MCR Safety 92743LT CutPro A8 Cut-Resistant Gloves (Crinkle Latex) Overview
The MCR Safety 92743LT CutPro is built for jobs where blades, sheet metal, and broken glass are part of the day. It carries an ANSI/ISEA 105 cut level A8 rating β near the top of the nine-level scale β so it sits well above general-purpose material-handling gloves and is aimed squarely at high-laceration tasks. If you need to compare this rating against the rest of the family, our ANSI/ISEA 105 cut levels explained guide breaks down what A1 through A9 actually mean on the bench test. These CutPro A8 gloves are crinkle latex coated gloves β ANSI A8 cut gloves with a textured latex palm for grip. As sharp edge handling gloves and everyday latex palm work gloves, they suit glass, sheet-metal, and metal-stamping lines.
The crinkle-latex palm coating is the working surface here: latex grips aggressively in dry and lightly oily conditions, and the crinkle finish channels away surface film so parts don't slip. Note this is an industrial coated work glove β the latex is a palm dip for grip and abrasion, not a disposable exam glove, so it is not food-safe or medical-rated. Shop the full range of cut-resistant gloves if you need a different cut level or coating, and use our how to choose cut-resistant gloves by ANSI level walkthrough to match the rating to your hazard.
What These A8 Cut-Resistant Gloves Are Built For
| Task | Fit | Buyer guidance |
|---|---|---|
| Glass handling & cutting | Strong | A8 cut rating plus crinkle-latex grip suits sheet-glass edges and trim lines. |
| Metal stamping & fabrication | Strong | High cut level protects against sheet-metal burrs and stamped-part edges. |
| Blade & knife work | Strong | Near-top A8 laceration resistance for utility blades and slitting tasks. |
| General assembly / parts handling | Good | Capable but heavier than needed; a lower-level glove may dexterity-match better. |
| Wet or chemical immersion | Limited | Latex palm aids grip but this is not a chemical-resistant glove; see chemical-rated options. |
| High-heat or welding | Not suited | No heat rating claimed; use a dedicated heat-resistant glove instead. |
Cut and impact gloves reduce injury risk but do not make a task safe. Match the ANSI/ISEA 105 cut level (A1βA9) and ANSI/ISEA 138 impact level to the real hazard, inspect each pair for wear before use, and follow your site's hand-protection program. This glove has a natural-rubber latex coating, so anyone with a latex allergy should pick a nitrile- or PU-coated cut glove instead. No glove is cut-proof or puncture-proof β keep hands clear of moving blades and pinch points. See ANSI/ISEA 105 cut levels explained.
Pros & Cons
- ANSI/ISEA 105 cut level A8 β among the highest laceration ratings available
- Crinkle-latex palm grips well on dry and lightly oily sharp parts
- Purpose-built for glass, sheet metal, and blade work
- Coated shell adds abrasion resistance over a bare knit
- Backed by MCR Safety's established CutPro industrial line
- Industrial coated glove β not food-safe or medical/exam rated
- No published heat or chemical-immersion rating
- High cut level can mean less fingertip dexterity than a lighter A2-A3 glove
- Latex coating may not suit users with latex sensitivities
How It Compares
Within MCR's CutPro line, the 92743LT sits at the high end of cut protection. The micro-foam nitrile cut-resistant gloves in the 92785NF series carry a lower A5 rating and a foam-nitrile palm β lighter and more dexterous for general assembly, but less laceration resistance than this A8 glove. Step up further and MCR's Predator A9 needle-resist styles like the MCR Safety PD4900 Predator A9 hi-vis needle-resist glove add puncture defense for waste and recycling. Choose the 92743LT when latex grip on sharp dry parts matters and A8 cut is the right tier; confirm coatings differ by checking the EN 388 glove standard explained reference.

Frequently Asked Questions
What cut level is the MCR Safety 92743LT?
It is rated ANSI/ISEA 105 cut level A8, the second-highest tier on the A1-A9 scale, indicating very high resistance to laceration from sharp edges. See our ANSI/ISEA 105 cut levels explained guide for how A8 compares to other ratings.
Is this a food-safe or medical exam glove?
No. The 92743LT is an industrial cut-resistant work glove with a latex palm coating for grip and abrasion. It is not food-safe, sterile, or medical/exam-rated. For disposable exam-type gloves, look at a different product category.
What is the latex used for on this glove?
The latex is a crinkle palm coating that provides aggressive grip on dry and lightly oily parts and adds abrasion resistance. It is a dip on the working surface, not a full disposable latex glove.
What tasks is the 92743LT best for?
It is built for high-laceration work: glass handling and cutting, sheet-metal and stamping work, and utility-blade tasks. The A8 cut rating and grippy latex palm target sharp-edge environments.
Does this glove have a heat or flame rating?
No heat or flame rating is published for the 92743LT, so it should not be used for high-temperature or welding work. Choose a dedicated heat-resistant glove for those tasks.
Is the 92743LT chemical-resistant?
It is not rated for chemical immersion. The latex palm aids grip but this is a cut glove, not a chemical-resistant glove. For solvent or chemical handling, select a chemical-resistant glove instead.
How does A8 compare to A5 or A9 gloves?
A8 offers more laceration resistance than an A5 glove and slightly less than an A9. Higher levels withstand more cutting force but can reduce dexterity. Use our how-to guide to match the level to your hazard.
Will this glove fit work that needs fine dexterity?
High cut levels like A8 typically use thicker shells, so fingertip feel is reduced versus a lighter A2-A3 glove. For fine assembly, a lower-rated cut glove may be a better balance.
What size should I order?
Order to your normal industrial glove size; coated cut gloves should fit snugly without bunching at the fingertips. Check the glove size chart to confirm before purchasing.
Is this glove suitable for handling broken or sheet glass?
Yes. The A8 cut rating combined with the crinkle-latex grip makes it well suited to glass handling, trimming, and edge work where laceration risk is high.
Are there nitrile-coated alternatives in the CutPro line?
Yes. CutPro also offers nitrile-coated cut gloves such as the 92785NF series at a lower A5 cut level, which trade some cut protection for added dexterity. Browse the cut-resistant gloves collection to compare.
Does this glove offer puncture or needle resistance?
No needle-resist rating is claimed for the 92743LT. If you need puncture and needle protection, consider an A9 needle-resist style such as the MCR Safety PD4900 Predator instead.
