Ironclad IEX-MPG-05-XL Mechanics Touchscreen Gloves XL Black/Silver personal protective equipment

Ironclad Mechanics Touchscreen Gloves XL

These XL mechanics gloves combine synthetic leather palms with polyester backs and neoprene rubber knuckle protection for workshop tasks. The slip-on cuff and unlined construction keep hands cool while the touchscreen-compatible fingertips allow device use without removal. Cut resistance meets ANSI/ISEA Level A2 on the palm side for added safety during sharp-edge handling.

ANSI/ISEA A2 Cut Resistance Limits

The A2 rating covers the palm side only and protects against light to moderate cut hazards such as sheet metal edges or utility knives. It does not guard against high-force punctures, heavy slash risks or chemical exposure, so tasks involving those dangers need higher-rated or specialised hand protection instead.

Slip-On Fit and Common Issues

The slip-on cuff makes the gloves quick to pull on and off, but it can loosen during repetitive wrist movement and may let debris enter the glove interior. Synthetic leather palms can stiffen after repeated washing, reducing tactile feel, while the neoprene knuckle pads may compress over time and offer less impact cushioning.
