SmartShell BKCR4499 comprises an ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) with ANSI cut level A5 protection on the palms.
Its strength-to-weight ratio is 8 to 15 times higher than steel. Next, thermoplastic rubber (TPR) padding is sonically welded to the back of the glove for protection from contusions, smash injuries, object strikes, pinch-point injuries to the tips of each finger, and other impact hazards.
The black nitrile palm coating offers wet grip and the lime green shell color meets the requirements of American National Standard (ANSI/ISEA 107-2010) for high-visibility safety apparel.
“When designing SmartShell, our goal was to create the ultimate combination of safety and comfort in a protective glove,” said Jeff Cullman, vice president of sales for Brass Knuckle Protection.
“We partnered with our distributors to collect a list of ‘must haves’ and set out to engineer a glove that brings together the right measures of impact protection, cut protection, and ergonomics. It really is a next-generation type of glove. Once people try it, they’re immediately impressed by how well all of its features perform in real world environments.”
SmartShell was engineered to excel in a variety of industries where impact protection, cut protection, and a perfect fit are all priorities. It is ideal for assembly, agriculture, construction, forestry and logging, heavy equipment, machine operation, manufacturing, oil and gas and other petrol-based refining, mining, rigging, and other heavy-duty work environments.
