Keep in mind the standard is just a guide, the profile of the hazard and actual use conditionsareparamount.Wealwaysencourageconductinga safe test in actual situations; new gloves, used gloves, saturation with oils and fluids, etc.
