How Can the Ansell 11-651 Gloves Protect My Hands?

These gloves are useful for protecting the hands from a variety of mechanical risks. The high level of tear resistance enhances the durability and life-span of the gloves, while the excellent level of abrasion and cut resistance helps to protect against cuts and grazes when handling sharp or coarse materials.

Ansell INTERCETP Technology

The cut-resistance of the glove is enhanced using Ansell INTERCEPT Technology. This is a specialised knitting technology which blends engineered, synthetic, and natural fibres into a high-performance yarn that offers cut resistance, comfort, and flexibility. To find out more, see the video below:

What is EN 388?

You might have noticed that this product adheres to EN standard EN 388. EN standards ensure that the product you are buying meets the safety standards of the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), the highest standards organisation recognised by and working on behalf of the European Union. To pass any EN standard, a PPE product must undergo some of the most rigorous safety tests around.

There are many EN standards that our gloves adhere to. However, the EN standard that we’re concerned about here is EN 388. EN 388 stands for Mechanical Resistance, and informs you of your gloves' resistance to abrasion, cuts, tears and punctures.

How Do I Read the EN 388 Score?

Simply speaking, the higher the score that this product achieves, the better the product will be at resisting that hazard. Products will score between Level 0 and Level 4 for abrasion, tears and punctures, and if they weren’t tested for that hazard you will see N/A written instead of a number.

Cuts are a little different and, with the EN 388 standard rewritten in 2016, it means that gloves will either be tested to cut resistance or ISO cut resistance (sometimes called TDM cut resistance). Gloves tested to cut resistance will score between Level 0 and Level 5, and gloves tested to ISO cut resistance will achieve a score between Level A and Level F with the higher letter offering better cut protection.
