CutMaster XKS Work Gloves deliver a new standard in cut resistant hand protection. The XKS200PR is a medium weight, 7 gauge machine knit style that provides heavy-duty ANSI Cut Level 4 protection and is well suited for general purpose applications including material handling, product assembly and maintenance work. This style features black plastic (PVC) dots on both sides, delivering improved grip and abrasion resistance, and extending the life of the glove. At the glove's core is XKS Yarn manufactured from a unique combination of stainless steel wire, para-aramid and high performance fibers. The result is machine knit gloves that offer as much as two-and-a-half times greater cut protection than gloves made from a 100% para-aramid or HPPE yarn of a similar weight. And compared with competing fibers utilizing steel wire, XKS Yarn's proprietary manufacturing process virtually eliminates wire popping, ensuring on-going protection, minimizing potential discomfort and extending wear. Benefiting from the inherent strength and dark coloration of XKS Yarn, CutMaster XKS Gloves effectively hide dirt and grime reducing the rate of disposal or laundering required. The gloves' superb durability in the field and in the wash extends wear up to two to three times longer than gloves made from other cut resistant materials.
