Box Cutter Gloves

Box cutter gloves are designed to provide high cut resistance, enhancing your safety when using box cutters or other sharp tools. They help to prevent accidents and injuries, giving you confidence during tasks that involve potential hazards.

All gloves in this category are designed to be cut-resistant, but the level of resistance varies. Gloves that are rated as ANSI A1 offer the lowest level of protection, whereas A9 is the highest.

To choose the right size, measure your hand circumference at its widest point – usually around the knuckles, excluding the thumb. Compare this measurement to the sizing chart provided by the manufacturer. A well-fitting glove should not be too tight, as this can restrict movement, but neither should it be too loose, which can reduce control and increase the risk of accidents.

Most box-cutter gloves can be cleaned, but the method will depend on the material and manufacturer’s instructions. Some may be machine washable, while others may need to be cleaned by hand. Always check the care instructions to ensure you don’t inadvertently damage the gloves’ protective properties.

The replacement frequency will depend on how often you use the gloves and the wear and tear they undergo. Just like any other working gloves, If you notice any cuts, tears, or significant wear on the gloves, especially in the palm area, it’s time to replace them. Regular inspection is key to ensuring ongoing protection.

Some box-cutter gloves also provide puncture resistance, but not all do. If you need puncture resistance, look for gloves specifically rated for this. Remember, puncture-resistant gloves are not puncture-proof, so always use caution when handling sharp objects.
