Kevlar Cut-Resistant Gloves with Leather Palm
HandFortress Kevlar cut-resistant gloves combine a 7-gauge Kevlar knit shell with a split cowhide leather palm sewn with Kevlar thread. The matching manufacturer model carries ANSI Cut Level A3 with a reported test result of 1,283 grams. ASA SKU 3090HF is offered in Small through XL and sold by the dozen for crew and facility purchasing.
The leather palm adds a working surface for handling rough materials while retaining a knit shell across the hand. These gloves are intended for industrial tasks selected through hazard assessment, including fabrication, assembly, maintenance, and material handling. Cut resistance does not mean cut-proof protection.
Quick Buying Details
Key Features
- Kevlar knit shell with documented A3 cut resistance.
- Split cowhide palm for rough-surface handling.
- Palm sewn with Kevlar thread.
- Dozen packaging for repeat PPE orders.
Common Uses and Applications
- Assessed sheet metal and fabricated-parts handling.
- Automotive assembly and industrial production.
- Construction materials and warehouse handling.
- Equipment repair and facility maintenance.
- Glass handling where the assessed cut hazard matches performance.
For repeat purchases, specify SKU 3090HF, each required size, and the number of dozens. Keep size quantities separate on purchase orders so receiving staff can check the shipment against individual crew requirements and replacement needs.
Understanding the Cut Rating
The manufacturer lists ANSI A3 and EN 388: 434X, including a European blade-cut level of 3. These belong to different classification systems; the shared number does not make the tests equivalent. Use the documented performance alongside the actual task, edge condition, contact pressure, and exposure duration.
No verified contact-heat temperature, arc rating, or needle-puncture rating was found. Kevlar fiber properties alone do not establish finished-glove protection against hot materials. Do not select this glove for welding, chemical exposure, or electrical shock protection on that basis.
OSHA Hand-Protection Requirements
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.138 requires task-specific hand-protection selection based on performance, working conditions, duration, and hazards. OSHA 1910.132 addresses hazard assessment, fit, training, and damaged PPE. These requirements are employer obligations, not product approvals.
Selection, Inspection, and Documentation
Compared with an uncoated knit glove, this style adds a leather working palm. Check fit and tool control before standardizing a crew. Inspect the knit, palm, and seams before use; replace gloves with holes, separating leather, or damaged stitching.
FAQ
- What is the cut level? ANSI A3, with a manufacturer-reported result of 1,283 grams.
- Is the shell Kevlar? Yes. It is a 7-gauge Kevlar knit shell, with Kevlar stitching.
- What is the palm material? Split cowhide leather.
- Can these gloves handle hot materials? No verified finished-glove heat rating is available. Select documented thermal protection for that task.
- Which industries use this style? Manufacturing, fabrication, construction, automotive assembly, warehousing, and maintenance, subject to hazard assessment.
