Protection Ratings
EN 388
EN 388 is a European regulation governing the sale of gloves used for safety and protection. It determines the gloves' performance when used for protection against mechanical machinery by measuring the fabric's abrasion, cut, tear and puncture resistance.
The EN 388 cut resistance test uses a single sharp implement to repeatedly pressure a glove in order to determine the amount of force required to cause visible and functional damage.
Standard | Resistance Rating |
Abrasion Resistance | Level 4 |
Cut Resistance | N/A |
Tear Resistance | Level 4 |
Puncture Resistance | Level 3 |
ISO Cut Resistance | Level F |
Maximum Level F Cut Resistance
Level F cut resistance is mandatory for extrication. Parts, material, metal and debris can cause serious slashing and cuts to your hand. A Level F rating ensures your hands are guarded against an excess of 30 newtons of downward pressure applied by a sharp implement.
Ideal Applications of HexArmor EXT 4011 Extrication Gloves
With a range of different features that offer protection to your hands, the HexArmor EXT 4011 Extrication Gloves are suitable for multiple purpose including:
Physically Resistant Palm
Handling glass, blades and sheet metal means you need your gloves to go above and beyond. HexArmor EXT 4011 Extrication Gloves use SuperFabric material at the palm, providing maximum EN 388 Level F cut resistance. This makes the gloves ideal for dealing with extremely sharp edges for example glass and blades.
Superb Grip for Better Control
The palm on HexArmor EXT 4011 Extrication Gloves is manufactured with slightly raised, printed PVC synthetic leather that provides greater grip in dry or light oil situations. On top of this, the Durable TP-X palm reinforcement patches (which are primarily for abrasion resistance) also help to ensure that the outer layer of the palm has an oil-resistant grip.
Full Impact Exo-Skeleton
Though cutting is the threat that most people worry about, it is just as important to consider and guard against the effects of impact. HexArmor EXT 4011 Extrication Gloves feature high-performance IR-X smash guards that provide excellent impact protection. Also, due to the pre-curve design, though the gloves offer great protection, they do not limit or hamper your dexterity and flexibility.
SuperFabric HexArmor Protection
Serious about heavy-duty protection, SuperFabric was developed in 1996 as a solution for preventing needle and knife incisions. It is the layer that prevents a serrated edge, needle or blade end from breaking through your glove and causing serious injury to your hand.
Quality Construction for Durability
It doesn't matter how much protection your gloves provide you with if they don't have the durability to hold up to repeated use. HexArmor EXT 4011 Extrication Gloves are designed to last for a long time. They have internal and external seams that use double-stitched, core-spun thread to reinforce against rips, tears and splitting. They also include a reinforced saddle between the index finger and thumb.
HexArmor Practical Design
HexArmor have taken the unique needs and considerations of emergency workers into consideration when designing HexArmor EXT 4011 Extrication Gloves. The breathable Neoprene cuff has a Velcro closure that makes the glove both more comfortable and more secure.
High Visibility Color Scheme and Design
HexArmor EXT 4011 Extrication Gloves also have a high-visibility design that is great for emergency workers who work in the dark near dangerous areas.
