HexArmor Gloves Keep Canada’s Oil Workers Safe

Oil workers across Canada—from Alberta’s tar sands to Saskatchewan’s drilling sites—face daily risks: jagged metal cuts, heavy impacts, and slick surfaces. Knight Safety Gear distributes HexArmor’s toughest gloves, part of our 51,000+ product lineup, to protect these crews in Canada’s oil patches.

The HexArmor Rig Lizard® 2025 glove, with ANSI/ISEA A5 cut resistance and an IR-X® Impact Exoskeleton™ (Level 2), grips oily pipes—crucial for Calgary rig hands. Its durable palm withstands Alberta’s abrasive conditions. For bigger hits, the Chrome Core® 4026 offers ANSI A7 cut resistance and Level 3 impact protection, safeguarding Saskatchewan workers from dropped tools with a nitrile grip that shines in wet environments.

Welding sparks fly in BC’s pipeline projects, where the 4061 Chrome SLT® delivers ANSI A5 cut resistance, arc flash Level 2 protection (ASTM F2675), and heat resistance up to 260°C—keeping welders safe. Eye protection matters too; the MX300 Anti-Fog Safety Glasses, CSA Z94.3-rated, cut glare and fog for Newfoundland’s offshore crews.

For precision tasks like valve checks in Ontario, the 2095 Rig Lizard® Thin Lizzie™ (ANSI A6 cut) blends toughness with flexibility. Noisy compressors demand hearing safety—the xact Fit™ test system, ISED-certified for Canada, ensures earplug fit per OSHA 29 CFR 1910.95.
