Skytec Torq Strike EC gloves are highly dexterous cut and impact resistant work gloves designed for construction crews, highway work, heavy infrastructure, manufacturing, maritime operations, oil and gas, steel handling, metal work, demolition, drilling, refining, and industrial safety programs.
Built with a thin water-repellent AireFlex synthetic leather palm, these multi-hazard impact gloves provide the feel of a mechanic-style glove while adding palm cut protection, back-of-hand impact protection, abrasion resistance, and puncture resistance. A woven Aralene enhanced aramid liner in the palm delivers ANSI A6 cut resistance where workers handle sharp materials, metal, abrasive parts, tools, and equipment.
The foam-laminated spandex shell supports dexterity and movement, while ergonomic TPR impact protection helps shield the fingers, thumb, knuckles, and metacarpal area. The glove’s yellow and red high-visibility design helps improve hand visibility in active jobsites, and the 360-degree water-repellent treatment helps keep hands drier in wet outdoor conditions.
A reinforced thumb saddle improves durability in a common wear area, while the open cuff, shirred elastic back, and pull tab make the glove easy to put on and remove during demanding work.
Bulk Ordering & Procurement Support
Need cut and impact resistant gloves for construction crews, utility teams, oil and gas operations, manufacturing lines, steel handling, highway work, maritime crews, municipal departments, or recurring PPE programs? ASA Supplies supports business, government, municipal, contractor, facility, industrial, and safety purchasing teams with bulk quote support, volume pricing, purchase orders, and product sourcing assistance.
Safety Note
ANSI A6 cut resistance applies to the palm only per the manufacturer listing. These gloves are cut-resistant, not cut-proof. They are not intended for high thermal exposure beyond 100°C / 212°F, electrical protection, or chemical protection. Do not use near moving machinery where there is an entanglement risk. Water-repellent does not mean waterproof. Always match glove protection to the task, material handled, exposure conditions, and EHS requirements.

Buying Guide: Torq Strike EC vs. Heavier Impact Gloves
Choose the Torq Strike EC when workers need cut and impact protection but still need high dexterity for tools, equipment, parts, and precision handling. It is a strong choice when a heavier impact glove feels too bulky but a standard mechanic glove does not provide enough cut or impact protection.
For higher cut hazards or heavier back-of-hand impact exposure, consider a glove with a higher cut rating or Level 3 impact rating. For chemical handling, electrical hazards, or high-heat work, choose task-specific gloves rated for those hazards.
