Editorial assessment by Steven Eaton, WC Safety editor, based on published Ergodyne specifications and category fit. We did not laboratory-test this product.
The Ergodyne ProFlex 7070 is an ANSI/ISEA 105 A7 nitrile-coated cut-resistant glove — one of the highest cut-protection levels — built for severe cut hazards like automotive stamping, scrap metal handling, glass manufacturing, and metal fabrication. The nitrile palm grips in dry and lightly oily conditions, and the high-performance liner keeps more dexterity than heavyweight leather.

Why the Ergodyne ProFlex 7070 handles the worst cut hazards
Some jobs generate cut forces that shrug off a mid-level glove — automotive stampings, jagged scrap, raw glass edges. The 7070 answers with an A7 liner, among the highest cut ratings there is, so it protects where A4 or A5 fall short. The nitrile palm grips dry and lightly oily parts without leather's bulk, and the high-performance yarn keeps the glove workable through a shift. As cut-resistant gloves go, this is the severe-hazard pick, and the best cut-resistant gloves guide and complete cut-glove guide cover how to match glove to task. It takes the edges lighter gloves can't.
Safety first: the 7070 is a cut-resistant glove, not a chemical glove — it is not rated for a chemical splash hazard. If your task involves solvents, degreasers, acids, or other chemicals, wear dedicated chemical-resistant gloves selected by breakthrough time, and see the chemical-resistant gloves guide. A7 is a lot of glove — use the ANSI A1-A9 cut-level guide to reserve it for severe hazards and drop to a lower level where dexterity matters. The A7 rating covers slicing cut forces, not punctures. Replace worn gloves.
What the Ergodyne ProFlex 7070 listing documents
From the published specs: ANSI/ISEA 105 A7 cut resistance; a nitrile palm coating for dry and lightly oily grip; a high-performance cut-resistant liner; and a lightweight design that keeps dexterity versus leather. These are true a7 cut resistant gloves credentials and a genuine set of high cut gloves — a workable pair of nitrile coated gloves for severe hazards.
How the Ergodyne ProFlex 7070 compares to other gloves
For A5 food-grade, the Ergodyne ProFlex 7040; for A4 industrial cut, the sandy-nitrile 7024; for another A7, the 7072; for A3, the PU 7030 or foam-nitrile 7031; and for light A2, the 7022. The nitrile-vs-PU coating guide explains the trade-offs.
Choosing the right glove for the hazard
Cut level and coating are separate decisions. For coating and cut families, browse the nitrile gloves and mechanics gloves collections; for impact hazards, the impact-resistant gloves and cut-vs-impact guide; and for heavy leather, the leather work gloves collection and mechanics cut-glove guide.
Where it fits by job and team orders
The 7070 suits stamping shops, scrap and glass handlers, and heavy fabricators facing severe cut hazards who want protection without leather's bulk. Because an A7 liner is stiffer than a mid-level glove, reserve it for the tasks that truly generate that hazard and drop to an A3 or A4 for general handling, so dexterity is never traded away needlessly. Inspect the coating and liner at the start of each shift, size the glove snug for control on heavy, sharp parts, keep chemical tasks on chemical gloves, and replace worn pairs promptly.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Ergodyne ProFlex 7070?
An ANSI/ISEA 105 A7 nitrile-coated cut-resistant glove - one of the highest cut-protection levels. It is built for severe cut hazards like automotive stamping, scrap metal handling, glass manufacturing, and metal fabrication.
What does A7 cut resistance mean?
A7 is among the highest cut-protection levels on the ANSI/ISEA 105 A1-A9 scale, as listed. It is designed for severe laceration risk where standard A4 or A5 gloves are insufficient.
What does the nitrile palm coating do?
The nitrile palm provides grip and abrasion resistance in dry and lightly oily conditions without the bulk of leather, so you keep control on sharp, heavy parts.
Is A7 too much for general work?
Often yes - higher cut levels add stiffness. Reserve A7 for severe cut hazards and use a lower level, such as A3 or A4, for general handling to keep dexterity where the hazard allows.
Are these chemical-resistant gloves?
No - the 7070 is a cut-resistant glove and is not rated for a chemical splash hazard. For solvents or acids, use dedicated chemical-resistant gloves selected by breakthrough time for the chemical.
How is it different from the A4 7024?
The 7070 is A7 for severe cut hazards, while the 7024 is A4 for upper-mid-range industrial cut. Step up to the 7070 when stamping, scrap, or glass exceeds what an A4 covers.
Does it replace leather for heavy work?
The 7070 delivers A7 cut protection with more dexterity than heavyweight leather; for heat or heavy abrasion, leather still has a role. Match the glove to the dominant hazard.
What sizes are available?
The listing shows Small, Medium, Large, X-Large, and 2X-Large. A snug fit preserves control when handling sharp, heavy materials.
Do cut gloves stop punctures?
Cut resistance and puncture resistance are different ratings. The A7 rating covers slicing cut forces, not punctures; choose a puncture- or needle-rated glove for those hazards.
Does it grip oily metal?
The nitrile palm grips dry and lightly oily surfaces; for heavy oil a full-dip heavy-duty nitrile glove grips better. Match the coating to the surface condition.
When should I replace them?
Replace the gloves when the coating wears through, the liner shows cuts or holes, or grip and fit degrade - worn gloves no longer deliver their rated protection.
How do I order for a team?
