Brass Knuckle® Safety Products (Alpharetta, GA) has introduced the SmartShell™ BKCR4599, a heavy-duty protective glove that offers wide-ranging protection for extreme jobs. This glove is a category jumper, providing heavy-duty cut resistance, light oil and moisture resistance, non-tacky slip resistance and shock-absorbing impact protection, all in an easy-wearing fit that defies comfort expectations. Providing a broad spectrum of protection, this high-end mechanic’s glove delivers ANSI level 4 cut resistance in a very breathable, durable and flexible glove.
On the palm and fingers, the glove offers three layers of protection.The liner is an ultra-high-performance polyethylene (HPPE) and spandex composite that delivers strong cut resistance without bulk. Bonded to that first layer is a gray polyurethane (PU) fabric topped with a grippy nitrile surface, a barrier to light oil or other light liquid penetration. In the critical areas of the palm, padding provides impact resistance. Finally, the back of the hand is loaded with sonically welded thermoplastic rubber (TPR) padding that easily counters workplace pounding and abrasion.
These gloves are made of strong construction that combines fit, form and function without sacrificing long-wearing comfort and excellent dexterity. The glove is well suited to work in a wide variety of industries, including metal handling in heavy equipment, machine tool operations and manufacturing.
