Choosing the right level

Cut levels range from A (light) to F (very high) according to the ISO 13997 test. For warehouse and assembly work, B is usually sufficient; for sheet metal, glass and knives, choose C or D; and for metalworking or meat processing, E or F. The highest level isn't automatically the best: the higher it goes, the thicker and stiffer the glove, and a glove that comes off protects nothing.

Cut-resistant isn't stab-resistant

A cut-resistant glove withstands a knife sliding across the material, but doesn't stop a straight stabbing blow; separate chainmail gloves exist for that. When working with heavy material, combine with impact protection, and use a safety knife when unpacking boxes.

Frequently asked questions

What cut level do I need?

For warehouse and assembly work, level B is usually enough; for sheet metal, glass and knives, choose C or D; and for heavy cut risk such as metalworking or meat processing, E or F. Don't default to the highest: a thick glove that comes off because it's awkward to work in protects nothing.

Why does an X sometimes appear in the EN 388 code?

An X means that test wasn't performed or doesn't apply. With highly cut-resistant materials, the old coupe test blunts the blade, making the result unreliable; in that case an X is shown and the letter from the ISO 13997 test is the determining value.

What is a cut-resistant sleeve?

A cut-resistant sleeve is a separate protective cover for the forearm, made of the same type of cut-resistant yarn as the gloves. You wear it over your own sleeve or on the bare arm, in combination with a glove. Such a sleeve is useful when handling sheet material and glass, where the wrist and forearm can brush against sharp edges.

Why are some gloves sold per 144 pairs or per 12?

The Automaat variants are intended for vending machines and are supplied per 144 pairs. For models with pk12 in the name, you buy a pack of 12 pairs. So pay attention to the packaging unit in the product name, so you can estimate how many you need per employee or per department.
