These gloves provide ideal solutions for industries where precision and protection must coexist:
■ Electronics and Semiconductor Manufacturing: Handling circuit boards, micro-components, and sensitive devices where both cut protection and contamination control are critical
■ Medical Device Assembly: Working with sharp components and sterile products in controlled environments
■ Precision Engineering and Optics: Assembling delicate mechanisms and optical components requiring clean handling
■ Automotive Electronics: Installing sensitive electronic systems and components in vehicle manufacturing
■ Aerospace Component Assembly: Working with critical systems where both worker safety and component protection are essential
An outstanding balance of cut resistance performance and cleanroom compatibility are all incorporated into the 13-Needle HPPE Cut-Resistant Nitrile Smooth Gloves. The precision-based industries require the highest level of precision and the innovative 13-gauge ultra-fine gauge knit HPPE material provides the necessary resistance to cutting injuries at ANSI Cut Level A3 level, combined with excellent dexterity. The smooth nitrile coating offers high friction on dry and lightly oily surfaces without the creation of particulate contamination.
These gloves offer the best of both worlds – cut resistance and cleanliness. Perfect for electronics manufacturing, precision assembly and cleanroom applications, they will give you a balance of comfort, dexterity and safety. A breathable construction provides all-day comfort and a smooth surface means no snagging on components. Use these gloves where safety and quality of the product is equally important and you will achieve maximum productivity.
Hand protection for manufacturing, precision assembly Hand protection for many of today’s advanced manufacturing and precision assembly operations provides two separate levels of protection. Firstly, protection for the hands to prevent cuts. Secondly, and equally important, protection for the sensitive products to prevent contamination from hand residues, particularly those provided by the hand entering finger protection such as those afforded by coated fingers of gloves that constantly shed dust particles and tend to sacrifice dexterity for protection. The 13-Needle HPPE Cut-Resistant Nitrile Smooth Gloves is a high specification product that brings cut resistance with an added feature of being Clean Room Compatible and thus delivers protection for hands and products, all in a single, advanced product design.
The gloves feature a new design in order to provide optimal protection in an unobtrusive way:
The Ultra-Fine 13-Gauge High cut resistance is achieved with one of the finest knits available in industrial gloves and creates a very dense layer of protection. With hundreds of threads per square inch, this knit offers protection well beyond the capacity of most cut-resistant gloves while still maintaining a very thin profile. Free from bulk and restriction, these products enable the most precise and delicate of tasks to be performed with total confidence in glove protection.
High-Performance Polyethylene (HPPE) Fiber Matrix: Woven throughout the knit structure are HPPE fibers, chosen for their exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and inherent cut resistance. These engineered fibers create a protective network that provides reliable defense against cuts, slashes, and abrasions, typically achieving ANSI Cut Level A3 protection. The HPPE fibers maintain remarkable flexibility, ensuring that protection never comes at the expense of natural hand movement or comfort.
The special smooth nitrile coating on these gloves provides excellent contamination-free performance in many applications:
Abrasive particles, textured coatings and certain polymers can break down and release particles which can then contaminate your working area and product. The smooth surface of the nitrile does not generate these particles, which are often extremely small, and therefore make Latex or Nitrile gloves suitable for cleanroom environments and for applications such as electronics manufacturing and precision assembly where any contamination could have an impact on production yields and product quality.
Superior Grip Characteristics: The smooth nitrile coating provides consistent, reliable grip on dry and slightly oily surfaces through molecular attraction rather than mechanical friction. This ensures secure handling of small components, tools, and delicate materials without the risk of leaving residue or marks on sensitive surfaces.
These Nitrile gloves have an excellent resistance to chemicals due to their inherent resistance to oils, greases and a wide range of chemicals. As a result, their protective capabilities are retained, even in the event of accidental exposure to chemicals. A wide range of industrial processes are carried out in an environment where unintended exposure to chemicals is likely to occur.
These gloves are meticulously engineered to support extended wear in precision-focused environments:
In addition to ESD safety, the unique design of Enhanced Tactile Sensitivity grips is a valuable benefit to all workers handling sensitive components on the production line. The ultra-fine 13-gauge stock, used in their manufacture, ensures that the extremely fine texture of the smooth finish is not compromised, retaining tactility at its best for optimal dexterity for handling small screws, micro-components and delicate assemblies.
The fabric of the C7 Isotoner Multi Purpose Gloves features a unique knit construction that allows for excellent airflow and moisture removal, so the skin stays cool and dry for long periods of time. This breathable fabric helps to eliminate hot spots and excessive sweat. Long periods of work can be exhausting, and the last thing you need is additional sweat and temperature irritation caused by restrictive glove materials. Isotoner Multi Purpose Gloves are engineered with maximum dexterity in mind, so you can work efficiently without sacrificing comfort.
Ergonomic Fit The pre-curved design of the gloves matches the natural resting position of the hand, helping to reduce hand strain caused by repetitive tasks. The exact fit of the fingers eliminates bunching of the material and helps to retain dexterity, while allowing the worker to continue working efficiently and safely.
From an operational perspective, these gloves deliver significant value through multiple dimensions:
The low particulate, smooth surface of the Air Filter Prevents damage to sensitive products. Offers a level of protection for more complex and valuable products. Reduces potential for rework. Reduces potential for scrap product. Helps to maintain product quality.
Mechanical dexterity and fine motor control for increased process efficiency As a result of improved mechanical dexterity and fine motor control, workers are able to accomplish a variety of complex hand movements with greater ease and efficiency, and therefore maintain high levels of productivity in delicate and intricate processing operations.
Less Risk of Contamination The cleanroom-compatible design of the machines guarantees that the highest level of environmental control is maintained at all times, thereby supporting all applicable statutory provisions, as well as company own standards and certifications.
Hard coating applied to the inner surface: Cost-Effective Protection The premium hard coating, that is applied to the inner surface of the filter cartridge, provides a long-lasting lifespan and a wide range of applications that enables the efficient management of inventory levels and easy ordering.
Improve your precision operations with the most appropriate protection solution – which at the same time, maintains a high level of sensitivity for your working tasks. The 13-Needle HPPE Cut-Resistant Nitrile Smooth Gloves enable you to secure a balance between workplace safety and product integrity in your precision manufacturing processes.
