Impact Resistant Type Gloves
Impact Resistant Gloves- Built to Take the Hit
When you work around heavy machinery, falling objects, or crushing hazards — regular gloves aren't enough. Impact resistant gloves add a hard layer of protection across the back of the hand where regular gloves leave you exposed.
Part of our full range of Industrial Work Gloves, impact gloves are built for the jobs where a bad grip or a wrong move can mean a serious hand injury.
What Makes a Glove Impact Resistant?
Impact resistant gloves use TPR — thermoplastic rubber — molded panels on the back of the hand and fingers. When something strikes or crushes, the TPR absorbs and disperses the force before it reaches your hand.
Better models also combine impact protection with cut resistance in a single glove — so you don't have to choose between hazards. For cut-only environments, our Cut Resistant Gloves and Sleeves are the right step up. For abrasion-heavy tasks without crush risk, Leather Work Gloves remain a proven alternative.
Who Needs Impact Resistant Gloves?
These gloves are standard PPE for workers who face crush, pinch, and strike hazards daily:
Oil & gas — pipe handling, drill floor operations, and rigging
Construction — rebar tying, concrete work, and heavy material handling
Heavy manufacturing — press operations, stamping, and metal fabrication
Mining and utilities — equipment operation in high-risk environments
Welding and fabrication — heavy prep work around machinery
Types of Impact Resistant Gloves
Impact + Cut Resistant Gloves The most popular category. A cut-resistant liner with TPR impact padding — one glove handles two of the most common hand hazards on the same job site. Ideal for oil & gas and construction.
Mechanics Impact Gloves Form-fitting with padded knuckle and finger protection. Designed for tight spaces and tool use. Good for equipment maintenance, automotive, and assembly work.
Heavy-Duty Impact Gloves Maximum padding across the full back of hand and fingers. Built for the heaviest industrial tasks — pipe work, rigging, and large equipment operation.
