Product Information

Full details

The Portwest AP32 Dexti Cut Pro Glove is designed for professionals who handle sharp tools or materials and require reliable hand protection without compromising dexterity. Its key benefit is offering a balance of Level B cut resistance and high flexibility with an exceptional grip, even in wet or oily conditions. A potential caveat is that while providing good protection, it is rated ANSI cut level A2, which may not be sufficient for the most extreme cutting hazards. This glove features an 18-gauge seamless liner, a sandy palm nitrile coating, and a reinforced thumb crotch for enhanced durability and comfort during prolonged use.

FAQs

What is the cut resistance level of the Portwest AP32 Dexti Cut Pro Glove?

The glove offers Level B cut resistance according to EN388 standards and ANSI cut level A2.

Are these gloves suitable for handling hot or cold objects?

These gloves are not designed for thermal protection. They do not provide insulation against extreme heat or cold.

Can I use these gloves for protection against chemicals?

The nitrile coating offers some protection against certain substances, but these gloves are not specifically rated for chemical resistance. For chemical handling, specialized gloves are recommended.

How do I determine the right size?

Refer to the Portwest size guide, which typically involves measuring the circumference of your palm and the length of your hand.

What does '18 gauge liner' mean?

An 18 gauge liner indicates a very fine knit, resulting in a thinner, more flexible glove that enhances dexterity and tactile feel.

How should I clean the gloves?

Hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

What does OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 approved mean?

It means the materials used in the glove have been tested for harmful substances and are safe for human health.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct size using the Portwest size guide. A proper fit is essential for dexterity and protection.

Reduced grip after prolonged use.

Clean the gloves according to the care instructions to remove any accumulated grease, oil, or dirt that may be affecting the sandy coating.

Signs of wear or damage (cuts, holes).

Immediately discontinue use and replace the gloves. Damaged gloves do not provide adequate protection and increase the risk of injury.

Hand fatigue during extended wear.

While designed to reduce fatigue, ensure the size is correct. If fatigue persists, consider taking short breaks and stretching your hands.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent balance of cut protection and dexterity.
  • Superior grip in various conditions, including wet and oily surfaces.
  • Comfortable for prolonged use due to ergonomic design and lightweight feel.
  • Durable construction with reinforced thumb crotch for extended lifespan.
  • Good tactile feedback for intricate tasks.

Cons

  • ANSI cut level A2 may not be sufficient for extremely high-risk cutting tasks.
  • Nitrile coating might offer less protection against certain chemicals compared to other materials.
  • 18-gauge liner, while dexterous, might be less abrasion-resistant than thicker gloves.
  • May not provide thermal insulation for very hot or cold environments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Portwest AP32 Dexti Cut Pro Glove is ready for immediate use straight out of the packaging. Ensure you select the correct size for a snug but comfortable fit. A proper fit is crucial for both dexterity and safety.

Compatibility: These gloves are designed for general handling and protection against cuts and abrasion. They are ideal for use in industries such as construction, manufacturing, automotive, and logistics. The nitrile coating provides good grip in wet and oily conditions. However, they are not designed for protection against heat, chemicals, or electrical hazards.

Care: To maintain the performance and lifespan of your gloves:

  1. Cleaning: Hand wash using mild soap and cold water. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach.
  2. Drying: Air dry the gloves away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not tumble dry.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original packaging or a breathable bag, to prevent damage and maintain material integrity.
  4. Inspection: Before each use, inspect the gloves for any signs of wear, such as cuts, tears, or degradation of the coating. Discard gloves that show significant damage.
