Kevlar Cut-Resistant Work Gloves - ANSI A2
HandFortress Kevlar cut-resistant work gloves feature a 7-gauge, 100% Kevlar machine-knit shell for industrial handling tasks. The confirmed manufacturer specification lists ANSI/ISEA 105-2016 Cut Level A2 with a test result of 889 grams. ASA SKU S3065HF is offered in Small through XL, with dozen packaging for crew and facility purchasing.
The plain knit construction provides an uncoated handling surface without PVC dots or a leather palm. Choose this style for tasks where its documented cut performance and fit meet the workplace assessment. These gloves are cut-resistant, not cut-proof; the rating does not establish protection against every sharp object.

Choosing the Appropriate Cut Protection
A2 is a laboratory cut classification, not blanket approval for sheet metal, glass, or recycling work. Sharpness, pressure, contact duration, and handling technique affect exposure. Select a different glove when the assessed task requires greater cut performance, a coated grip, or additional protection.
No finished-glove heat, needle-puncture, chemical, or electrical rating is established by this specification. Kevlar fiber properties alone do not verify protection for hot-material handling or welding. Check fit and tool control before issuing gloves across a crew.
For repeat purchases, specify each required size and confirm quantities against your receiving plan. If the task calls for a leather working surface, compare our Kevlar leather palm gloves and evaluate their specifications separately before adding them to an existing documented workplace hand-protection program.
OSHA Hand-Protection Requirements
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.138 requires hand protection selected according to performance, tasks, working conditions, duration, and hazards. OSHA 1910.132 addresses hazard assessment, fit, training, and damaged PPE. These employer requirements do not constitute product approval.
Care and Manufacturer Documentation
Inspect the knit for holes, thinning, and damage before use. Replace compromised gloves and follow workplace procedures for contamination. The manufacturer specifies washing with commercial detergent in water no hotter than 50°C/122°F, followed by air-drying or tumble-drying without heat.
