Property Resistance Level
Abrasion Resistance Level 4
Cut Resistance Level 1
Tear Resistance Level 2
Puncture Resistance Level 1
ISO Cut Resistance Level A

What Do the Resistance Ratings Mean?

The resistance ratings are tested in accordance with EN 388. Level 4 is the highest performance (except for Cut Resistance, which reaches Level 5), and Level 1 is the lowest resistance to be scored.

As such, the Edge 48-126 gloves provide great abrasion resistance and good tear resistance. For more information, please see the 'What Is EN 388?' tab at the top of the listing.

How Protective Are the Ansell 48-126 Edge Gloves?

The Ansell Edge 48-126 Gloves offer exceptional level 4 abrasion resistance, meaning that you can handle items all day long without damage to the gloves. Despite their lightweight nature, the seamless design improves tear resistance, both protecting the hands from knocks and scrapes and improving the longevity of the gloves. Finally, their oil, grease and light water resistance is perfect for a range of harsher, more industrial conditions, helping to protect the hands against risks associated with slipping, grip and poor dexterity.

The Ansell Edge 48-126 Gloves are about as dexterous as a pair of gloves can get, with their seamless 15 gauge liner offering superb flexibility. The level of flexibility that these gloves offer makes them perfect for tasks such as:

  • Tactile tasks
  • Handling materials

How Durable Are the Ansell Edge 48-126 Work Gloves?

Despite their thin and dexterous design, the Ansell Edge 48-126 Gloves are surprisingly durable, with level 4 abrasion resistance meaning that despite their price, they will last through a long day on shift. A PU coating allows you to handle all kinds of items without damage to the gloves, including those with more rough and coarse corners and edges. For tasks found in assembly, engineering and mechanics, these gloves are ideal.

How Comfortable Are the Ansell 48-126 Gloves?

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.

Where Can I Find Out More?

This is just a brief overview of EN standard EN 388 so you know where you are standing. For further information, you can see the Introductory EN 388 Blog in our Knowledge Centre.

Comfortable, practical
27 January 2020  | 

I bought these as an "upgrade" to disposable nitrile gloves (which I still use.)
These are about 3 times the price, per pair, but re-usable, tougher palm area (but still a decent level of "touch"), and washable (I used household detergent.)
I use for general home workshop stuff, handling metal, keeping grease and chemicals off, etc. Would work for gardening as well I reckon.
One comment, they have a fairly porous, fabric back so anything chemical, grease, or gardeing thorns can still get to the BACK of your hand, nitrile give a better overall protection in that respect. For 80p well worth it.
