Technical Vault: Ansell HyFlex® 11-724 Cut Resistant Industrial Gloves

The Ansell HyFlex® 11-724 is a breathable A2 / EN ISO B cut-resistant industrial glove engineered for workers who need light-duty cut protection, abrasion resistance, puncture resistance, secure PU grip, touchscreen compatibility, flexibility, and extended-wear comfort. It combines INTERCEPT™ Cut Resistance Technology, Touchscreen Technology, a thin polyurethane palm coating, and a 13-gauge HPPE / spandex liner.

This Technical Vault summarizes the verified construction, standards, material profile, cut and abrasion performance, sizing guidance, Ansell Earth profile, application guidance, inspection points, storage notes, and use limitations for the HyFlex® 11-724.

Vault summary: Breathable A2 / EN ISO B cut glove with INTERCEPT™ Cut Resistance Technology, Touchscreen Technology, thin polyurethane palm coating, 13-gauge HPPE / spandex liner, ANSI abrasion level 6, ANSI puncture level 4, EN 388 4342B, Category II classification, OEKO-TEX® 1408033, REACH compliance, sizes 5–11, and 12 pairs/bag, 12 bags/carton packaging.

Proper glove sizing helps improve comfort, dexterity, grip control, and protection. To measure your glove size, wrap a tape measure around the widest part of your dominant hand, just below the knuckles, excluding the thumb.

Fit note: This product is listed in numeric sizes 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11. Size 5 is smaller than the standard SOS Ansell chart shown above; verify fit using Ansell product sizing or site-specific fitting procedures. A properly sized cut-resistant handling glove should feel secure without restricting hand movement.

Standards note: EN 388 4342B describes mechanical performance. This glove carries both a circular blade cut rating of 3 and an ISO cut classification of B, along with EN abrasion level 4, tear level 4, and puncture level 2.

Ansell lists environmental attributes for the HyFlex 11-724 under its Ansell Earth profile. These attributes relate to manufacturing and packaging rather than glove hazard performance.

• Manufactured in a facility certified by Intertek for diverting more than 99% of waste from landfill
• Manufactured in a facility with an accredited Environmental Management System
• Plastic-free packaging
• Recyclable packaging
• Shipper case includes a minimum of 80% recycled material
• Primary packaging redesigned to contain 70% less plastic versus previous packaging
• Paperband made of responsibly sourced raw material
• Shipper case sizes optimized for efficient shipping

• Mounting and dismantling
• Light assembly tasks
• Handling incoming goods
• Automotive production support
• Machinery and equipment work
• Manufacturing environments
• Dry or light oil handling where grip, comfort, and abrasion resistance are priorities
• Touchscreen-enabled inspection, scanning, and workstation tasks

• Chemical immersion or validated chemical breakthrough protection
• Liquidproof barrier protection
• High heat, open flame, molten metal splash, or thermal protection applications
• Moving blade hazards or powered cutting tools
• Needle, hypodermic, or ultra-fine puncture hazards
• Electrical protection or antistatic-controlled applications requiring validated antistatic PPE
• Heavy-duty mechanical applications requiring higher cut or impact protection
• Heavy oil saturation requiring oil-repellent or liquid-repellent glove technology
• Silicone-sensitive painting, coating, or contamination-control processes unless validated by the site
• Sterile cleanroom processing unless separately validated for the controlled environment

• Inspect the polyurethane palm coating for cuts, punctures, cracking, peeling, worn-through areas, or loss of grip.
• Check fingertips, thumb crotch, palm, and other high-contact zones for coating separation or abrasion damage.
• Confirm the 13-gauge liner is intact and that HPPE or spandex fibers are not exposed through excessive wear.
• Check that touchscreen function remains acceptable for the task if device use is required.
• Check that the knitwrist cuff is not stretched out, torn, contaminated, or loose.
• Replace gloves when coating integrity, grip performance, cut protection, touchscreen performance, fit, or protective function is visibly compromised.

What is the cut level of the HyFlex 11-724?
The glove is rated ANSI Cut Level A2 and carries an EN ISO cut level B classification under EN 388 4342B.

What is the coating material?
The glove uses a polyurethane palm coating, supporting secure handling in dry and light oil conditions.

Is this glove touchscreen compatible?
Yes. Ansell lists the HyFlex 11-724 with Touchscreen Technology, allowing device use without glove removal.

What sizes are available?
Ansell lists numeric sizes 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11.

Is this glove antistatic or silicone free?
No. Ansell lists the HyFlex 11-724 as not antistatic and not silicone free.

The HyFlex 11-724 is designed for A2 / EN ISO B cut-resistant light-duty mechanical hand protection. It is not intended for chemical immersion, validated chemical breakthrough protection, liquidproof barrier protection, electrical protection, thermal protection, flame exposure, molten metal splash, moving blade hazards, heavy-duty mechanical applications, cut hazards beyond its A2 / EN ISO B rating, antistatic-controlled applications, silicone-sensitive processes, or needle puncture protection. Final glove selection should be based on documented hazard assessment, edge sharpness, contact force, abrasion exposure, puncture exposure, grip requirements, touchscreen requirements, silicone-control requirements, coating condition, glove fit, and replacement frequency.

Technical insight: The HyFlex 11-724 is strongest where breathable comfort, A2 cut protection, ANSI abrasion level 6 wear life, thin PU grip, and touchscreen compatibility are required for everyday light-duty industrial handling.
