Product Spotlight: Total Defense with the Pyramex GL202CHT Genuine Leather A5 Impact Glove

When you are managing a crew on a high-risk job site, you can’t afford to compromise on hand safety. Lacerations, pinch injuries, and severe abrasions can halt a shift in seconds, costing your business time, money, and valuable productivity.

That is why we are highlighting a powerhouse addition to our safety lineup: the Pyramex GL202CHT Genuine Leather Palm Cut & Impact Resistant Glove.

Engineered specifically for demanding trades, this utility glove strikes the perfect balance between heavy-duty, certified armor and the all-day comfort workers actually want to wear. Here is a deep dive into why the GL202CHT deserves a spot in your facility’s tool crib.

Heavy-Duty 360° Protection Where It Counts

Many standard mechanic gloves on the market cut corners by only providing safety linings on the palm side of the hand. The GL202CHT completely eliminates that vulnerability.

• 360° ANSI/ISEA A5 Cut Shielding: Inside the glove sits a full polyester and steel mesh liner wrapping around the entire hand. Whether your crew is handling sharp metal fragments, burred pipes, or rough materials, they have elite Level A5 defense protecting them from every angle.

• ANSI Level 1 Impact Resistance: Smash and pinch injuries are incredibly common in rigging and heavy construction. The back of the GL202CHT features integrated Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR) guards across the knuckles, thumb, and fingers to absorb low-energy impacts and protect hands from crushing blows.

• Maximum Performance Ratings: This glove doesn't just promise protection; it proves it with an ANSI Abrasion Level 6 rating and an ANSI Puncture Level 5 rating. It is built to survive the harshest friction and sharp environments.

Built for the Real World: Comfort & Durability

The best safety glove is the one your team actually keeps on their hands. If a glove is too hot, stiff, or awkward, workers take them off—and that’s when accidents happen. Pyramex designed the GL202CHT to combat hand fatigue from the ground up.

• Padded Genuine Leather Palm: The genuine leather palm provides that classic, rugged grip that tradesmen trust, reinforced with strategic padding to dampen vibration from heavy tool operation.

• Breathable Stretch Mesh Back: To prevent sweaty hands and heat buildup during long, demanding shifts, the back of the glove is constructed from a lightweight, flexible high-visibility stretch mesh fabric that maximizes air circulation.

• Secure Fit Barrier: Equipped with a secure hook-and-loop TPR wrist closure, these gloves seal out dirt, dust, and abrasive debris. A built-in pull tab at the wrist makes donning and doffing incredibly fast and easy.

• High-Visibility Signaling: The bright hi-vis backing ensures that workers' hands are easily visible in low-light facility conditions or busy construction yards, maximizing situational awareness and signaling safety.
