Kevlar® delivers the ultimate in hand protection without reducing manual dexterity or comfort. It offers exceptional cut and slash resistance, yet is lightweight, soft and comfortable to wear. Cut resistance is inherent to Kevlar® brand fiber. Repeated laundering has minimal impact on cut resistance.
As the chart below demonstrates, ASTM F1790-04 tests reveal that gloves made with DuPont™ Kevlar® brand fiber can provide more than 2.5 times the cut resistance of leather and cotton. Delivering comfort, long wear life, easy maintenance and launderability, while helping to save you the cost of injuries, Kevlar® helps protect workers and makes good business sense too.
