  • ANSI/ISEA cut level A4 protects against serious laceration risks
  • EN 388 abrasion rating 4 extends glove life in rough tasks
  • Foam nitrile palm coating delivers secure grip in wet or oily conditions
  • Seamless HPPE knit construction maintains high dexterity for detailed work
  • Meets ANSI 105 and EN 388 standards for verified hand protection

SHOWA 234 Cut Resistant Gloves A4

The SHOWA 234 gloves provide ANSI/ISEA cut level A4 protection with a foam nitrile coating on a seamless HPPE knit shell. They are designed for workers who need high dexterity and abrasion resistance level 4 during material handling, assembly or automotive tasks. The finished hem and ambidextrous fit suit both left and right hands.

Foam Nitrile Coating Benefits

The foam nitrile palm coating channels light oil and moisture away from the grip surface while maintaining tactile sensitivity. This coating style covers the palm only, leaving the back of the hand uncoated for breathability. The single-dip construction keeps the glove thin enough for fine motor work without sacrificing the EN 388 1X41D mechanical ratings.

Easy Onboarding and Fit Notes

The seamless knit and finished hem allow the glove to slide on quickly without snagging on rough skin or cuffs. Because the shell is uninsulated, heat builds up slower in warm environments but offers no cold protection. Buyers who need thermal insulation or a double-dipped coating for heavy saturation should look elsewhere. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.

Questions about this item

How often will the HPPE knit shell need replacing when the EN 388 abrasion rating is 4?

The HPPE shell is rated abrasion level 4 under EN 388, so it resists wear longer than lower-rated gloves; replace once the coating wears through or the knit shows thinning.

Which protection limit appears first during continuous cutting tasks — the A4 cut level or the abrasion level?

ANSI/ISEA cut level A4 is the governing limit for slicing hazards; abrasion level 4 handles surface wear, but a sharp edge will reach the cut threshold first.

Do the foam nitrile palms stay cool and flexible during an all-day shift?

The seamless knit construction and foam nitrile palm coating promote airflow and high dexterity, reducing heat build-up and stiffness over extended wear.
