Cut-resistant Gloves
Cut-resistant Gloves Manufacturer
Shanghai Haokuo Safety Technology Co., Ltd. is a specialized manufacturer of cut-resistant gloves, offering a range of protective cut-resistant glove products designed specifically for demanding industrial work environments. We are committed to providing hand protection solutions that comply with EN388, ANSI, and other internationally recognized standards for global distributors, importers, industrial brands, and OEM clients. Our gloves are precision-woven from four mainstream high-quality cut-resistant materials—HPPE, tungsten wire, steel wire, and fiberglass—and fully comply with the EU EN388:2019 safety standard. This tightly woven and structurally stable fabric fully integrates the performance advantages of each raw material, effectively protecting against cuts from metal, glass, sheet metal, and sharp plastic edges, thereby eliminating the risk of cutting injuries in daily operations. All products have been tested by authoritative third-party laboratories and come with complete and traceable certification. Our products meet the personal protective equipment (PPE) regulatory requirements in Europe, the Americas, Southeast Asia, and other regions worldwide, and are capable of satisfying stringent overseas procurement specifications.

What is cut-resistant Gloves？
HPPE: Top‑tier cut‑resistant performance, lightweight and comfy to wear, remarkable abrasion resistance, and resistance against acids, alkalis and chemical corrosion
Steel Wire: Premium cut‑resistance rating. It guards against lacerations caused by blades, metal edges, broken glass and cut iron sheets. Metal steel wire features better heat tolerance than synthetic cut‑resistant yarns. It will not melt or lose its protective capacity upon brief contact with hot‑metal items and fits welding and metal‑processing working stations.
Glass Fibre: Rigid glass fibres blunt sharp blades to achieve a high‑level EN388 cut‑resistance rating and deliver protection against iron sheets, cutting tools, shattered glass and sharp metal burrs. It comes with a high melting point and resists molten dripping under open flames, suited for high‑temperature work posts. It withstands erosion from acids, alkalis, lubricants and detergents. The material hardly ages or gets damaged after exposure to industrial grease. Its rigid‑hardened fibres resist pilling and fuzzing after long‑term friction.
How Cut-Resistant Gloves Protect Your Safety?
Boasting ultra‑long molecular chains and outstanding tensile strength, HPPE fibre readily reaches the maximum Level‑5 cut‑resistance rating of EN388. It serves as the dominant material for industrial cut‑resistant gloves and offers reliable defence against scratches caused by metal edges, shattered glass, iron sheets and sharp metal burrs.
The fibre resists corrosion and ageing when exposed to weak acids, weak alkalis, lubricants and cutting‑fluids. It stays stable under moist surroundings and suffers no strength loss upon wetting, in contrast to aramid fibre whose tensile property degrades after water contact.
HPPE possesses roughly 15‑fold the tensile strength of steel with low‑density fibres, which minimises hand fatigue during extended‑time wear.
UV‑resistant and resistant to ageing
Steel‑wire liner boasts excellent puncture resistance. It can withstand punctures from iron nails and metal burrs better than HPPE fibres. With superior heat‑resistant property and high melting‑point characteristic, steel wire outperforms synthetic cut‑resistant yarns. It keeps intact after short‑term contact with hot metal and avoids functional failure, which makes it ideal for welding and metal‑processing occupations.
The difference between impact-resistant gloves and standard protective gloves
Standard‑duty work gloves offer basic hand‑protection against dirt, abrasion and minor scuffs without cut‑resistant performance. Their shielding capacity stays limited against sharp hazards such as razor blades, broken glass and sharp‑shelled seafood during oyster shucking.
Our cut‑resistant gloves feature 3‑5 times the service life of regular cotton knit gloves. They shield palms and backs of hands from sharp‑object injuries, lower workplace hazards and cut down worker accidents.

FAQ
Q: What cut resistance levels do your gloves offer?
A: Our cut-resistant gloves are certified to EN388:2016 standards, ranging from Level A to Level F (cut resistance). We also offer gloves meeting ANSI/ISEA 105 standards from A1 to A9. The most popular models are EN388 Level C/D and ANSI A4/A5, suitable for most industrial applications.
Q: What materials are used in your cut-resistant gloves?
A: Our gloves are primarily made with high-performance HPPE (High-Performance Polyethylene) fiber blended with steel wire, glass fiber, or spandex for enhanced cut protection and comfort. Premium models incorporate aramid fiber (Kevlar) for higher heat and cut resistance. Palm coatings include nitrile, PU, and latex options for improved grip and durability.
Q: How do I choose the right cut level for my application?
A: For general handling and light assembly, EN388 Level A/B or ANSI A1-A2 is sufficient. For metal stamping, glass handling, or sharp edge work, we recommend EN388 Level C/D。For heavy-duty applications like metal sheet processing or blade handling, EN388 Level E/F or ANSI A6-A9 is required. We offer free consultation to help you select the optimal glove based on your specific workplace hazards.
Q: Can cut-resistant gloves be washed and reused?
A: Yes, most of our cut-resistant gloves are machine washable. We recommend washing at temperatures below 40°C (104°F) with mild detergent, and air drying. Proper washing can extend glove lifespan by 30-50%. However, gloves should be replaced immediately if there are visible tears, cuts, or significant wear on the palm coating.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of cut-resistant gloves?
A: Lifespan varies significantly by application, cut level, and frequency of use. Under normal industrial conditions, HPPE gloves typically last 2-4 weeks, while steel wire reinforced models can last 1-3 months. Compared to regular cotton gloves, our cut-resistant gloves offer 3-5 times longer durability, reducing overall PPE costs.
Q: Are cut‑resistant gloves completely knife‑proof?
A: They greatly lower the risk of cuts instead of offering absolute cut‑proof performance. They defend against common industrial sharp hazards including utility blades, metal burrs, glass and rough workpiece edges. They are not suitable for extreme‑condition work such as repeated violent sawing and high‑speed power‑tool operation.
Q: What do different cut‑resistance levels mean and how do I pick the right one?
A: Level 5 / Grade‑D: Ideal for sorting, packing and logistics work Grade‑E: Suited for glass handling, hardware‑related work, sheet‑metal and machining jobs Grade‑F (heavy‑duty cut resistance): Recommended for sharp‑part handling, slaughterhouses and knife‑processing procedures
Q: Are the gloves washable and long‑lasting?
A: They can be washed repeatedly without lint shedding or shape‑shifting. They deliver far longer service life than ordinary cotton knit gloves under regular workshop conditions. Avoid long‑time soaking in strong acid‑alkaline solutions for extended service span.
Q: Will the gloves shed lint for electronics and photovoltaic workshops?
A: Premium HPPE material generates minimal dust and fibre‑shedding. It will not contaminate circuit boards, silicon wafers and precision components, perfectly matching clean‑room photovoltaic and electronic‑assembly requirements.
Q: Is it necessary to change glove grades for different working stations?
A: Match glove specifications to your working conditions. Choose basic cut‑resistant gloves for light‑duty sorting and heavy‑duty high‑grade gloves for metal‑processing and glass‑handling. This balances workplace safety and purchasing cost‑efficiency.
