ASTM/ANSI A9 TenActiv cut resistant glove coated nitrile foam, reinforced with leather at the thumb and index finger crossing

ANSI A9 TenActiv™ Dexterity Pro™ cut-resistant glove, goat-leather reinforced, 21 gauge, foam nitrile coated

The TenActiv™ Dexterity Pro™ cut-resistant glove (Superior code S21TXUFNLTC) delivers one of the highest levels of cut protection in the industry, ANSI/ASTM level A9, in an ultra-thin 21-gauge knit that gives a barehand feel. The thumb-and-index crotch is reinforced with goat leather sewn with TenActiv™ thread, extending the wear life of the glove and boosting abrasion resistance where wear is heaviest. The palm and finger backs are coated with a thin foam nitrile that provides a firm, steady grip even on lightly oiled parts, while staying touchscreen compatible. Sold in pairs, available from size XXS (5) to 3XL (12).

TenActiv™ fibre and goat leather: two materials built for cut protection and durability

TenActiv™ fibre is a Superior Glove trademark known for its outstanding thinness-to-protection ratio: it enables a very fine knit (21 gauge) that preserves dexterity while reaching cut level A9. Goat leather is a light, supple material that is highly tear-resistant and naturally rich in lanolin, which keeps it soft: it reinforces the most stressed area of the glove (the thumb-index crotch) without hindering flexibility.

Care and inspection of the TenActiv cut-resistant glove

Before each use, inspect the glove for deep cuts, wear of the nitrile foam and loose stitching at the leather reinforcement. Remove from service any damaged glove that no longer provides the stated level of protection. The mottled grey colour hides stains well, and the glove can be washed and reused according to the manufacturer's recommendations.

FAQ about the A9 TenActiv Dexterity Pro cut-resistant glove

What is this glove's cut resistance level?

It reaches ANSI/ASTM level A9, one of the highest in the industry against cuts, along with level 3 abrasion and level 3 puncture resistance.

Is the glove touchscreen compatible?

Yes. The foam nitrile coating is designed to remain touchscreen compatible, so you can use a phone or tablet without removing the glove.

Does it contain latex or silicone?

No. The glove is free of both latex and silicone, an advantage for environments sensitive to these materials.

Why are the thumb and index finger leather-reinforced?

The thumb-index crotch is the area that takes the most wear. The goat-leather reinforcement, sewn with TenActiv™ thread, extends the glove's wear life there and improves abrasion resistance.

What sizes is this glove available in?

It is available from size XXS (5) to 3XL (12) and sold in pairs. Select your size in the box at the top of the page.
