A cut resistant hydrophobic glove includes a main body portion having a front side and a rear side, the main body portion enclosing the palm and back of a user's hand, finger portions and a thumb portion. The main body portion, the finger portions and the thumb portion are each knitted as a single layer of material formed from a yarn that is a composite yarn having a core constructed of one or more core filaments and a sheath constructed of two or more filaments. At least one of the core filaments is a formed from a high performance material having cut resistant properties and at least one of the sheath filaments is formed from a material exhibiting hydrophobic characteristics. A cut resistant hydrophobic sleeve and a yarn for making the glove and sleeve are disclosed.

Disclosed is a dipping composite material for enhancing the cut resistance of chemical-resistant gloves, wherein an additive is added to a latex, and the additive is a metal oxide and/or silica and/or glass fiber and/or basalt fiber and/or aramid fiber. The present invention improves the formula of a dipping layer such that the dipping layer has the cut resistance, which can significantly improve the cut resistant level of gloves.

A glove has a protective member in the thumb-crotch region and includes a textured outer surface. The protective member is configured to protected against slicing done by sharp objects. The textured outer surface enables grip ability in greasy environments. The textured outer surface may be formed via a foaming process during manufacture of the glove. There may be a colored layer between an inner liner and the protective member that establishes a color splash effect in the event that a portion of the glove ruptures or fails.

A glove, including an 18 gauge knitted liner, a foamed nitrile coating disposed on at least a portion of the knitted liner; and a plurality of cavities disposed on a surface and throughout the foamed nitrile coating, wherein the glove exhibits an EN level 4 abrasion resistance and methods of making the glove are disclosed.

A glove comprising cut-resistant fibers, the glove comprising a glove body and a cuff, the cuff further defining an opening in the glove and having a circumferential inner surface that faces a body when worn, the cuff being further provided with a plurality of magnetic pieces, wherein when the glove is not being worn, the magnetic pieces compress the cuff and close the opening.

An aspect of the present invention is a glove including a glove main body knitted with a yarn made of fiber, the glove main body including: a main body portion; five finger-receiving portions each having a bottomed cylindrical shape; and a cylindrical cuff portion, wherein the main body portion is formed into a bag shape to cover a palm and a dorsal side of a wearer's hand, the five finger-receiving portions extend from the main body portion to cover each of a first finger to a fifth finger of the wearer, and the cuff portion extends in a direction opposite to the five finger-receiving portions, in at least a part of a palm part, the main body portion has a repeating structure of: a strip-shaped electrically conductive part containing an electrically conductive yarn; and a strip-shaped electrically non-conductive part not containing the electrically conductive yarn, the main body portion has unevenness on a front face thereof, in which the electrically conductive part is a concave portion and the electrically non-conductive part is a convex portion, the electrically conductive part consists of an electrically conductive composite yarn including: the electrically conductive yarn; and a core yarn covered with the electrically conductive yarn, the electrically conductive yarn is disposed across the front face and a back face of the main body portion, and an elongation rate of the core yarn is no greater than 3%.

A safety glove having a protective member or insert extending around the fingertip of the safety glove is provided. The protective member may be positioned along the outer surface or the inner surface of the glove. Alternatively, the protective member may be integrally formed between two layers of glove material. The protective member terminates distally from an interphalangeal joint line to enable finger flexion in order to grasp an item, such as a slab of meat to be deskinned in a skinning machine. The glove may include a rough outer surface formed from thrice dipping the glove and allowing the glove to cure. Additionally, the glove may have a width near the wrist that is wider than the width near the palm to enable the glove to be rapidly removed (i.e., doffed) in an emergency event of the glove getting caught in a rotating blade on the skinning machine.

A thermal and cut resistant glove includes a main body portion that encloses the palm and back of a user's hand, finger portions and a thumb portion. The glove is knitted as a single layer of material formed from a yarn that is a composite yarn having a core constructed of one or more core filaments and a sheath constructed of two or more filaments. The glove exhibits a temperature differential of no more than about 1.3 degrees C. when the front or rear side of the glove is positioned between a refrigerated cold source and a thermocouple after a period of 15 minutes, exhibits a cut resistance of at least about 3500 grams when measured in accordance with ASTM Standard F2992-15, Standard Test Method for Measuring Cut Resistance of Materials Used in Protective Clothing with Tomodynamometer (TDM-100), exhibits an abrasion resistance of at least 2500 cycles when measured tested in accordance with ASTM Standard D3884-07, Standard Guide for Abrasion Resistance of Textile Fabrics, exhibits a time increase of no more than about 25 percent to perform a stated task when measured in accordance with ASTM Standard F2010-10, Standard Test Method for Evaluation of Glove Effects on Wearer Hand Dexterity.
