ANDREA HOWARD: Hello and welcome to Quick Tips from MSC Industrial Supply, a show where we invite the manufacturing community to share their expertise with us. In any industrial setting, hand protection is key, but finding the right balance between durability and tactility can be tricky. You need a glove that's tough enough to resist cuts and abrasions, but also lightweight and flexible enough for you to do your job with precision.
Our partners at SHOWA are introducing a new glove designed to do just that. Let's take a look at the XC810.
Let's check out the DURACoil Alpha XC810 from SHOWA. It's flexible, lightweight and touchscreen compatible while offering level 4 cut resistance and being free of silicone and natural rubber. The embossed nightfall grip is specially designed to be resistant to both oil and abrasion. The polyethylene construction improves cut resistance and results in higher dexterity for the wearer. It's also fully touchscreen compatible, allowing you to interact with devices while keeping your hands protected.
Whether you're in manufacturing, maintenance, warehousing, construction, or elsewhere, you can be sure that SHOWA has got you covered.

Having the glove that provides serious cut protection without feeling bulky is a game changer. With the XC810, you get the toughness you need and the dexterity you want to get the job done right.
Thanks to SHOWA for the great new option. We'll see you next time on Quick Tips.
