Technical Untangled - Cut Level A5 and A9 Gloves: What’s the Difference, and Which Is Right for You?
At Tilsatec, we’re often asked: What’s the real difference between cut level A5 and level A9 gloves, and which should you choose?
Not all cut resistant gloves are created equal. If you’ve ever compared A5 and A9 cut gloves and wondered what the real difference is, you’re not alone.
These ratings come from the ANSI 105-24 standard and are used to match glove performance to the risks you’re working with. In this article, we’ll break down what those cut levels actually mean, ASTM F2992 testing and how it is relevant for higher rated gloves, and where you’re most likely to see each level used in real working environments.

Technical Untangled: Hand Protection in Cold Weather
When temperatures drop, hand injuries can tend to rise. Cold weather doesn’t just make work uncomfortable, it directly impacts grip strength, dexterity, reaction time, and ultimately, safety. For workers handling sharp tools or materials, the combination of cold exposure and cut hazards can be especially dangerous.
