Protection according to EN ISO 11393

A chainsaw processes more material in a fraction of a second than a sharp knife, and that risk does not disappear by working carefully. Chainsaw clothing consists of multiple layers of cut-resistant fabric that grip and slow down the chain before it cuts through the fabric. This category brings together chainsaw-resistant trousers and complete overalls, tested according to EN ISO 11393.

Which part needs the most protection?

The front of the thighs is at the greatest risk during chainsaw work. Choose chainsaw trousersfor ground-based work, or a complete chainsaw overallif you are also sawing above shoulder height. Combine this with cut-resistant gloves, a helmet with a visor and hearing protection from our collection of forestry clothing.

Frequently asked questions

What does the class on the EN ISO 11393 label mean?

The class indicates the chain speed at which the fabric was tested, for example class 1 at 20 m/s. A higher class means protection against a faster, heavier saw. Always check that the class of your clothing matches the chain speed of your saw.

Does chainsaw clothing protect against every chainsaw?

No, the protection is limited to the tested chain speed of that class. A heavier professional saw with a higher chain speed requires a higher class. Check the label on both the clothing and the saw before making a choice.

Should I choose chainsaw trousers or a complete coverall?

Chainsaw trousers protect the legs and are lighter and cooler for ground-level work. A coverall protects the whole body in one piece without a vulnerable seam at the waist, which is more comfortable for work above shoulder height or in dense undergrowth.
