So, no matter the high-level cutting threats present in your workplace, you can rest assured that your workers’ hands are afforded the best protection available.

Of course, protection against cuts is not the only factor to consider when choosing a safety glove for your workplace. Your chosen glove should also ensure ongoing comfort and performance so that hands are not put at risk. Our NitreGrip Technology is a new, advanced surface treatment that provides an assured grip when working in dry, wet, or even oily conditions. This ground-breaking technology reduces the force needed to grip, thus reducing hand fatigue and ensuring an effortless hold on parts and materials in some of the more challenging conditions your workplace presents.

The light weight, seamless 13 gauge nylon liner of our Nitrex 340FCD is constructed with HPPE, encapsulated glass fibre, and steel to provide the maximum level of cut protection whilst remaining breathable, comfortable, and ensuring ongoing comfort throughout the day.
The 340FCD’s flexible dual nitrile coating comprises a fully coated, flat nitrile base layer that affords liquid resistance to the wearer and full 360° hand protection. Meanwhile, the sandy nitrile palm coating is resistant to both oils and grease and acts as a physical barrier against these and other liquids. In addition, the comfortable and flexible sandy nitrile coating helps to deliver dexterity to the wearer, which assists in performing more precise tasks. To further enhance comfort and protection, the elasticated wrist ensures a secure fit and keeps hands free from dust ingress.

Some of the applications these nitrile dipped gloves are suited to include:

Construction: Conditions in the construction industry can be unpredictable, which means you need a high performance glove with high cut protection and exceptional grip, even in the wet or when handling oily parts. Nitrex 340FCD is an ideal choice of glove for the range of different construction activities undertaken from demolition to bricklaying to pipe laying to operating heavy equipment.

Bottling: For industrial bottling applications, a cut resistant glove is non-negotiable. Regular contact with glass bottles and potentially dangerous bottling machinery means the risk of cuts, tears, and abrasions. Furthermore, bottling applications can involve the added complication of wet or greasy material handling, which can result in compromised grip if using an inappropriate glove. Nitrex 340FCD provides an assured grip in dry, wet, and even oily conditions, as well as maximum cut protection (level F) against glass, metals, and other sharp or abrasive objects.

Waste handling: Handling of waste can present several risks to workers, including cuts from sharp objects and tear and abrasion hazards from a variety of materials. For an outstanding grip in all conditions – including wet and oily environments – and the maximum cut protection rating afforded to any safety glove, look no further than Nitrex 340FCD.
