HexArmor SharpsMaster HV 7082 Needle Stick Resistant Gloves
The HexArmor SharpsMaster HV 7082 Needle Stick Resistant Gloves feature the highest needle stick resistance available due to their design and layering of SuperFabric materials and nitrile coating. As well as being extremely needle resistant, the SharpsMaster gloves are also cut resistant to the highest level according to CE standards.
Main Features of the HexArmor SharpsMaster HV 7082 Needle Stick Resistant Gloves
The Sharpsmaster gloves are made from three layers of 'SuperFabric' branded material -, a breathable, durable and lightweight fabric reinforced with an overlay of tiny armour plates.
This fabric is then dipped 3/4 of the way in a nitrile coating for extra protection against needles. By design, the Sharpsmaster HV 7082 is comfortable and provides good dexterity but minimal grip.
The gloves also have an added anti-microbial treatment which helps them stay fresh. The elasticated wrist helps to ensure and maintain a good fit and protects from dirt travelling into the glove. The nitrile coating can be seen in the image below.
EN Rating
These gloves are EN388 Certified Safety Gloves, scoring a 4533 in testing. See below for a breakdown of this testing.
Please note that while there is no EN388 specific needle stick resistance test, the Sharpsmaster HV 7082 has been tested using a modified ASTM 1342 standard of puncture resistance using 25 gauge hypodermic needles.

Sizing Information
|  | In order to select the correct size of safety glove, simply measure across your palm at the point indicated in the picture. Then compare your measurement with the chart below to ensure that you select the correct size of glove for your hand. We would recommend using a tape measure or ruler to get the right measurement. Our measurements are based on centimetres. Where your measurement falls on the boundary of two sizes, we would recommend selecting the larger of the two sizes for a comfortable fit. However, if you would specifically like your gloves to be a closer fit, perhaps for work that requires fine movements, select the smaller of the two sizes. |
