ARDANT™-AIR XD Cut Level D XREY™ Microfoam Safety Gloves 18 gauge

rdent-Air XD XREY™ Cut Level D Microfoam Safety Gloves

The Ardent-Air XD XREY™ Cut Level D Microfoam Safety Gloves represent the next generation of cut-resistant hand protection, combining exceptional comfort, durability and precision handling. Featuring a patented 18 gauge XREY™ liner, these gloves are among the lightest Cut Level D gloves available, weighing just 34g per pair—up to 50% lighter than comparable 13 gauge gloves.

Manufactured using patented XREY™ yarn, the liner is completely free from steel and glass fibres, helping to reduce irritation while maintaining outstanding cut protection. The advanced yarn technology provides an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, delivering a lightweight glove without compromising on performance.

The durable microfoam nitrile palm coating provides outstanding grip in dry, wet and oily conditions, while the ultra-thin 0.66mm fingertip thickness offers exceptional dexterity and tactile sensitivity for precision tasks. Integrated RTC™ (Reinforced Thumb Crotch) technology strengthens a key wear area, extending the glove’s service life by up to 30%.

Designed for demanding industrial environments, the gloves are fully touchscreen compatible, allowing users to operate smartphones, tablets and handheld devices without removing their gloves. They are also independently certified to OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, ensuring the textiles have been tested for harmful substances.

The gloves have been wash tested for up to three washes without affecting their EN 388 performance and are suitable for repeated use when washed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
