The cuff features an adjustable wrist closure with a pull tab for comfort, and an ID nameplate on the inner cuff for personal identification. This glove meets the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and International Safety Equipment Association (ISEA) 105-2005 performance rating standards for level 2 cut resistance. It is suitable for use in laying, fitting, or installing pipe, and in plumbing maintenance and repair applications, among others.

Work gloves are designed to protect the hands, and can cover the wrists or even extend to cover part or all of the arm. These gloves are typically constructed from leather or heavy cotton, and are suitable for use in construction, mechanical, landscaping, and do-it-yourself applications to help protect against minor cuts and abrasions. Work gloves for use in manufacturing and construction industries can be made of woven, high-strength synthetic fiber to resist cuts from heavy machinery and withstand high levels of heat without melting. Work gloves may also be made of, or include, flame retardant material for use in welding and other heavy-duty applications.
