MAGID GLOVE & SAFETY'S CutMaster XKS work gloves are manufactured from XKS yarn, featuring an ANSI Cut Level 4 rating - 2.5 times greater protection than gloves made of 100% aramid or HPPE yarn. The gloves are able to withstand the most grueling applications and work conditions, while effectively hiding dirt and grime, to extend wear and reduce the rate of disposal or laundering required. XKS yarn is made from a unique combination of stainless steel wire, Kevlar, and high performance fibers.
