HyFlex 11-840 Ergonomic Nitrile Foam Gloves Ansell Black Size 9

Description

Product Overview

The HyFlex 11-840 series represents a convergence of advanced material science and ergonomic engineering, delivering a glove that meets the rigorous standards of modern industrial workforces. Constructed from a high‑grade nitrile foam composite, each glove offers a seamless barrier against oil, chemicals, and abrasive particles while maintaining tactile sensitivity essential for precision tasks. The foam layer is bonded to a knitted fabric backing, creating a durable yet flexible structure that conforms to the hand’s natural contours, reducing the likelihood of slippage during high‑force operations.

The ERGOFORM Design Technology integrated into the HyFlex 11-840 provides a pre‑shaped anatomical fit that aligns with the user’s palm, fingers, and thumb. This design minimizes hand strain, distributes pressure evenly, and allows for extended wear without the common fatigue associated with traditional flat‑cut gloves. The ergonomic contouring also enhances grip strength, especially when handling oily or wet tools, because the nitrile foam surface generates a micro‑textured grip that reacts dynamically to moisture and temperature changes.
In addition to comfort, the glove’s abrasion‑resistant properties are quantified by independent testing that shows up to 20% greater protection compared with standard nitrile‑coated gloves. The foam coating absorbs impact energy and resists tearing when exposed to rough metal edges, sharp components, or abrasive surfaces common in automotive and fabrication settings. This durability translates into longer service life, reducing replacement frequency and overall operational costs for businesses.
Technical specifications include a unisex‑adult design, a size 9 fit (approximately 8–11 inches in hand length), and a black color that meets industry safety standards for visibility in low‑light environments. Each package contains twelve pairs, providing a convenient bulk supply for workshops, service fleets, or safety stock inventories. The gloves are certified by Ansell’s internal quality assurance program and comply with relevant ANSI/ISEA standards for cut and abrasion resistance.

Usage

The HyFlex 11-840 gloves excel in automotive repair shops where technicians regularly encounter oil, grease, and metal shavings. The nitrile foam barrier protects against chemical exposure while the enhanced grip ensures secure handling of wrenches, sockets, and diagnostic equipment. In metal fabrication environments, workers benefit from the glove’s ability to withstand repeated contact with sharp edges, grinding wheels, and sheet metal, reducing the risk of hand injuries and maintaining productivity.
EMS responders and utility personnel also find the gloves indispensable during emergency repairs and routine maintenance. The gloves’ resistance to puncture and abrasion allows first responders to safely manipulate equipment under time‑critical conditions, while the ergonomic fit reduces hand fatigue during prolonged operations such as valve turning, cable splicing, or equipment installation. The black coloration provides a degree of heat resistance and visibility, which is valuable in low‑light or night‑time scenarios.
Warehousing and logistics teams appreciate the glove’s versatility for tasks ranging from pallet handling to machine operation. The combination of chemical resistance and tactile feedback enables workers to safely manage packaged goods, operate conveyor systems, and perform quality inspections without compromising dexterity. The 12‑pair bulk packaging supports shift‑based inventory management, ensuring that a fresh pair is always available for each worker.

FAQ

What industries are the HyFlex 11-840 gloves best suited for?

The gloves are engineered for automotive repair, metal fabrication, emergency medical services, utilities, warehousing, and any environment where abrasion, chemical exposure, and hand fatigue are concerns.

How does the nitrile foam coating improve grip?

The foam creates a micro‑textured surface that reacts to moisture and temperature, increasing friction on tools and components even when hands are oily or wet.

Are these gloves compliant with safety standards?

Yes, the HyFlex 11-840 meets ANSI/ISEA 105 standards for cut and abrasion resistance and is manufactured under ISO 9001 quality protocols.

What is the recommended replacement schedule?

While the gloves offer extended durability, it is advisable to replace them after visible wear, loss of coating integrity, or any breach in the material to maintain optimal protection.
