Overview of the Hatch PPG2 Puncture Protective Duty Gloves | PPG2

When your hands are inches from a concealed needle, broken glass, or a blade, every layer of protection matters. The Hatch PPG2 delivers field-proven cut and puncture resistance built specifically for officers and security professionals who conduct searches in environments where sharps hazards are an everyday reality.

Law enforcement officers, correctional officers, and security personnel rely on the PPG2 because it protects without sacrificing dexterity. The exclusive ArmorTip system adds reinforced Kevlar-backed layers to all sides of each fingertip, targeting the zones most exposed during pat-down searches. A Honeywell Spectra cut-resistant liner covers the palm, while a neoprene and nylon spandex laminated back flexes and breathes to keep hands comfortable through extended wear.

The embossed synthetic suede palm provides a secure, non-slip grip on gear and detained subjects alike. Available in sizes XS through 3XL, the PPG2 carries CE EN388:2016 certification and a tested ArmorTip fingertip puncture rating of Level 4.

Key Features

• ArmorTip Fingertip System: Exclusive Kevlar-reinforced layers wrap all sides of each fingertip, delivering a Level 4 puncture rating under CE EN388:2016. Third-party testing under ASTM F1342-05 confirmed a 53% improvement in puncture resistance over the previous PPG1 model.
• Honeywell Spectra Cut-Resistant Liner: The palm is lined with high-tenacity Spectra polyethylene fiber, providing Level D blade cut resistance under CE EN388:2016 and reliable protection against cuts during searches.
• Embossed Synthetic Suede Palm: The textured palm surface delivers a firm, non-slip grip during searches, vehicle operations, and evidence handling across variable conditions.
• Neoprene and Nylon Spandex Back: The laminated dorsal surface breathes and flexes to keep hands cool and comfortable during extended shifts, and maintains a close fit without restricting hand movement.
• Hook and Loop Wrist Closure: The adjustable Velcro-style closure provides a snug, secure fit that stays locked during active use.
• CE EN420:2003 / EN388:2016 Certified: Rated 3X42D on the main glove body, with the ArmorTip system earning an additional Level 4 fingertip puncture certification under EN388:2016.
• Full Size Range XS Through 3XL: Seven sizes fit virtually every hand using a simple palm circumference measurement method.
• Material Composition: 40% Polyester, 25% Polyethylene (Honeywell Spectra), 13% Neoprene, 10% Nylon, 10% Aramid (Kevlar), 2% Other.
• Manufactured in Indonesia under Hatch quality standards as part of the Safariland Group.

Safety Warning: Cut-resistant is not cut-proof. Puncture-resistant is not puncture-proof. Puncture resistance and needlestick resistance are not equivalent features, and a puncture-resistant rating offers no indication of needlestick resistance. The PPG2 provides increased puncture resistance at the fingertips. All resistance data is captured in a controlled laboratory setting and is intended to allow comparison of potential glove performance, not to guarantee performance in real-world applications. Use common sense and exercise caution when encountering potential hazards.

Compatibility

The Hatch PPG2 is designed for standard duty environments and fits both hands. To find the right size, wrap a flexible tape around your dominant hand at its widest point just below the knuckles, keep your hand flat and fingers together, and round up to the nearest inch. The Hatch size chart matches palm measurements as follows:

• XS: 6 inches (15.2 cm)
• Small: 7 inches (17.8 cm)
• Medium: 8 inches (20 cm)
• Large: 9 inches (23 cm)
• X-Large: 10 inches (25 cm)
• 2X-Large: 11 inches (28 cm)
• 3X-Large: 12 inches (30.5 cm)

When your measurement falls between sizes, choose the larger size for a more comfortable fit and better dexterity.

The PPG2 is suited for searches, detentions, and general duty operations where contact with sharps, blades, and rough surfaces is a known hazard. It is not rated for certified needlestick protection, chemical resistance, or flame resistance. The ArmorTip system provides enhanced puncture resistance specifically at the fingertips and is not a substitute for gloves carrying a dedicated hypodermic needlestick rating in clinical or biohazard environments.

Intended Users

The Hatch PPG2 is the everyday search glove for professionals who put their hands in dangerous places as part of the job.

Law enforcement patrol officers reach for the PPG2 during pat-down searches and suspect processing, where concealed needles, razor blades, and broken glass are constant hazards. The Spectra liner and ArmorTip fingertips provide meaningful protection during the moments that matter most.

Correctional officers working in detention and jail facilities face repeated exposure to improvised weapons and contraband. The PPG2's combination of dexterity and multi-layered protection makes it the right choice for cell searches and inmate handling.

Security guards and private security personnel who manage access control, conduct bag checks, or perform patron searches rely on the PPG2 as protection that does not restrict their ability to operate radios, handle documents, or communicate effectively.

Military and special operations personnel use the PPG2 during field searches and detainee operations, where sharps exposure is unpredictable and protective gloves must not compromise hand function or trigger discipline.

EMS providers and first responders working high-risk calls, accident scenes, and crime scenes benefit from the PPG2 as a durable secondary barrier against debris, glass, and environmental sharps when clinical gloves alone are not sufficient.
