Pair of grey cut-resistant gloves with black nitrile palm coating and acrylic insulation

Ironclad

Ironclad KKC5BW-04-L Coated Gloves HPPE Nitrile Palm Acrylic

SKU CH-1K5S-92D3R

Cut-resistant coated gloves with HPPE knit, nitrile palm and acrylic insulation rated ANSI A4 cut, abrasion level 4 and EN 388:2016 4X42E

  • ANSI/ISEA Cut Level A4 resists sharp edges
  • EN 388:2016 4X42E certifies abrasion and tear performance
  • Acrylic insulation keeps hands warm in cold conditions
  • Nitrile palm coating delivers grip in wet and oily environments
  • ANSI/ISEA 138 impact protection guards knuckles and fingers

Ironclad HPPE Nitrile Coated Gloves

These gloves combine an HPPE knit shell with a nitrile palm coating and acrylic insulation. They meet ANSI/ISEA 105 cut level A4 and abrasion level 4, plus ANSI/ISEA 138 impact protection and EN 388:2016 4X42E ratings. The palm-dipped, single-layer coating preserves dexterity while shielding against cuts, abrasion and impact hazards.

Workers handling sharp materials in cold conditions

Ideal for assembly, metal fabrication and logistics tasks where cut resistance and thermal insulation are both required. The acrylic lining adds warmth without bulk, and the nitrile palm maintains grip in light oil or wet environments. Not suited for workers needing full hand immersion protection, chemical permeation resistance or high-heat thermal ratings beyond the listed standards.

ANSI/ISEA 105 Cut Level A4 rating

This single classification defines the glove’s resistance to cutting forces under the North American standard. It determines whether the glove meets the minimum protection threshold for a given application. Buyers should verify that A4 aligns with their site safety requirements before purchase.

Questions about this item

How do I put on the HPPE knit gloves so the nitrile palm coating grips correctly?

Slide each hand in fully, align the palm coating with your palm, then pull the acrylic cuff snug over the wrist so the A4 cut layer and 4X42E abrasion rating stay in contact with the work surface.

When should I replace the gloves based on the ANSI/ISEA 105 A4 cut and abrasion 4 ratings?

Replace the pair once the nitrile coating shows visible wear-through, the HPPE fibres fray, or the acrylic insulation no longer holds its shape, as those changes mean the A4 cut and level 4 abrasion protection have degraded.

What is the first performance limit reached during continuous heavy handling with the EN 388:2016 4X42E rating?

The abrasion level 4 layer wears through before the cut level E or impact protection fails, so sustained rough contact will reduce grip and expose the HPPE knit first.
