Impact Resistant Glove

At SRSafety, we understand that workers in high-risk, high-moisture environments don’t just need a glove – they need protection that performs. Our latest Impact Resistant Glove is engineered to meet that exact demand: a glove tough enough to shield against cuts and impacts, yet nimble enough for precision work, even in wet, oily conditions.

Built for Comfort Without Compromise

At SRSafety, we believe comfort is not a luxury – it’s essential for performance. When we designed this Impact Resistant Glove, our first goal was to create a glove that protects without slowing you down. That starts with the liner. We chose a high-performance blend of 18-gauge nylon, HPPE, and steel fiber to form the foundation.

This advanced knit structure delivers an incredibly lightweight and breathable feel, allowing your hands to move naturally throughout the day. The 18-gauge nylon ensures flexibility and softness against the skin, while the HPPE and steel fiber work together to provide high-level cut resistance, exceeding ANSI A5 and ISO 13997 Level E standards. You get robust protection without the stiffness or bulk found in many heavy-duty gloves.

But we didn’t stop there. We added hot-pressed TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) to the back of the hand – a smartly engineered layer that absorbs energy from sudden impacts. Whether you’re handling heavy parts, using vibrating tools, or working in confined spaces, this flexible shield protects your knuckles and fingers from bangs, bumps, and flying debris.

✅Seamless 18-gauge liner keeps hands cool and agile

✅Reinforced with HPPE and steel fiber for ultimate cut resistance

✅Hot-pressed TPR ensures reliable impact protection

✅Full-range motion with zero bulk

One of the most common complaints we hear from workers is about hand fatigue after long shifts. That’s why we engineered this glove to feel weightless, while still offering full coverage. The breathable materials wick away moisture, reducing sweat buildup and helping you stay dry and comfortable – no matter the weather or workload.

With this glove, you don’t have to compromise. You get the safety features you need, combined with the comfort and dexterity you want. Because at SRSafety, we know that real protection starts with how the glove feels the moment you put it on.

Get a Grip – Even When Its Wet

One of the biggest challenges in industrial environments is maintaining a steady grip when hands are exposed to water, oil, or slippery surfaces. We designed our Impact Resistant Glove with that exact challenge in mind. Instead of a smooth or basic coating, we applied a sandy nitrile finish – a high-traction surface engineered for control in unpredictable conditions.

This specialized coating forms micro-textures across the palm and fingers. These tiny grip points act like suction cups, channeling away liquid and creating friction even when the glove is drenched. Whether you’re lifting greasy parts, gripping glass panels, or working with tools soaked in cutting fluid, this glove keeps its hold – reducing the risk of dropped items, slowdowns, or injuries.

Unlike some coatings that wear down after minimal use, our sandy nitrile is formulated for durability. It resists tearing, cracking, and chemical damage, so it holds strong across multiple shifts – even in the presence of diesel, coolant, or cleaning solvents. That’s why professionals in the automotive, steel, construction, and oil industries choose this glove as their go-to for wet workdays.

✅Superior grip on wet, oily, or smooth materials

✅Abrasion-resistant palm extends glove life

✅Chemically stable – resists common shop fluids and oils

✅Seamless knit cuff seals out water and debris

But it’s not just about the grip – it’s about how that grip helps you work better. In high-paced environments, confidence in your tools makes all the difference. When your gloves feel secure, you can move quicker, stay focused, and finish tasks without second-guessing your hold. Whether you’re out in the rain, working next to heavy machinery, or deep in a maintenance pit, this glove is built to perform. At SRSafety, we don’t just protect your hands – we help you keep your momentum, even when the job gets slippery.

Why We Made This Glove

At SRSafety, we’ve always believed that protective gear should be built for the real world – not just for passing lab tests or sitting on shelves. When we developed this Impact Resistant Glove, we had one goal in mind: to eliminate the compromises workers are often forced to make between flexibility, cut resistance, and wet-condition grip.

Too often, gloves that offer serious protection come at the cost of comfort and dexterity. That simply didn’t sit right with us. We spoke directly with people in the field – mechanics, rig operators, warehouse teams, construction crews – and what we heard was clear: they need gloves that do it all. Gloves that don’t slow them down, slip in wet environments, or feel like body armor.

So we built one.

Our in-house R&D team spent months engineering the perfect combination of materials and protection. From the seamless 18-gauge liner that moves with the hand, to the durable sandy nitrile coating, to the precisely placed hot-pressed TPR, every component was tested in real jobsite conditions – not just in controlled labs.

We’re proud to offer this glove in sizes 7/S to 12/3XL, with full customization options to match your brand or operational needs:

✅Add your logo for brand recognition

✅Choose TPR colors to align with your safety program

✅Select between retail or bulk packaging

✅Request specific grip textures or cuff styles for your industry

With a minimum order quantity of 6,000 pairs and a lead time of 60 – 120 days, this glove is ready to scale with you – whether you’re equipping a small team or outfitting an entire division.

If your crew faces wet conditions, impact hazards, or sharp materials, this glove was made with them in mind. At SRSafety, we don’t just follow standards – we challenge them. Let’s build your next essential glove, customized to meet the demands of your workday.
