Portwest A727 DX VHR Orange Impact Gloves

Maximum Impact Shielding and Level F Cut Defense

The Portwest A727 DX VHR Orange Impact Gloves are engineered to deliver premium multi-hazard hand protection in severe industrial environments. Built with a high-visibility orange design, these heavy-duty gloves safeguard operators against high-energy crushing forces, dangerous pinches, and severe mechanical slashes. They are the ideal choice for heavy assembly, rig operations, and engineering projects where safety compliance and physical hand defense are paramount.

Directly Bonded TPR/TPV Pod Impact Technology

The standout structural feature of the A727 model is its innovative Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR/TPV) impact cushions positioned across the back of the hand, knuckles, and fingers. Unlike traditional protective padding, these impact pods are bonded directly onto the liner instead of using restrictive machine stitching. This advanced engineering allows the glove to move completely freely with the natural flexing of the hand, maintaining exceptional dexterity and long-term joint comfort while absorbing dynamic shock waves.

Rugged 13-Gauge Composite Liner with Elite Cut Resistance

At the center of this protective glove is a high-density 13-gauge seamless composite liner expertly knitted from high-performance polyethylene (HPPE), steel fiber, and glass fiber threads. This premium material selection achieves an outstanding EN 388 Level E cut resistance and an impressive ANSI Cut Level A6 rating. This heavy-duty weave acts as a reliable barrier against structural raw metal burrs, sharp glass sheets, and slicing hazards.

Flexible Sandy Nitrile Coating for Extreme Gripping Power

To optimize mechanical traction, the palm and fingertips feature a premium sandy nitrile coating. This specialized textured compound efficiently channels away surface fluids, light lubricants, and workspace grimes, ensuring an uncompromising, non-slip hold on slick tools and machinery. The palm-dipped layout balances robust physical grip with thermal defense, providing certified contact heat protection over 200°F (100°C) for up to 15 seconds. An integrated elasticated knit wrist cuff ensures a snug, ergonomic closure that seals out flying metal shards, dust, and abrasive grit.

Primary Industrial Work Settings

• Oil & Gas Rig Operations: Provides essential knuckle defense against heavy pipe impacts, rigging mechanisms, and slick petroleum fluids.

• Heavy Infrastructure & Construction: Protects hand bones from falling debris, handling rough concrete blocks, and maneuvering steel rebar.

• Heavy Engineering & Machining: Offers operators dealing with high-torque tools and rough-cut sheet metals exceptional grip and laceration protection.

• Demolition & Waste Processing: Safeguards industrial material sorting crews working around unpredictable sharp jagged borders and crushing hazards.
