Strong Needlestick and Cut Protection for Law Enforcement
The Mechanix Wear Leather Needlestick Law Enforcement Covert Gloves, model NSLE-55, are designed to address real threats faced by police officers, SWAT teams, corrections officers, and security professionals. Exposure to hypodermic needles, sharp blades, and other dangerous objects can put you at risk on the job. These gloves help solve that problem by offering dependable protection, grip, and comfort in high-risk environments.
Advanced Technology for Maximum Safety
Mechanix Wear uses Durahide™ FR Goat Skin leather to provide durability, dexterity, and comfort. ArmorCore™ needlestick resistant technology covers the palm and wraps around the fingertips, giving you ASTM F2878 Level 2 needlestick puncture protection. The 360-degree cut liner ensures that the gloves reach ANSI A7 cut resistance certification, so your hands are safe from slashes and punctures. Hot-stamped grip overlays on the fingers and palm add to grip strength and durability. An adjustable hook and loop closure delivers a secure, snag-free fit for weapon handling, while the low-profile cuff improves wrist mobility and works well with watches.
