Why the ProFlex 7001 PU Palm suits precision and touchscreen work
Some jobs need cut protection and the ability to feel a small part or tap a touchscreen — assembly benches, electronics lines, QC inspection. The 7001 PU Palm is tuned for that: an A2 cut glove with a smooth polyurethane palm that gives the softest contact and highest tactile sensitivity, plus touchscreen-compatible fingertips so workers keep the gloves on through scanning and data entry. As cut-resistant gloves go, this is the precision-dexterity pick, and the cut-resistant gloves guide and the cut levels explained guide put the A2 rating in context. It protects lightly and lets fingers still feel and tap.
Safety first: match the cut level to the hazard — this glove documents A2, so verify it against your hand hazard assessment. A cut-resistant glove resists cuts, not chemicals: for a chemical splash hazard use chemical-resistant gloves rated for the specific chemical, not a PU-coated cut glove. A cut glove reduces laceration risk but does not eliminate it — combine the right level with guards, safe blade handling and training, and retire gloves once the liner is cut.
What the Ergodyne ProFlex 7001 PU Palm listing documents
From the published specs: ANSI/ISEA 105 A2 cut resistance; a smooth polyurethane palm for maximum tactility; touchscreen-compatible fingertips; and a lightweight knit shell. These are true A2 cut-resistant gloves and touchscreen work gloves credentials as smooth PU palm gloves. Confirm the cut level, coating and size on the listing.
How the ProFlex 7001 PU Palm compares to other cut gloves
For the nitrile-coated 7001 variant, the ProFlex 7001 nitrile-coated; for a general foam-nitrile handling glove, the ProFlex 7000 microfiber; for a hi-vis A2 cut glove, the ProFlex 7021; for a foam-nitrile Ansell cut glove, the Ansell HyFlex 11-561; and for a value cut glove, the Dex Fit Cru553. The best cut-resistant gloves guide ranks the field.
Choosing the right cut level and coating
Match the cut level, coating and format to the task. Browse the cut-resistant gloves, mechanics gloves, impact-resistant gloves, and hand protection collections; and read the nitrile vs PU coating guide, the cut vs impact guide, and the ANSI/ISEA 138 impact standard guide for how the ratings work.
Where it fits by job and crew orders
The 7001 PU Palm suits precision assembly, electronics, quality control and any line that mixes light cut hazards with touchscreen and small-parts handling — see the mechanics gloves guide and the material-handling gloves collection for adjacent tasks, and step up to a higher cut level where the hazard assessment calls for it. The smooth PU palm is what makes this glove work on a bench: it keeps enough feel for a worker to seat a fastener, read a surface flaw or orient a small component by touch, which coarser sandy and foam coatings sacrifice for grip. The touchscreen fingertips remove the constant on-and-off that erodes compliance whenever a job requires scanning a barcode or tapping an HMI screen. Confirm the cut level, coating and size on the listing, and retire the gloves once the liner is cut.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Ergodyne ProFlex 7001 PU Palm?
An ANSI/ISEA 105 A2 cut-resistant glove with a smooth polyurethane (PU) palm coating and touchscreen-compatible fingertips, for precision assembly, electronics, and quality-control work where cut protection and fingertip dexterity are both required.
How is it different from the 7001 nitrile-coated glove?
This is the smooth-PU-palm touchscreen variant; the ProFlex 7001 nitrile-coated glove is a separate listing with a nitrile grip. Choose the PU palm for maximum tactile sensitivity and touchscreen use. Confirm the variant on the listing.
What cut level is it?
ANSI/ISEA 105-2016 Level A2 - light cut protection above the general-work level, appropriate for precision components and light fabrication. Confirm the cut level on the listing.
Does it work with touchscreens?
Yes - the listing states touchscreen-compatible fingertips, so workers can use scanners, tablets and HMI touchscreens without removing the gloves. Confirm the touchscreen feature on the listing.
Why a smooth PU palm?
Smooth polyurethane gives the softest contact surface and highest tactile sensitivity, so a worker can feel small parts and orient precision components by touch - where sandy or foam coatings maximize grip instead.
Is it chemical-resistant?
No - the PU palm coating is for grip and tactility, not chemical protection. For a chemical splash hazard use chemical-resistant gloves rated for the specific chemical. Confirm your hazard before selecting.
Who uses the 7001 PU palm?
Precision assembly, electronics work, quality-control inspection and manufacturing that mixes light cut hazards with touchscreen and small-parts handling. Confirm your cut hazard with a hand hazard assessment.
Is A2 enough cut protection?
A2 suits light-to-mid cut hazards; higher-force sharp-edge work needs A4 to A9. Match the level to the materials handled, and step up if your hazard assessment documents a higher cut force.
What sizes are available?
Confirm the size range and availability on the product listing before ordering for a crew; a cut glove must fit snugly to protect and stay dexterous.
How do I care for them?
Follow the manufacturer's laundering guidance, inspect the coating and shell for cuts or wear, and retire the gloves when the liner is compromised, since a damaged cut glove no longer protects as rated.
Do cut gloves replace safe work practices?
No - a cut-resistant glove reduces laceration risk but does not eliminate it. Combine the right cut level with guards, safe blade handling and training. Confirm your program's requirements.
How do I order for a crew?
Quantity purchasing runs through a free Amazon Business account - volume pricing, PO numbers at checkout, and tax-exempt eligibility for qualifying organizations. The bulk-ordering walkthrough is linked in our site footer.
