Ergodyne 7024 ProFlex PU Coated Cut-Resistant Gloves, A2

The Ergodyne ProFlex 7024 PU Coated Cut-Resistant Gloves provide ANSI/ISEA 105-2016 Level A2 cut resistance in a 13-gauge polyester-spandex shell with smooth polyurethane palm coating — delivering baseline cut protection with exceptional dexterity, tactile sensitivity, and touchscreen-capable fingertips for precision work, assembly, and light manufacturing operations where maintaining feel and finger control is as important as cut protection. The 7024's 13-gauge polyester-spandex blend shell is thinner and more conforming than heavier-knit cut-resistant constructions, providing the close hand fit needed for precision assembly, quality inspection, and parts handling where workers need to feel parts, fasteners, and surfaces through the glove. The smooth polyurethane palm coating provides the dry-condition grip enhancement that PU-coated gloves are known for — a thin, breathable film that adheres to smooth surfaces and parts better than bare fabric while maintaining the tactile sensitivity of the base shell. Touchscreen-compatible fingertips allow workers to operate smartphones, tablets, and touchscreen industrial controls without removing the glove — supporting the increasing role of mobile devices and touchscreen HMIs in modern manufacturing and field operations. Level A2 cut resistance addresses the broad category of general industrial cut hazard from rough edges, packaging materials, glass fiber, sheet goods, and general material handling where some cut protection above bare-hand operation is required but the high-force cut hazards of metalworking and glass operations are not present. For light manufacturing, assembly, quality control, and general material handling where dexterity and feel are the primary glove requirements alongside baseline cut protection, the 7024 provides the optimal balance.

Smooth PU Palm: Why PU Coating for Precision and Assembly Work

Cut-resistant glove palm coatings fall into several categories, each suited to different work environments. Sandy or rough-textured coatings (nitrile foam, sandy nitrile, sandy latex) provide high surface grip, particularly on oily surfaces — they are preferred for metalworking, automotive, and oil-wet environments. Smooth polyurethane coating is preferred for precision dry work: electronics assembly, quality control inspection, pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturing, light parts assembly, and packaging operations where tactile sensitivity and smooth-surface grip are more important than oil-wet grip enhancement. Smooth PU maintains the thin, form-fitting feel of the base shell — workers wearing the 7024 can feel part features, fastener threads, and surface textures through the glove in a way that thicker or textured coatings prevent. The breathable PU coating also keeps the hand cooler than rubber-based coatings in sustained-wear applications, supporting comfort through full production shifts. Touchscreen compatibility in the fingertips extends the utility of the 7024 to workers using mobile devices and touchscreen controls as part of their work processes — a practically important feature as digital tools become standard in assembly, inspection, and field service operations.

Compliance and Certifications

• ANSI/ISEA 105-2016 — Cut resistance Level A2
• OSHA 29 CFR 1910.138 — Hand protection requirements

Real-World Benefits

Thin smooth PU coating and 13g polyester-spandex shell deliver exceptional dexterity for precision assembly and inspection operations. Assembly workers handling small fasteners, electronics technicians manipulating components, and quality control inspectors feeling surface features through the glove all benefit from the 7024's thin, conforming construction — maintaining the tactile feedback required for precision work while providing Level A2 cut protection against incidental sharp-edge contact.

Touchscreen-compatible fingertips eliminate the workflow interruption of glove removal for mobile device and touchscreen HMI operation. Workers using smartphones for job documentation, tablet apps for assembly guidance, or touchscreen industrial control panels can operate these devices without removing the 7024 — maintaining hand protection continuity throughout the work process without the productivity loss of repeated glove removal and replacement.

Applications and Use Cases

• Light assembly and electronics manufacturing — 7024 for assembly workers handling PCBs, electronic components, and small precision parts where fine motor control and touchscreen operation alongside A2 cut protection are required
• Quality control and inspection — precision parts evaluation — smooth PU cut-resistant gloves for QC technicians performing tactile inspection of manufactured parts, surfaces, and assemblies
• Packaging, order fulfillment, and general material handling — A2 PU-coated gloves for warehouse, distribution, and packaging workers with general cut exposure from packaging materials, box cutting, and material handling alongside touchscreen device use

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 7024 appropriate for oily or wet conditions?

The 7024's smooth PU coating provides good dry-condition grip but is not optimized for oily or wet surfaces — smooth PU loses grip performance on oily metal parts and wet surfaces compared to sandy nitrile or foamed nitrile coatings designed for oil-wet grip. For metalworking operations with cutting oils, coolants, or greasy surfaces, specify a nitrile-coated cut-resistant glove instead. The 7024 is best matched to dry precision work, light assembly, and clean-room adjacent environments where its thin, tactile construction offers the best performance match.
