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.

Incredible Cut Resistance
Cut Level E resistance means that these gloves can withstand an incredible 22 newtons of downward force before showing signs of damage or wear. This is essential if you are handling glass, sharp material, blades or other hazardous and abrasive material.
Sandy Nitrile Coating
Sandy nitrile creates a textured coating that's non-slip and absorbs oils, moisture and other slick, potentially hazardous substances. This enhances grip strength and means you can lift products and material with peace of mind.
