High-Visibility Cut-Resistant Gloves
Cordova ION-HV 3704 gloves combine a bright yellow, 13-gauge HPPE/glass/synthetic fiber shell with yellow polyurethane palm coating. The manufacturer specification sheet lists ANSI A4 cut resistance. ASA sells this model by the pair under SKU S3704HF for assessed material-handling tasks.
Key Features
- Yellow shell and coating provide visual contrast.
- Blended knit construction provides tested cut resistance.
- PU palm adds a coated handling surface.
- Uncoated knit back leaves part of the shell exposed.
Common Uses and Applications
Evaluate for metal fabrication, glass handling, recycling and assembly. Match the glove to edge severity, handling force and task conditions. An industry name alone does not establish adequate protection.
Manufacturer-Listed Safety Standards
The linked Cordova specification sheet identifies ANSI/ISEA 105-2016 Cut Level A4. Cut resistance is not cut-proof protection and does not eliminate injury risk. Use the documented classification when comparing gloves tested under the same standard.
Cordova’s product page lists EN 388: 4543: abrasion 4, circular-blade cut 5, tear 4 and puncture 3. EN cut Level 5 does not mean ANSI A5. These results do not establish hypodermic-needle protection, electrical insulation or chemical resistance.
Applicable OSHA Requirements
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.138 requires hand protection selected for identified hazards, performance, tasks, conditions and exposure duration. OSHA 1910.132(d) requires hazard assessment and properly fitting PPE. These employer duties are not OSHA product certification.
Visibility, Grip and Fit
Bright yellow can help distinguish hand position, but visibility depends on lighting, surroundings and contamination. These gloves do not replace required high-visibility apparel or worksite lighting. No ANSI/ISEA 107 garment classification is claimed.
Test grip with actual components; oil, moisture and wear can change handling. The palm coating does not make the complete glove waterproof. Choose a size that permits finger movement without loose material interfering with control, and follow glove restrictions around rotating equipment.
Trial fit through the full handling motion before issuing gloves across a crew. Check that workers can grasp, release and reposition parts without adjusting the glove or compromising their control.
Inspection and Care
Check the shell, coating and seams before use. Replace damaged gloves. Cordova specifies washing with commercial laundry detergent at no more than 50°C/122°F, then air drying or tumble drying without heat. Compare other cut-resistant gloves when the task requires different coverage or protection.
