MCR Safety PD6951-XXXL Predator A6 Impact PU Gloves β XXX-Large
The MCR Safety PD6951-XXXL Predator gloves in XXX-Large deliver ANSI/ISEA 105 Level A6 cut resistance combined with structured impact protection across the knuckles and fingers β purpose-built for heavy construction, oil and gas, material handling, and demolition workers who face both sharp-edge hazards and high-impact environments. Featuring a HyperMax HPPE shell, polyurethane palm coating, and TPR (thermoplastic rubber) impact guards on the knuckle and finger dorsal surfaces, the Predator PD6951 is MCR Safety's dual-rated solution for work sites where a single-hazard glove is no longer sufficient. The XXXL size ensures large-handed workers in heavy trades get a properly fitted glove, not a stretched medium.
Key Features
- ANSI/ISEA 105 A6 Cut Resistance β Rated to withstand 3000 grams of cutting force, appropriate for the majority of sharp-edge hazards in construction and industrial environments
- Dorsal Impact Protection β Structured TPR guards over the knuckles and fingers absorb and deflect blows from tools, pipe, structural steel, and falling objects
- Polyurethane Palm Coating β Thin, form-fitting PU coating provides dry grip and dexterity while resisting abrasion on rough surfaces
- HyperMax HPPE Shell β MCR Safety's high-tenacity HPPE fiber provides the A6 cut rating with a comfortable, lightweight feel
- ANSI/ISEA 105 Impact Rated β Tested and rated for impact protection per the ISEA impact standard, not just marketed as "impact resistant"
- XXX-Large (3XL) Sizing β Designed for workers with the largest hand profiles, ensuring a fit that doesn't restrict circulation or reduce dexterity
- Extended Cuff β Provides additional wrist coverage and helps keep the glove securely in place during demanding tasks
- Flexible Construction β Glove articulates naturally with hand movement, reducing fatigue during extended gripping and lifting tasks
Detailed Description
The MCR Safety Predator PD6951 was designed for a job reality that single-hazard gloves don't address: in heavy construction and oil field environments, workers face cut hazards from sharp rebar, pipe edges, and structural steel at the same time they face impact hazards from tools, equipment, and structural members. The PD6951 answers both demands in a single glove β A6-rated cut protection from the HyperMax HPPE shell, and independently tested impact protection from the structured TPR guards on the dorsal surface.
The impact guards on the PD6951 are not simply padding β they are rigid TPR structures designed to absorb and redirect the energy of a blow away from the metacarpal bones and finger joints. Knuckle and finger injuries are among the most common hand injuries in construction and heavy industrial work, often caused by slipping tools, pinch points, and contact with structural elements. The Predator's dorsal protection is positioned at the specific anatomical locations most frequently exposed to these impacts.
The polyurethane palm coating offers a different grip profile than latex coatings. PU is thinner and more form-fitting, which means better tactile feedback and dexterity β important for workers who need to feel fasteners, fittings, and tool handles through their gloves. The thin coat also allows the HPPE shell's cut resistance to perform optimally, with minimal reduction in cut rating due to coating thickness. For dry applications and light oil conditions, PU performs reliably across a full shift.
For safety managers ordering for crews of larger workers β common in structural trades, oil and gas, and heavy equipment operation β the XXXL size addresses a persistent procurement challenge. Workers who are issued undersized gloves typically remove them or wear them improperly, negating both the cut and impact protection. The PD6951-XXXL ensures the largest-handed crew members have a glove that fits correctly from day one.
The Predator line meets ANSI/ISEA 138-2019 for impact protection, which requires testing at the actual impact guard locations using a defined drop weight protocol. This standardized rating allows safety professionals to make direct comparisons between impact-rated gloves and document compliance in their PPE hazard assessments.
Applications and Use Cases
- Structural Steel Erection β Handling sharp-edged beam, column, and connection hardware in a high-impact environment

Frequently Asked Questions
What does ANSI/ISEA 138 impact rating mean on the Predator PD6951?
ANSI/ISEA 138-2019 is the American standard for impact-resistant work gloves. It defines a test protocol using a drop weight to measure the force transmitted through the glove's impact guards at the knuckle and finger locations. A Level 1 rating means the average transmitted force is 9 kN or less; Level 2 is 6.5 kN or less. The PD6951's ISEA impact rating means it has been independently tested β not just labeled β for impact protection.
Is polyurethane coating suitable for oily environments?
Polyurethane coating performs best in dry to lightly contaminated conditions. For heavily oily environments, a nitrile or latex coating may provide better grip retention. If your application involves significant oil or lubricant exposure on work surfaces, consider evaluating an oil-resistant coating alternative or consult our work gloves collection for oil-specific options.
Why do I need XXXL β isn't XL or XXL usually sufficient?
Hand size varies significantly among workers in heavy trades, and XXXL is genuinely necessary for workers with larger hand circumferences β typically 12 inches or more across the knuckles. Wearing an undersized glove compresses the hand, reduces circulation, limits dexterity, and can cause the glove to ride up and expose the wrist. A correctly fitted XXXL is safer and more comfortable than a stretched XL.
Does the impact protection interfere with dexterity or grip?
The TPR impact guards on the PD6951 are positioned exclusively on the dorsal (back) side of the hand and fingers, where impact events typically occur. The palm remains fully coated with thin PU for grip and dexterity. The guard profile is designed to allow natural hand articulation, so gripping and manipulating tools and materials remains practical throughout a shift.
What is the difference between A4, A6, and A8 cut resistance?
Under ANSI/ISEA 105, A4 requires 1500g cutting force resistance, A6 requires 3000g, and A8 requires 6000g. The PD6951's A6 rating covers the majority of sharp-edge hazards found in construction and heavy industry, including rebar, structural steel edges, and pipe. A8 is reserved for the most severe cut hazards like fine-gauge sheet metal and glass handling.
Can the Predator PD6951-XXXL be used in outdoor construction in cold weather?
The PD6951 is not rated as a cold-weather or insulated glove. In cold conditions, it provides cut and impact protection but not thermal insulation. For outdoor winter work, a liner or thermal work glove worn underneath may be appropriate, though this will affect fit β size up or evaluate a purpose-built cold-weather cut-resistant option for sustained cold exposure.
Is the PD6951 available in other sizes for my whole crew?
Yes. The MCR Safety Predator PD6951 series is available in multiple sizes including Large, X-Large, XX-Large, and XXX-Large. Visit our MCR Safety collection to view all available sizes and ensure every worker on your crew is properly fitted with rated cut and impact protection.
