ANSI A4 Cut Resistant Gloves Series

Applications of ANSI A4 Cut Resistant Gloves

Heavy Metal Stamping

Designed to protect against razor-sharp edges of metal blanks and stamped components in high-speed production lines.

Glass Manufacturing & Installation

Provides a critical safety barrier for handling large glass panes and shards, where A2 or A3 gloves are insufficient.

Automotive Body Shop

Ideal for workers dealing with raw metal frames, engine parts, and sharp-edged mechanical sub-assemblies.

Heavy Construction & Steel Tying

Engineered to withstand the friction and cut hazards of handling rebar, steel cables, and abrasive building materials.

Recycling & Waste Management

Offers superior defense against mixed sharp waste, including broken glass, scrap metal, and industrial refuse.

Aerospace Maintenance

Delivers precision tactile sensitivity paired with heavy-duty cut protection for complex engine and fuselage repair tasks.

ANSI A4 Cut Resistant Gloves FAQ

ANSI A4 gloves are tested using the TDM-100 method to withstand a cut load of 1,500 to 2,199 grams. This classification is considered “heavy-duty cut protection,” suitable for environments with frequent exposure to sharp edges.

You should upgrade to ANSI A4 when your workers are handling metal sheets with burrs, glass shards, or using sharp utility blades. While A2/A3 is for light-to-medium tasks, A4 is the minimum recommended for high-risk metal and glass industries.

Not with Armorppe technology. As a specialized manufacturer, we use advanced Adamas® fiber, which allows us to achieve A4 protection in a 15-gauge or 18-gauge liner, maintaining the dexterity required for fine assembly.

Yes. We offer comprehensive OEM/ODM services for wholesale customers. We can print your company logo and customize colors to fit your corporate safety-coding system.

Our A4 series is built for longevity. With a Level 4 abrasion rating, our gloves last significantly longer in friction-heavy environments, drastically reducing your long-term bulk buy procurement costs.

Yes, we offer specific A4 models with Nitrile Sandy or Micro-foam coatings. These finishes are designed to channel away liquids and oil, providing a non-slip grip in the most demanding mechanical environments.
