Ansell ActivArmr® 70-765 Cut & Heat Resistant Leather-Coated Work Gloves

The Ansell ActivArmr® 70-765 is a high-performance cut-resistant industrial glove engineered for metal fabrication, automotive manufacturing, machinery handling, and other high-risk mechanical environments where workers encounter sharp edges, abrasive surfaces, puncture hazards, and intermittent heat exposure.

Combining a 10-gauge engineered aramid-blend liner with a premium leather palm reinforcement, the 70-765 delivers an advanced balance of cut protection, grip stability, abrasion resistance, and durability while maintaining the flexibility needed for material handling and assembly operations.

Key advantage: Leather-reinforced ANSI A5 cut protection with intermittent heat resistance up to 100°C / 200°F for demanding industrial handling tasks.

Why Cut Resistance Matters in Industrial Operations

In industrial environments, hand injuries frequently occur during handling of unfinished metal, machined components, sheet stock, castings, glass, and sharp-edged materials. Cut-resistant gloves help reduce injury risk by distributing and resisting blade or edge force across engineered fibers.

  • Helps reduce laceration risk during material handling
  • Protects against sharp snags and rough edges
  • Improves grip security during oily handling conditions
  • Supports safer handling of abrasive components
Leather Reinforcement + Aramid Fiber Technology

The ActivArmr 70-765 combines engineered cut-resistant yarns with a leather-reinforced palm to balance dexterity, grip, and durability in high-wear environments.

Component Primary Function
Aramid fibers Cut and heat resistance
Leather palm Grip and abrasion durability
Reinforced thumb crotch Extended wear resistance

This hybrid construction helps maintain glove flexibility while improving service life in repetitive handling applications.

Intermittent Heat Protection

The ActivArmr 70-765 is designed to withstand intermittent contact heat up to 100°C / 200°F, helping protect workers handling warm materials, recently machined components, or heat-retaining surfaces.

Heat protection performance depends on exposure duration, contact pressure, and thermal conductivity of the handled material.

Choosing the Right Industrial Cut-Resistant Glove
Glove Type Primary Advantage Typical Use
PU-coated cut gloves High dexterity Light assembly
ActivArmr 70-765 Cut + abrasion + heat resistance Heavy industrial handling
Welding gloves Higher thermal protection Hot work / welding

The ActivArmr 70-765 is optimized for operations requiring a balance of cut resistance, grip durability, and moderate heat handling.

Recommended Applications
  • Handling metal sheets and panels
  • Machined metal part handling
  • Glass repair and replacement
  • Automotive manufacturing
  • Press shop operations
  • Machinery and equipment maintenance
About Ansell Industrial Hand Protection

Ansell is a global manufacturer of industrial and mechanical hand-protection systems used across automotive, metal fabrication, manufacturing, chemical processing, and high-risk industrial environments. The ActivArmr line focuses on advanced mechanical protection where cut resistance, durability, and worker performance must coexist.

Technical insight: In industrial hand protection, glove failure most commonly occurs at high-flex wear points such as the thumb crotch and palm interface—reinforced construction significantly impacts real-world service life.

The Technical Vault: Ansell ActivArmr® 70-765

Vault purpose: Advanced analysis of cut-resistant glove engineering, aramid fiber mechanics, leather reinforcement behavior, and industrial hazard mitigation principles.

1) Understanding ANSI A5 Cut Resistance

ANSI/ISEA 105 cut ratings measure the force required for a blade to cut through glove material under controlled laboratory conditions.

  • ANSI A5 corresponds to 2200–2999 grams of cutting load
  • Higher ratings generally require stronger engineered fibers
  • Cut resistance does not guarantee puncture resistance
  • Real-world performance depends on blade sharpness and motion dynamics

A5 gloves are commonly used in metal fabrication and glass handling where moderate-to-high laceration risk exists.

2) Aramid Fiber Mechanics

Aramid fibers are engineered synthetic fibers known for high tensile strength, thermal stability, and cut resistance.

  • High strength-to-weight ratio
  • Excellent thermal stability compared to conventional textiles
  • Resists fiber severing during blade contact
  • Maintains flexibility under repetitive movement

In cut-resistant gloves, aramid fibers distribute cutting forces across multiple fibers rather than allowing localized penetration.

3) Why Leather Reinforcement Matters

Pure knit cut-resistant gloves often fail prematurely in abrasive industrial environments due to friction and repeated surface contact.

  • Leather improves abrasion resistance
  • Enhances grip in oily handling conditions
  • Protects high-wear palm regions
  • Improves glove lifespan under repetitive handling

The leather palm in the 70-765 functions as both a grip surface and sacrificial wear layer.

4) Thumb Crotch Failure and Reinforcement Engineering

In industrial gloves, the thumb crotch is one of the highest stress concentration zones due to repetitive gripping and flexion.

  • Repeated pinch motion accelerates material fatigue
  • Sharp edges concentrate force at thumb interfaces
  • Reinforcement improves durability under repetitive handling
  • Aramid stitching resists seam separation under stress
5) Intermittent Heat Resistance Explained

Heat resistance ratings refer to intermittent contact—not continuous thermal exposure.

  • Short-duration contact reduces thermal transfer to skin
  • Leather provides additional thermal buffering
  • Heat performance varies with contact pressure and exposure time
  • Not intended for direct flame or welding exposure
6) Grip Mechanics in Oily Environments

Surface texture and leather friction characteristics help maintain handling stability in oily or lightly lubricated industrial environments, reducing the likelihood of dropped parts and grip-related hand injuries.

7) Typical Failure Modes in Industrial Gloves
Failure Mode Cause
Palm wear-through Repeated abrasion
Thumb crotch tearing Grip stress concentration
Seam failure Repeated flexing and load cycling
