Ansell ActivArmr 97-006 Dyneema Carpenter Glove, Adjustable Cuff, Medium (Pack of 1 Pair)

The Ansell ActivArmr 97-006 Dyneema carpenter glove, medium, protects hands against cuts and abrasions, has a polyurethane palm coating that offers greater wear resistance than leather and facilitates gripping tools, and is knit from Dyneema fiber for strength and durability. Dyneema fiber, also known as UHMWPE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) fiber, offers greater cut protection than leather, greater abrasion resistance than aramid fibers, and greater strength than steel. Ansell's knitted variable stitch design (KVSD) provides a barehanded feeling and breathability. The cuff has a slip wrist design, an adjustable wrist closure for comfort, and an ID nameplate on inner cuff for personal identification. This glove meets American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and International Safety Equipment Association (ISEA) 105-2005 performance rating standards for Level 2 cut resistance. It is suitable for use in working with wood, nails, metal, and power tools, as well as cutting, fastening, and carving wooden objects.

Work gloves help protect the hands, can cover the wrists, and sometimes extend to cover part, or all, of the arm. Work gloves are typically constructed from leather or heavy cotton and are suitable for use in construction, mechanical, landscaping, and do-it-yourself applications to help protect against minor cuts and abrasions. Work gloves for use in manufacturing and construction industries can be made of woven, high-strength synthetic fiber to resist cuts from heavy machinery and withstand high levels of heat without melting. Work gloves may also be made of, or include, flame retardant material for use in welding and other heavy-duty applications.

Ansell manufactures gloves and protective clothing. The company, founded in 1905, is headquartered in Red Bank, NJ.
