The MCR Safety PD5931L Predator Impact Gloves in Large are an industrial back-of-hand protection glove engineered for crews who take repeated knocks against pipe, fittings, valves, and steel. Molded thermoplastic rubber (TPR) protectors run across the knuckles, fingers, and back of the hand to absorb and deflect impact forces, while the coated palm keeps a secure hold on greasy, wet, or awkward loads.

Honest Limits

Honest limits: glove ratings are per-hazard, not general toughness. Cut, puncture, abrasion, chemical, and thermal performance are separate tests, and this glove protects only on the axes its marking actually covers. Inspect for breaches and retire on damage — degraded gloves protect on paper only.

Why trust WC Safety

WC Safety is an independent, affiliate-supported review site. It is not a retailer: it holds no inventory, takes no orders, and earns only from qualifying purchases through clearly marked links — which never changes what a product is rated to do. Standards language is taken from the regulation text directly, and ratings are reported as the manufacturer publishes them. We run no laboratory and perform no testing of our own. Where published sources disagree, we say so and plan on the conservative figure rather than the flattering one.

Our methodology

Figures come from the regulation and the published specification, in that order. Derated numbers are calculated, not estimated. Nothing here is presented as a measured result, because we measure nothing.
