FLEX work gloves by the HF SAFETY brand is professional Category II (CAT II) personal protective equipment, designed for tasks requiring exceptional manual dexterity, excellent feel for the object being held, and a secure grip. Thanks to the use of high-tech micro-foam nitrile coating and a flexible nylon and spandex base, this model guarantees a perfect fit to the hand and uncompromising freedom of movement. It is an indispensable part of workstation equipment where the highest precision of action and effective hand protection are essential.
Why choose FLEX coated gloves? Discover the key advantages
- Ultra-resistance to abrasion (Level 4): The gloves have achieved the highest, 4th level of resistance to friction and abrasion according to the EN388 standard, ensuring exceptional durability and allowing for long-term use in intense working conditions.
- Resistance to contact heat up to 100°C: In accordance with the EN407 standard, this model guarantees safe protection against high temperatures during short-term contact with a heated object up to 100°C.
- Constant Actifresh antibacterial protection: The material contains the original Sanitized Actifresh agent, which effectively inhibits the growth of bacteria, fungi, and the formation of unpleasant odors, taking care of the health and hygiene of the hand skin.
- Excellent breathability and air circulation: A thin layer of micro-foam nitrile in the palm part combined with a knitted back ensures excellent air permeability parameters, reducing hand perspiration.
- Skin safety (OEKO-TEX and REACH certificate): The gloves are fully compliant with the REACH regulation and have the OEKO-TEX certificate, which guarantees they do not contain any substances harmful to the user's health.
- Washable and Vending machine compatible: The glove design allows for regular washing without losing protective properties. The product is also adapted for packaging and distribution via automatic vending machines.
Technical specification and protection parameters
The FLEX model consists of seamless, knitted protective gloves made of soft, comfortable, and highly stretchable nylon combined with spandex. The grip part is covered with a thin but extremely durable micro-foam nitrile coating, and the whole is finished with an elastic cuff that stabilizes the product on the wrist. These lightweight gloves are produced in universal gray-black colors and a wide range of sizes: from 6 to 11.
In terms of protection against mechanical hazards (EN388:2016 standard), the gloves carry the code 4131X. This means obtaining the maximum, 4th level of abrasion resistance, 1st level of cut resistance, 3rd level of tear resistance, and 1st level of puncture resistance, while the TDM cut test is marked with the X symbol as not tested. In turn, in the classification of thermal protection (EN407 standard), the product has the code X1XXXX, which confirms the 1st level of protection against contact heat up to 100°C and no requirements for other parameters, such as non-flammability or heat radiation. The product also meets the general requirements of the EN420 standard and the PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425.
Wide application of FLEX coated gloves
Thanks to the combination of above-average abrasion resistance and thermal properties, this model is ideal for all types of work in dry environments:
- Precision mechanics and assembly: precise operation of small structural elements, assembly of electronic components, and work with lightly greased details.
- Warehouse work and logistics: fast and safe packaging of goods, sorting of shipments, and operation of transport equipment.
- Technical and service work: manual activities requiring excellent tool feel while protecting hands against contact heat.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What thermal hazards do FLEX gloves protect against?
FLEX gloves have an official certificate of compliance with the EN407 standard regarding protection against contact heat. They have obtained protection level 1, which means they effectively protect the hand skin against burns during short-term contact with objects heated to a temperature of 100°C.
What does the presence of Actifresh (Sanitized) technology in the material structure mean?
It is a special antibacterial and antifungal protection integrated into the nylon and spandex fibers. It prevents the multiplication of microorganisms caused by sweat, thanks to which the inside of the glove remains fresh, hygienic, and free from unpleasant odors even during long-term work.
Can nitrile-coated gloves be machine washed?
Yes. The FLEX model has been designed for multiple uses and is suitable for washing. Regular cleaning allows maintaining full hygiene without worrying about losing mechanical parameters or the elasticity of the nitrile coating.
Are these gloves safe for people with sensitive skin?
Definitely yes. The gloves have the OEKO-TEX certificate and are fully compliant with the strict European standards of the REACH regulation. This means that the production process excludes the use of any toxic or harmful chemical substances for the user.
