One of the most common types of workplace injuries that can keep employees off the job is a hand injury. From severe lacerations to cuts to punctures, accidents like these can be life altering. Hand injuries are also some of the most preventable injuries if personal protection equipment (PPE) is worn consistently and correctly on the job. Protect hands at work at all times with a set of safety gloves from Pyramex Safety’s new-for-2020 line, which includes both cut-resistant dipped gloves and durable leather gloves.
Pyramex’s new dipped gloves are constructed from Polyurethane, Latex or Nitrile, each designed be the safest, most comfortable work gloves available. All new dipped gloves meet ANSI/ISEA 105-2016 cut standards (with ratings from A1-A9 depending on model) as well as CE EN388:2016 (with levels A-F depending on model), which further rates cut.
Two new Polyurethane models in the line that’ll prove useful in a wide range of applications from metal fabrication to manufacturing are the new GL403C and GL404C gloves. Both models incorporate a Polyurethane palm coating and outstanding dexterity for when handling small parts. Both also include a 13-gauge HPPE liner for cut resistance, ample touch sensitivity and low particulate shed. The GL404C comes in a hi-vis orange color for better visibility in low light conditions.
For workers in industries like assembly, bottling and canning, recycling and more, the new GL503 Latex Dipped Glove will keep hands safe while providing a solid grip. The glove features a Latex crinkle palm coating with a 10-gauge polyester liner which offers better traction, as well as tear and abrasion resistance.
Four new Nitrile glove models (GL607C, GL608C, GL609C and GL610C) deliver superior tear, cut, puncture and abrasion resistance for professionals in automotive, manufacturing, maintenance, construction and more. Each glove incorporates a Nitrile palm coating, which provides extra absorption to ensure an outstanding grip in dry, wet and oily conditions. A 13-gauge cut resistant HPPE liner provides excellent cut resistance. GL609C and GL610C also incorporate additional features to ensure there’s a glove available to suit any need including: a reinforced thumb, TPR and touch screen capability (GL610C only).
Pyramex has also added four new glove models to its line of leather safety gloves to include models GL1003W, GL1004W, GL1005W and GL2005K. Built for comfort, safety and function, the new Pyramex leather gloves are guaranteed to be vital safety equipment for those who work in agriculture, woodworking, construction and more. GL1003W and GL1004W models are both made from premium grain cowhide with a gunn cut. The GL1003W features a rubberized safety cuff while the GL1004W has a rubberized gauntlet cut. Crafted from select split shoulder cowhide, the GL1005W leather glove features a full leather back, a wing thumb, rubberized gauntlet cuff and a gunn cut. Rounding out the new leather lineup is the GL2005K glove made from premium grain cowhide with a split leather palm patch, a keystone thumb and gunn cut.
