Turtleskin CP Neon Insider 430 Safety Gloves

The Turtleskin CP Neon 430 Safety Gloves are the perfect choice when working in applications in which hands are exposed to dangerous objects with more than 400 grams of hypodermic needle resistance. Specifically designed for applications that require an excellent grip and enhanced dexterity, the Turtleskin 430 gloves will allow you to perform your job whilst still providing protection and remaining cut and tear resistant. These safety gloves are supplied in pairs.

Utilises Turtleskin Material

Ultra thin Turtleskin material means the Turtleskin CP 430 gloves can be worn as a liner glove inside other safety or disposable gloves to increase protection. Light, breathable and almost impenetrable, the Turtleskin fabric has the world's tightest weave and is so diverse and strong that it has been used by everyone from law enforcement, to the military, to NASA. 

Aramid Fibre For Sharps Protection

Aramid material is woven tight to provide superior protection from sharp objects including metal shards, needlesticks, knives and glass fragments. This tight weave prevents lateral fibre and inter-fibre shifting.

Palm and Fingertip Puncture Protection

The gloves also feature additional puncture protection the the palm and fingertips making the gloves the perfect choice for applications where you may come into contact with fine metal, wire, glass and needles. Turtleskin use a 28 Gauge needle to test the resistance of their glove range. The needle is aimed at the glove at a 90 degree angle, at a velocity of 500mm/min. This is repeated 12 times and the average force required to puncture the glove is then recorded.

Testing of the Turtleskin CP Neon Insider 430 Safety Gloves

The Turtleskin CP Neon Insider 430 Safety Gloves feature a high abrasion resistance, tear and cut resistance and meet the requirements of EN388 Cut Level 5.

Sizing Information for Turtleskin CP 430 Gloves

In order to select the correct glove size, wrap a measuring tape around your hand, just below the knuckles at the fullest part (excluding your thumb) then measure the length of your middle finger from the tip to the bottom of your palm. Then compare your measurement with the chart below to ensure that you select the correct size of glove for your hand.

Where your measurement falls on the boundary of two sizes, we would recommend selecting the larger of the two sizes for a comfortable fit and to ensure accurate protection.

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.
