- What it is. These touchscreen work gloves are the Ansell HyFlex 11-318, an uncoated 18-gauge knit glove built with Dyneema Diamond Technology fiber. It targets jobs that mix cut risk with fine handling, so it carries ANSI/ISEA 105-2024 Cut Level A2 and an EN ISO Level B rating while staying thin enough to keep fingertip feel. LabPro sells it in sizes 6 through 11, either as a single pair or as a case of 12 bags holding 144 pairs. Ansell lists the glove as latex-free.
- Why it matters. Cut protection usually costs feel, which is why workers peel gloves off to tap a tablet, scan a part, or pick up a small fastener. Ansell positions the 11-318 as barehand-like comfort with cut protection, and its touchscreen capability lets inspection and data entry continue with the glove on. The silicone-free design also helps keep contaminants off metal surfaces before painting or finishing, which suits lines where surface defects mean rework. Ansell also lists the knit as low linting.
- How it performs. The EN 388 rating (2016 plus A1:2018) is XX4XB, which reads as tear resistance level 4 and ISO cut level B, with abrasion, blade cut, and puncture not tested. Spandex reinforcement in the palm and knuckle areas gives a cushioned, flexible fit, and the lightweight fabric is meant for all-day wear with less hand fatigue. Length runs from 212 to 260 mm (8.35 to 10.24 inches) depending on the size you choose. Ansell also lists the glove as antistatic under EN 1149 and DMF-free.
- Materials and packing. The shell blends Dyneema fiber with elastane and nylon in grey, and the palm is uncoated, so no dipped layer adds bulk. OEKO-TEX certification confirms the knit is free of harmful substances, and LabPro lists the glove as CE Category II, EN ISO 21420:2020, and REACH compliant. SKUs ending in -EA are a single pair, while the plain SKUs are cases of 12 bags, 144 pairs in total.
Applications / Common Uses
- Handling sharp or rough edges. The A2 and EN ISO B cut rating gives a layer against sheet edges and burrs without the bulk of a coated glove.
- Assembly and inspection of components. The 18-gauge knit and touchscreen capability let workers feel small parts and operate a screen without changing gloves.
- Inspection of parts and equipment. Spandex reinforcement at the palm and knuckles keeps the glove flexible through repeated gripping and checking.
- Body surface checking, marking, and touch-ups. Because the glove is silicone-free, it can be worn on metal surfaces headed for painting or finishing.
- General maintenance tasks. The lightweight fabric and barehand-like feel reduce hand fatigue during long maintenance shifts.
