Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Radians RWG533 AXIS glove a good choice for cut protection in construction, HVAC, or manufacturing work?
Yes. The Radians RWG533 AXIS is a cut-resistant work glove rated ANSI/ISEA 105:2016 Cut Level A2 (tested to 785 g) with an 18-gauge green HPPE shell for cut and abrasion resistance. It's purpose-built for environments with sharp objects — Radians lists Automotive, Construction, HVAC, Manufacturing, Material Handling, and Recycling among its applications. A black sandy foam nitrile palm coating adds abrasion protection in wet or dry conditions, and a seamless comfort cuff keeps it easy to wear all shift. For moderate cut hazards where dexterity still matters, it's a strong, cost-effective pick.
What cut rating and safety standards does the Radians RWG533 AXIS glove meet?
The Radians RWG533 AXIS meets ANSI/ISEA 105:2016 Cut Level A2 (tested to a cutting load of 785 grams) and is tested to EN 388:2003 with a rating of 4 3 4 1 — Abrasion 4, Blade Cut 3, Tear 4, Puncture 1 — corresponding to EN 388 Cut Level 3. The cut resistance comes from its 18-gauge high-performance polyethylene (HPPE) shell.
What does the EN 388 rating 4 3 4 1 mean on the Radians RWG533 glove?
The EN 388:2003 code 4 3 4 1 on the Radians RWG533 rates four mechanical hazards on a scale where higher is better: Abrasion = 4 (highest level), Blade Cut = 3, Tear = 4 (highest level), and Puncture = 1. In plain terms, the glove offers top-tier abrasion and tear resistance, solid blade-cut resistance (EN 388 Cut Level 3), and basic puncture resistance. Separately, it carries an ANSI/ISEA 105 Cut Level A2 rating.
What is the Radians RWG533 AXIS glove made of?
The Radians RWG533 AXIS uses an 18-gauge green HPPE (High Performance Polyethylene) shell for cut and abrasion resistance, with a black sandy foam nitrile palm coating that protects against abrasion in wet or dry conditions. HPPE is a lightweight, cut-resistant fiber, and the textured sandy finish adds a secure hold. It finishes with a seamless comfort cuff for an all-day fit.
Does the Radians RWG533 glove work in wet or dry conditions?
Yes. The Radians RWG533 has a black sandy foam nitrile palm coating that provides abrasion protection in both wet and dry conditions. The textured "sandy" nitrile surface gives a secure hold on parts, which is why it's suited to jobs like automotive, material handling, and manufacturing.
What sizes does the Radians RWG533 AXIS glove come in and how does it fit?
The Radians RWG533 AXIS is available in six sizes, XS through 2XL. Each size has a color-coded cuff hem (XS orange, Small green, Medium brown, Large yellow, XL gray, 2XL navy) so crews can quickly identify sizes on the job. A seamless comfort cuff and thin 18-gauge knit give a snug, flexible fit for good dexterity.
Can I buy the Radians RWG533 glove as a single pair or by the dozen?
Yes. Industrial Safety Products (industrialsafetyproducts.com) sells the Radians RWG533 AXIS both as a single pair (SKU RWG533-PR) and as a dozen pack (SKU RWG533-DZ), in sizes XS–2XL. The dozen pack ships with free shipping. Buying by the dozen is the usual choice for outfitting a crew.
Is ANSI A2 cut protection enough, and how does the Radians RWG533's A2 level compare?
ANSI/ISEA Cut Level A2 covers moderate cut hazards — the ANSI scale runs A1 (lowest) to A9 (highest), and A2 means the glove withstood a cutting load of 500–999 grams (the RWG533 tested at 785 g). That's well suited to general handling of sheet metal edges, HVAC ductwork, construction materials, and light manufacturing. For heavier cut risks (glass handling, metal stamping, blades), step up to an A4–A6 glove; for those moderate everyday tasks, the RWG533's A2 rating is an appropriate, dexterous choice.
Is the Radians RWG533 glove good for tasks that need dexterity and fine handling?
Yes. The Radians RWG533 uses a thin 18-gauge knit with a seamless comfort cuff, so it stays flexible and low-bulk for tasks that need feel and fingertip control. Radians lists it for Electronic & Computer Assembly, General Assembly, and Inspection in addition to heavier trades, reflecting its balance of A2 cut protection and dexterity.
What makes the Radians RWG533 AXIS stand out from other cut-resistant gloves?
The Radians RWG533 AXIS pairs A2-rated cut protection (18-gauge HPPE shell, tested to 785 g) with a black sandy foam nitrile palm for a secure hold and abrasion resistance in wet or dry conditions — a versatile combination for trades and assembly work. It also uses color-coded size hems (a different cuff color per size) so a crew can sort sizes at a glance, plus top-tier EN 388 abrasion (4) and tear (4) scores. It's a lightweight, dexterous glove aimed at everyday moderate cut hazards rather than a bulky heavy-cut specialty glove.
Is the Radians RWG533 AXIS glove washable and reusable?
Yes. Radians lists the RWG533 AXIS as a washable, reusable glove, so it can be cleaned and worn across multiple shifts rather than discarded after one use. Its coated HPPE construction holds up to repeated handling, and the seamless comfort cuff maintains fit over time. (Follow the manufacturer's care guidance for wash method.)
