FULDA ALU Welding Gloves, Size 10

Standards and labels

• EN 407:2004

  Gloves with the EN 407:2004 rating are tested for protection against various thermal risks including flammability, contact heat, convective heat, radiant heat, and splashes of molten metal. This means you can choose gloves that offer certified protection against specific heat and fire hazards for your safety.

  Test results

  Heat Convection Level 1

  Provides basic, short-term protection against heat transferred from an open flame. This glove delays heat penetration for a few seconds when briefly exposed to fire, suitable for situations with a low risk of encountering flames.

  Radiant Heat Level X

  This product was not tested for protection against radiant heat, which is intense heat that can be felt from a distance. It does not claim to offer protection for tasks involving prolonged exposure to radiant heat sources.

  Metal Splash Resistance Level 4

  Provides the highest level of protection against large splashes of molten metal, tested to resist amounts greater than 200 grams. This makes it essential for high-risk industrial jobs like foundry work and heavy welding.

  Molten Metal Resistance Level X

  This product has not been tested for resistance against splashes of molten metal. It provides no claimed protection and should not be used for welding, foundry work, or other tasks with molten metal risks.

  Heat Contact Level 2

  This product provides protection from contact heat up to 250°C for at least 15 seconds. It is ideal for tasks where you might briefly handle hot items, such as in kitchens or workshops.

  Burning Behaviour Level 4

  Provides the highest level of protection against catching fire when exposed to a naked flame. After the flame is removed, the material will stop burning within 2 seconds and stop glowing within 5 seconds.

• EN 388:2016

  Protective gloves with the EN 388:2016 rating are tested for resistance against mechanical risks like abrasion, cuts, tears, punctures, and optional impact. This rating helps you quickly identify and choose gloves that offer the right level of protection for your hands during various tasks.

  Test results

  Cut Resistance, ISO 13997 Level X

  Provides the highest level of cut protection, passing a specialized test for materials that dull blades.

  Cut Resistance, Coup Test Level 1

  Provides minimal protection against cuts from a rotating blade under constant, low force.

  Abrasion Resistance Level 3

  Provides good resistance against scraping, scratching, and rubbing on rough or abrasive surfaces.

  Tear Resistance Level 4

  Offers the highest level of protection against tearing, withstanding a strong force before ripping.

  Puncture Resistance Level 3

  Withstands strong pressure from sharp objects like nails or thick splinters.

• EN 420:2003+A1:2009

  Protective gloves with the EN 420:2003+A1:2009 rating are tested for general design, safe materials (innocuousness), water penetration, comfort, and dexterity. This ensures the gloves are safe, fit correctly, and allow you to perform tasks effectively without discomfort.

• PPE Category 2

  PPE stands for "personal protective equipment." PPE Category 2 refers to equipment that is more complex, and has a higher level of risk. Examples of PPE Category 2 include safety helmets, ear protection, and fall arrest equipment. In Europe, PPE Category 2 must meet certain safety standards set by the European Union, which means that it must be designed and manufactured to protect the user without causing harm. Companies that make or sell PPE must prove that it meets these standards. They also must have a quality management system in place and have to be audited regularly by a notified body.
