A776 - PW3 Mechanic 160 Leather Palm Cold Glove

The Portwest A673 puts Cut Level F performance into an 18-gauge glove with a nitrile foam palm. It gives buyers a fine-knit option to compare when a general handling glove’s cut rating is insufficient for the task. A reinforced thumb-to-forefinger area covers a frequent gripping wear point, while the glove’s back remains uncoated. Black sizes XS to XXL are listed here. The A673 also supports many touchscreen devices, which can help when work involves checking a handheld screen between handling operations. Compare fit, coating and the full EN 388 code with other Cut F models before buying for a team. A laboratory cut rating does not make the glove cut-proof or establish chemical protection.

Portwest A674 gloves use a reinforced leather palm over a 13-gauge cut-resistant liner. The leather contact surface distinguishes this model from PU- and nitrile-coated gloves, giving buyers another construction to assess for edged workpieces and repeated palm contact. Reinforcement extends to the palm and forefinger, with a reflective label on the glove. Black gloves are listed in sizes XS to XXL. The A674 has documented Cut Level F and ANSI A7 performance, plus an EN 407 contact-heat rating. Check those results against the actual task, including exposure time and material temperature, before choosing it for warm components. Select the fit carefully and trial the leather palm on your workpieces; neither cut resistance nor heat testing removes the need for suitable handling controls.

Portwest A661 gloves use a nitrile foam palm over an 18-gauge cut-resistant liner. They offer a coating alternative to the PU-coated A660 when buyers are comparing gloves for wet and dry handling. The liner combines HPPE, nylon and steel fibre, with reinforcement at the thumb-to-forefinger area where repeated gripping can concentrate wear. This listing offers black gloves in sizes XS to XXL. Cut Level E and ANSI A5 performance are documented for the model, alongside compatibility with many touchscreen devices. Test the glove on your actual workpieces and screens before standardising it across a team. The foam palm supports handling; it does not turn an open-backed glove into a waterproof or chemical-resistant protective glove.

Portwest A771 gloves have reinforced padded palms and additional knuckle padding, giving buyers a mechanic-style option to compare against thin knitted handling gloves. The construction uses polyurethane, nylon and elastic, with documented EN 388 performance of 2X22B. Consider both the fit and padded contact areas when assessing it for repeated tool or component handling. Astral Hygiene lists the black/yellow model in sizes S to XXL. It supports use with many touchscreen devices, so test your team’s screens with the selected size during a workplace trial. Padding is a construction feature rather than proof of protection against every impact or vibration exposure. Check the supplied markings and instructions against the task before deciding whether this is the right glove.
