MCR Safety PD6954 Predator Impact Gloves, 18-Gauge 360 Cut + Touchscreen Overview
The MCR Safety PD6954 Predator impact gloves are a touchscreen-friendly coated-knit mechanics glove built for cut and impact protection. An 18-gauge seamless HyperMax HPPE shell delivers 360-degree cut protection, a black foam-nitrile palm and finger coating grips in wet or dry conditions, and patented PD6 tire-tread TPR on the back guards against impact. A hook-and-loop cuff tunes the fit and a nitrile-dipped reinforced thumb crotch adds durability.
As 18-gauge HyperMax gloves, the PD6954 is the most dexterous of the knit Predators: the thin HPPE shell carries 360-degree cut protection, the foam nitrile coated gloves palm grips securely, and as touchscreen impact gloves they keep you on your phone or tablet without removing them. That combination makes these 360 cut resistant gloves a strong pick for detailed, device-heavy work.
Like any item in cut-resistant gloves, match the glove to the hazard. This is a cut-and-impact glove, not chemical or heat PPE. Compare this impact-resistant glove and mechanics glove against other tiers in our guides, and browse material-handling gloves before ordering.
What These Predator Gloves Are Built For
| Use case | Fit | Buyer guidance |
|---|---|---|
| Dexterity + touchscreen work | Purpose-built | 18-gauge knit and touchscreen fingertips suit device-heavy tasks. |
| 360-degree cut hazards | Strong | HyperMax HPPE shell protects palm and back; confirm level on datasheet. |
| Back-of-hand impact | Strong | Patented PD6 tire-tread TPR guards the back of the hand. |
| Wet or oily grip | Strong | Foam-nitrile palm grips in wet and dry conditions. |
| Chemical or heat hazards | 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 — laceration and back-of-hand impact — 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 knit, foam-nitrile coating, TPR, cuff, and seams 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.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- 18-gauge HyperMax shell with 360-degree cut protection
- Foam-nitrile palm and finger coating for wet or dry grip
- Touchscreen friendly for phone and tablet use
- Patented PD6 tire-tread TPR back-of-hand impact
- Adjustable hook-and-loop cuff; nitrile-dipped thumb crotch
Cons
- Exact ANSI cut and impact levels not published — confirm on MCR's datasheet
- No D3O palm padding — use a D3O Predator for that
- Thin 18-gauge knit is less rugged than leather for heavy abrasion
- Confirm the size on this listing before ordering
How It Compares
The PD6954 is the 18-gauge, foam-nitrile, touchscreen Predator. Weigh it against its knit siblings before ordering:
| Model | Shell | Palm coating | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| PD6954 (this page) | 18-ga HyperMax, 360 cut | Foam nitrile, touchscreen | Dexterity, device use, wet grip |
| PD6952 | 13-ga HyperMax | Bi-polymer | Published A7 cut, Level 2 impact |
| PD6951 | 13-ga HyperMax | Polyurethane | Dexterous PU-coated cut knit |
Choose the PD6954 for an 18-gauge touchscreen glove with 360-degree cut and a foam-nitrile grip, the PD6952 for published A7 cut and Level 2 impact, or the PD6951 for a PU-coated cut knit. Compare in our best cut-resistant gloves guide and the best cut gloves for mechanics.

Frequently Asked Questions
What protection does the MCR PD6954 offer?
Cut and impact: an 18-gauge seamless HyperMax HPPE shell for 360-degree cut protection, a foam-nitrile palm and finger coating for grip, and patented PD6 tire-tread TPR on the back for impact protection. It is not chemical or heat protection.
What ANSI cut level is the PD6954?
MCR describes it as 360-degree cut protection from an 18-gauge HyperMax HPPE shell but does not publish a specific ANSI/ISEA 105 level in the listing title, so we do not print a level we cannot verify for this SKU. Confirm the exact level on MCR's datasheet against your cut hazard.
What impact level does it carry?
Patented PD6 tire-tread TPR on the back provides impact protection, but the exact ANSI/ISEA 138 level is not published for this SKU. Confirm the impact level on MCR's datasheet before relying on it for a specific hazard.
Is the PD6954 touchscreen friendly?
Yes. MCR lists the PD6954 as touchscreen friendly, so you can use a phone or tablet without removing the gloves. The foam-nitrile coating on the palm and fingers supports the touchscreen use while keeping grip.
What is the palm coating on the PD6954?
A black foam-nitrile palm and finger coating. Foam nitrile grips well in both wet and dry conditions and is the main coating difference from the PD6951 (polyurethane palm) and the PD6952 (bi-polymer palm).
What does the 18-gauge shell mean?
Gauge describes knit fineness; an 18-gauge HyperMax HPPE shell is thinner and more form-fitting than a 13-gauge knit, which improves dexterity and touchscreen use while still carrying 360-degree cut protection around the hand.
How does the cuff work?
The PD6954 uses a hook-and-loop cuff, so you can adjust and secure the fit at the wrist. That helps keep the glove in place and lets you tune the closure for comfort over a shirt cuff or bare wrist.
How does the PD6954 differ from the PD6951 and PD6952?
All three are HyperMax Predators with tire-tread TPR, but the PD6954 is an 18-gauge, 360-degree-cut, touchscreen glove with a foam-nitrile palm and a hook-and-loop cuff, while the PD6951 uses a polyurethane palm and the PD6952 uses a bi-polymer palm on a 13-gauge shell.
Does the PD6954 have D3O padding?
No. Its impact protection comes from the tire-tread TPR on the back, not a D3O padded palm. If you want D3O palm impact and vibration reduction, look at a D3O-padded Predator such as the PD2907 or PD2910.
What size is this listing?
MCR Safety offers the PD6954 in several sizes as separate part numbers; confirm the size on this listing before ordering. A correct fit matters for dexterity and touchscreen use, so measure your hand and check the size shown.
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.
When should I replace the PD6954?
Replace them when the knit or foam-nitrile coating wears through, the HyperMax shell is cut or frayed, the tire-tread TPR cracks or detaches, the hook-and-loop stops holding, or the seams give way. Damaged gloves no longer deliver their cut or impact protection.
