Standard for Protection Against Mechanical Risks: EN388

This standard applies to all gloves resistant to physical and mechanical damage, such as abrasion, cutting, puncture, and tearing. It does not apply to anti-vibration gloves.

Performance Ratings:

• Puncture resistance (0 to 4): Force required to penetrate the sample with a standard spike

• Tear resistance (0 to 4): Force required to tear the sample

• Blade cut resistance (0 to 5): Number of cycles required to cut through the sample at a constant speed

• Abrasion resistance (0 to 4): Number of cycles required to wear through the sample at a constant speed

These protective performance evaluations are determined based on the data listed in the table below, allowing you to compare the performance of various glove products. These data are derived from laboratory test results and are for reference only. They do not replace the actual performance verified in real operational processes.
