Description
Pyramex GL602C3 Cut-Resistant A2 Micro-Foam Nitrile Gloves combine a 13-gauge HPPE liner with an oil-absorbing coating for cut resistance and improved grip. Their tear- and abrasion-resistant construction makes them a practical option for hands-on material handling.
When handling oily components, wearers benefit from foam nitrile that absorbs oil to increase grip. The additional foam coating acts like a sponge to enhance gripping power, while the cut-resistant HPPE liner adds protection for tasks suited to the gloves' listed performance ratings.

Latex allergy warning: The wrist cuff contains latex, which may cause allergic reactions. These gloves should not be used by individuals with a known latex allergy or those who develop signs of hypersensitivity.
Cleaning and Care
- Wash in warm water at 30–40°C (86–104°F).
- Use mild detergent.
- Use a short wash cycle of 5–10 minutes.
- Tumble dry on low at a maximum of 60°C (140°F).
Chemicals and sharp-edged objects should not be used to clean the gloves. Cleaning can alter the gloves' performance levels.
Standards
The CE EN388 standard evaluates abrasion, cut, tear, and puncture resistance. Abrasion ratings reflect the cycles required to wear through a sample; circular blade cut ratings reflect the cycles required to cut through a sample at a constant speed. Tear and puncture ratings reflect the force required to tear or pierce a sample, with puncture testing using a standard-sized point.
ANSI cut ratings range from A1 through A9 and are based on the weight required to cut through the material. The GL602C3 is listed with an A2 cut rating.
