A9

Product Introduction: A9 is the highest ANSI cut level — maximum cut protection for the most extreme sharp-edge environments. Our A9 gloves use an ultra-dense coated high-performance yarn construction, with multiple layers of wrapped cut filaments to resist the highest cutting forces. Despite the extreme protection rating, the coated wrapping process produces a smooth liner that avoids the harsh, wire-like feel of steel-mesh alternatives — making extended wear far more tolerable for workers.
ANSI & EN388 Ratings.
• ANSI/ISEA 105: Level A9 — withstands 6,000+ grams of cutting load (the highest ANSI cut category).
• EN388:2016: Cut Level 5 (Coup test, maximum) / TDM Letter F and beyond — ≥ 30 Newtons, with actual performance well above the F-level threshold.
Applications: Extreme sharp-metal handling, heavy stamping and die-set operations, ballistic and armor component assembly, aerospace high-strength materials, heavy glass and ceramic handling, industrial knife manufacturing and sharpening, high-risk recycling and waste processing with extreme sharp debris, and specialized food processing involving heavy boning and band-saw operations.
