Barehand-like sensation

Ansell has added a new glove to its
HyFlex series: the HyFlex 11-518.

Reported to provide wearers with a
‘barehand-like’ sensation without
compromising cut protection or
performance, the ultralight HyFlex
11-518 glove is rated for EN Cut
Level 3 protection, making it suitable
for precision handling and assembly
of sharp, dry, ultra-fine parts.

The ultralight duty style HyFlex
features Dyneema Diamond
Technology soft, strong, cutresistant
yarn – applied using
Ansell 3D knitting technologies and
finished with a tough PU coating,
to deliver EN Cut Level 3 and EN
Abrasion Level 3 in a lightweight
and breathable fit and feel. In field
trials the 11-518 was preferred by
nearly 70% of workers now using
heavier gloves for similar tasks, a
comfort preference that correlates
with compliance. Stand 56
