MCR Safety MC503 UltraTech Impact Gloves, Goatskin Dyneema (Large) Overview
The MCR Safety MC503 UltraTech impact gloves are a multi-task mechanics glove that pairs cut resistance with back-of-hand impact protection. A premium goatskin leather palm, lined with Dyneema Diamond Technology fiber, delivers cut resistance with grip, while a two-way hi-vis orange back with an exclusive TPR design guards the back of the hand. A coated DuPont Kevlar-reinforced thumb crotch adds durability where gloves wear first. This listing is the large size (MC503L).
As UltraTech multi-task gloves, the appeal is combining protections without losing feel: the Dyneema Diamond cut gloves liner stays thin and cool behind the leather, so the goatskin palm impact gloves keep good dexterity for tools and parts. The two-way hi-vis TPR impact mechanics gloves back, open cuff with a pull tab, and a wrist ID panel round out a glove built for mixed handling tasks.
Like any item in impact-resistant gloves, match the glove to the hazard. This is a cut-and-impact glove, but the exact ANSI cut and impact levels are not in the title, so confirm both on MCR's datasheet; it is not chemical or heat PPE. Compare this cut-resistant glove and mechanics glove against other tiers in our guides, and browse material-handling gloves before ordering.
What These UltraTech Gloves Are Built For
| Use case | Fit | Buyer guidance |
|---|---|---|
| Mixed cut and impact handling | Purpose-built | Dyneema cut liner plus a TPR impact back cover both hazards. |
| Dexterity with cut protection | Strong | Goatskin palm and a thin Dyneema liner keep good tactile feel. |
| High-wear thumb-crotch tasks | Reinforced | Coated Kevlar thumb crotch adds life where gloves fail first. |
| Highest cut hazards (heavy glass) | Verify level | Confirm the ANSI cut level on the datasheet and step up if needed. |
| Chemical or heat exposure | Not suitable | Mechanical PPE only; use chemical- or heat-rated gloves instead. |
Hand protection has to match the specific hazard. These are cut- and impact-resistant gloves for mechanical hazards β laceration and back-of-hand impact β not for every risk: they are not rated for chemicals, so for a chemical splash hazard use chemical-resistant gloves selected for the substance, and use heat-rated gloves for hot work. Confirm the ANSI/ISEA 105 cut level and the ANSI/ISEA 138 impact level against your task, size the glove correctly for dexterity, inspect the palm, Dyneema liner, TPR back, and thumb crotch before each use, and replace the gloves once any layer is cut, worn, or cracked. Compare tiers in cut vs impact gloves and the ANSI/ISEA 138 impact standard.

How It Compares
The MC503 is a leather-palm multi-task cut-and-impact glove. Weigh it against the alternatives before ordering:
| Option | Palm | Cut liner | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| MC503 (this page) | Goatskin leather | Dyneema Diamond | Cut plus impact with leather grip |
| Coated HPPE impact knit | Nitrile/foam coated | HPPE | Washable knit with impact back |
| Leather impact driver | Goatskin, no cut liner | None | Impact and abrasion, no cut hazard |
Choose the MC503 for cut and impact with a leather palm, a coated HPPE knit for a washable build, or a plain leather impact glove where there is no cut hazard. Compare in our best impact-resistant gloves guide and the wider impact glove range.

Frequently Asked Questions
What protection does the MCR MC503 offer?
Two mechanical protections: cut resistance from a goatskin palm lined with Dyneema Diamond Technology fiber, and back-of-hand impact protection from a two-way hi-vis orange back with an exclusive TPR design. The thumb crotch is reinforced with coated DuPont Kevlar. It is not chemical or heat protection.
What is Dyneema Diamond Technology?
Dyneema Diamond is a high-strength ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene fiber used as a cut-resistant liner. It delivers cut protection while staying thin and cool, so the goatskin palm keeps its dexterity. Confirm the exact ANSI cut level for the MC503 on MCR's datasheet.
What ANSI cut level is the MC503?
The exact ANSI/ISEA 105 cut level is not stated in this listing's title, so we do not publish a level we cannot verify for this SKU. The Dyneema Diamond liner provides cut resistance; confirm the specific level on MCR's datasheet against your cut hazard.
What impact protection does it have?
A two-way hi-vis orange back with an exclusive TPR design covers the back of the hand for impact protection. The exact ANSI/ISEA 138 impact level is not in the title, so confirm it on MCR's datasheet before relying on it for a specific hazard.
Why is the palm goatskin instead of a coated knit?
A goatskin leather palm gives durable grip and abrasion resistance with good tactile feel, and the Dyneema liner sits behind it for cut protection. This differs from coated HPPE knit gloves, which use a nitrile or foam palm coating instead of leather.
What is the reinforced thumb crotch for?
The thumb crotch is a high-stress, high-wear area where gloves often fail first. The MC503 reinforces it with coated DuPont Kevlar fiber to add durability and protection exactly where the thumb and forefinger meet.
What size is this listing?
This is the large size (MC503L). MCR Safety offers the MC503 in additional sizes as separate part numbers. A correct glove fit matters for dexterity and protection, so measure your hand and confirm the size before ordering.
What is the open cuff and pull tab for?
The open cuff slips on and off quickly, and the pull tab helps you don the glove securely and snugly. An ID panel on the wrist lets a crew label gloves to individuals, which supports hygiene and inventory in shared environments.
Can I use these gloves for chemical handling?
No. These are cut and impact mechanics gloves, not chemical protection. For chemical exposure, use chemical-resistant gloves rated for the specific substance. Match the glove to the actual hazard.
Is the MC503 good for handling glass or sharp metal?
The Dyneema Diamond liner is designed for cut resistance, which helps with sharp edges, but match the cut level to the hazard. Confirm the ANSI cut level on MCR's datasheet, and step up to a higher level for heavy glass or sheet-metal handling if needed.
How do I care for the MC503?
Follow MCR's care guidance. Keep the leather palm dry where possible and air dry away from direct heat if it gets wet. Inspect the palm, Dyneema liner, TPR back, thumb crotch, and seams for wear, and replace the gloves when protection is compromised.
When should I replace the MC503?
Replace them when the goatskin palm is cut through or worn thin, the Dyneema liner is exposed or frayed, the TPR back is cracked or detached, the thumb crotch fails, or the seams give way. Damaged gloves no longer deliver their rated cut or impact protection.
