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

Providing wearers with a barehandlike
sensation without
compromising cut protection or
performance, the HyFlex 11-518
meets EN Cut Level 3 protection,
making it suitable for precision
handling and assembly of sharp, dry,
ultra-fine parts.

The ultralight duty style HyFlex
11-518 is said to be the first glove in
the market to combine the
mechanical protection properties of
EN Cut Level 3 – associated with
heavier duty gloves – with a
comfortable, cut-resistant and
multipurpose 18 gauge style.

Recently introduced, Dyneema
Diamond Technology’s soft, strong,
cut-resistant yarn is 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.
