HEXARMOR OIL & Gas SAFETY GLOVES ARE ENGINEERED TO PROVIDE MAXIMUM PROTECTION ALONG WITH MAXIMUM DEXTERITY AND GRIP

Protection in the Tough and Hazardous World of Oil and Gas Production

HexArmor gloves are constructed with superior and proven materials and technology. The foundation of HexArmor Oil & Gas Gloves is our proprietary SuperFabric.™ The innovative configuration of SuperFabric™ provides resistance to lacerations, punctures and slashes like no other material in the industry today.

cut resistance comparisonWhile common cut-resistant products, with blends of yarns such as Kevlar,® Dyneema,® or Spectra,® give some minimal protection from straight edged cut hazards, they don’t offer sufficient protection from variable hazards such as metal burrs, wires, or slivers commonly found in oil and gas production environments. HexArmor gloves exceed the industry’s highest testing standards – ISEA and CE Level 5 – giving you the protection you need most, where you need it. No other competitive glove comes close.

The perfect technical and protective fabric for the job at hand: HexArmor with SuperFabric™ maximizes resistance against cuts, slashes and punctures, while providing a superior foundation for maintaining essential dexterity and grip.

PREVENTING lacerations and puncture WOUNDS

Many lacerations start out as a puncture. A sharp edge, corner, burr, wire “wicker,” or other protruding hazards can penetrate the glove and scrape or cut skin. With synthetic leather or cotton gloves, the hazard will poke through the surface of the glove and tear laterally to create a laceration. While a glove may say it has ‘cut-resistance,’ it often lacks the puncture protection to stop lacerations.

Proven protection against punctures. HexArmor Oil & Gas Safety Gloves with SuperFabric™ are both laboratory and field tested to validate puncture resistance performance. At 187 Newtons, the HexArmor 4021X is 131% more puncture resistant than the closest competitor.

THE NEXT GENERATION OF impact protection

HexArmor’s new, proprietary HexArmor IR-X™ Impact Guards, engineered with advanced impact shielding materials, deliver a superior level of protection against the types of impact injuries that can quite literally take you off the job. HexArmor’s new impact guard design has the ability to dampen blunt force to the hand better than any other product on the market, including the KONG and Ringer (up to 133% more rebound).

HexArmor IR-X ™ Impact Guards are created with optimal density and rebound properties. While competitive impact guards transfer much of the blunt force impact to the hand, HexArmor IR-X Impact Guards deflect the impact of hazardous and damaging blows before they ever reach your hand.

HexArmor IR-X™ Impact Guards cover the entire back of the hand, including the knuckles and fingers where the majority of impacts occur.

HexArmor IR-X Impact Guards are 30% taller than competitive impact guards, creating an even greater barrier between your hand and impact injuries.

While SuperFabric™ works as the first line of defense against cuts, punctures and tears, HexArmor’s new impact shielding materials protect against serious and painful impact injuries.

THE GRIP YOU NEED TO WORK EFFICIENTLY, EFFECTIVELY AND SAFELY

In the oil and gas industry, maintaining grip is a constant challenge because of the constant presence of lubricating fluids, friction reducers, grease, oil-based muds and honey oils. When tools and pipes become covered with fluids, surfaces become slick. This can lead to hand fatigue, strains and sprains from the increased effort required to maintain grip. Eventually, poor grip can lead to lower productivity and increased potential for injury and accidents.

Because different applications have different grip challenges, HexArmor developed a complete line of gloves to meet the technical challenges for maintaining grip in oil and gas applications.
