Robust tactical gloves crafted from durable DuraHide leather offer exceptional cut resistance. Outfitted with a waterproof HiPora membrane and insulated with 100 g/m2 of synthetic PrimaLoft Gold fill, they are ideally suited for automotive workshop tasks, DIY projects, as well as tactical and survival scenarios.
Constructed from highly durable DuraHide leather, paired with an inner HPPE lining, the model ensures a high level of cut resistance compliant with EN 388 F and ANSI A9 standards. The upper part of the gloves features ergonomically designed thermoplastic rubber (TPR) panels, shielding the hand against abrasions and impacts. These panels are certified to meet EN 13594 and ANSI 138 Level 2 standards. Integrated compartments allow fingers to move freely and the hand to form a tight fist without restriction.
Materials utilized in manufacturing offer outstanding abrasion resistance (in line with EN 388 level 4). Additional features include superior anti-slip properties and an excellent fit to the hand for enhanced user comfort. Special fingertip stitching enables precise control of firearms, radios, and sensitive equipment.
Featuring a state-of-the-art HiPora membrane, these gloves deliver complete waterproofness and windproofness. In addition to these protective qualities, they offer excellent breathability, efficiently wicking away excess moisture and ensuring optimal air circulation. The membrane's flexible fabric grants unrestricted freedom of movement.
The PrimaLoft Gold synthetic insulation, weighing 100 g/m2, delivers reliable warmth to the hands and ensures superior thermal comfort even in adverse weather. Outstanding breathability allows effective moisture management, preventing hand overheating inside the gloves.
Equipped with hydrophobic qualities, the insulation maintains its thermal performance even when damp, making these gloves an excellent option for variable and challenging weather conditions.
A broadened cuff featuring an internal protector delivers effective abrasion resistance to the upper hand. Elastic welts provide an excellent, secure fit around the wrists, while convenient straps facilitate quick and easy donning and removal of the gloves.
The gloves adhere to the American protective standard ANSI/ISEA 105 at level XA9X for resistance against cuts, abrasion, and punctures, meaning:
- X: abrasion resistance (scale ranges from 1 to 6)
- A9: cut resistance (scale ranges from A1 to A9)
- X: puncture resistance (scale ranges from 0 to 5)
The gloves comply with the EN388 protective standard at level 4X43FP for mechanical hazard protection, indicating:
- 4: abrasion resistance (scale 0–4)
- X: cut resistance (scale 0–5)
- 4: tear resistance (scale 0–4)
- 3: puncture resistance (scale 0–4)
- F: cut resistance – TDM test (ISO 13997) (scale A–F)
- P: impact protection (passes test)
Cold protection is certified under EN511 level 221, signifying:
- 2: resistance to convective cold (scale 0–4)
- 2: resistance to contact cold (scale 0–4)
- 1: resistance to water penetration (0 = penetration, 1 = no penetration)
The gloves conform to the ANSI/ISEA 138 standard at level 2 in terms of impact energy absorption capability, signifying:
- 1: basic impact protection
- 2: medium protection level
- 3: high protection level
Within the ANSI/ISEA 105 standard, abrasion resistance is measured on a scale from 1 to 6 and indicates the number of abrasion cycles material can withstand before wear. Cut resistance ranges on a scale from A1 to A9 (lowest to highest protection). Puncture resistance is rated from 0 to 5, reflecting the force needed to pierce the glove surface with a sharp probe (excluding needle punctures).
Defined protection levels in EN388 and EN511 standards are as follows: 0 signifies no protection, while the maximum scores (4 or 5) represent the greatest resistance. Water resistance: 0 = penetration, 1 = no penetration.
For the TDM test method (ISO 13997), letter designations apply, with A denoting the lowest protection and F signifying the highest.
Impact protection assessment relies on the transmitted force (kN) during impact testing. A lower transmitted force equates to greater glove protection.
The symbol X indicates the parameter was not evaluated or is not applicable. The symbol P denotes that the glove satisfies impact protection criteria.
