Tear,
puncture, and cut resistant gloves are often constructed from materials such as
high-grade stainless steel or poly-para-phenylene terephthalamide (e.g.,
Kevlar®) and commonly feature a mesh aesthetic. Resistant to damage from
sharp or abrasive objects such as glass and knives, these gloves are often
ergonomically designed for a precise fit.
As
mentioned previously, fabric and cotton gloves can also be used for
applications that require minor to moderate abrasive or sharp material
handling. When produced with linings composed of stronger materials, such as
plastics, they offer even more effective abrasion or cut protection.
