Redefine your COMFORT ZONE™ with HyFlex^® series; gloves for advanced mechanical protection

The light, durable HyFlex^® 11-937 and 11-939 gloves provide protection from cuts and oil exposure across multiple applications in automotive, machinery and equipment and metal fabrication. The RIPEL^TM technology prevents oil from making contact with the worker’s skin, keeping hands safe and dry. The superior performance of the ANSELL GRIP^TMtechnology guarantees safe handling of both wet and dry materials. The ultra-lightweight 18-gauge design provides dexterity and a high level of comfort. The reinforced thumb crotch offers increased protection and longevity, while the high durability FORTIX^TMcoating is extending the use life. HyFlex 11-937 has a ¾ dipped coating while HyFlex 11-939 is the fully coated version.

The HyFlex range also includes the HyFlex^® 11-816, which strikes an ideal balance between tactility and durability thanks to its unique coating providing high abrasion resistance for a longer wear time. The HyFlex 11-816 is designed for lightweight applications in dry or slightly oily environments.

Featuring INTERCEPT^TMcut-resistant technology, the HyFlex^® 11-542 brings comfort and protection in a wide range of applications and risks, avoiding the need to change gloves between tasks.

For a higher level of protection against harmful exposures. Ansell has developed the ultimate barrier disposable nitrile glove Microflex^® 93-850.
