Standards and labels
EN 407:2020 is a European standard that specifies the safety requirements for protective gloves for thermal risks. It sets rules for the design, construction, and testing of gloves that protect users from heat and fire. Testing includes measurements of contact heat, convective heat, radiant heat, small splashes of molten metal, and flame resistance. The standard also includes requirements for labeling and instructions for use. This standard is an updated version of EN 407:2004, it includes new requirements, testing methods and performance levels to ensure that the gloves provide better protection against thermal risks such as heat, fire and molten metal splash.
Test results
Heat Convection Level XIn the context of EU standard EN 407:2020, a test result signifying Heat Convection Level X indicates that the protective glove tested either did not meet the minimum requirements or was not tested under this criterion. It's vital to interpret such a label as the absence of certified protection against convection heat, which may involve exposure to energetically transferred heat via fluids or gases. The test method used to determine the Heat Convection Level involves measuring the time it takes for heat to transfer from a heated aluminum cylinder through the glove material to the inner surface where it might contact skin, as specified in the standard. The testing apparatus measures the rise in temperature inside the glove to assess its heat insulating properties. Practical implications of achieving 'Level X' in convection heat test suggest that the product is either unsuitable for environments where convection heat is a risk, or it necessitates further testing to ascertain its protective capabilities in specific conditions, crucial information for procurement decisions in safety-related industries.
Heat Contact Level 2The EN 407:2020 standard revolves around the specification for protective gloves against thermal risks, such as heat and flame. A entry marked as Heat Contact result Level 2 indicates gloves that provide moderate protection against contact with heat, capable of resisting a specific temperature of up to 250°C for a minimum exposure time determined by the Level 2 requirements. This protective level is tested primarily to ensure that users of these gloves can safely handle moderately hot surfaces without sustaining heat injuries. During the test for Heat Contact, a sample glove segment is exposed to a heat source at a specific temperature, and the time taken for the temperature inside the glove to increase by a set number of degrees (typically by 24°C) is measured. This result implies that these gloves offer sufficient protection for tasks involving significant but not extreme temperatures, making them suitable for various industrial, mechanical, and cooking operations where intermediate heat protection is necessary.
Burning Behaviour Level XThe EN 407:2020 standard's specified test result Level X for Burning Behaviour indicates that either the test was not conducted or the sample was not applicable for testing under this specific parameter. Consequently, no performance level can be assigned according the criteria set in the standard. This finding is part of a broader testing protocol where Thermal Hazards Protection levels are determined for materials, especially used in gloves intended for heat handling. The test method evaluates the material’s ability to resist catching fire and its rate of burning. To assess burning behavior, the sample is exposed to a small flame, and observations are made on whether it ignites, how long it burns after the flame is removed, and how it extinguishes. Practical implications for products that receive a Level X for Burning Behaviour could include uncertainty in performance when faced with thermal hazards, thus impacting their suitability for jobs involving high temperatures or direct contact with flames.
Metal Splash Resistance Level XThe EN 407:2020 standard specifies different levels of protection for gloves against thermal risks, including metal splash resistance. A result marked as 'Level X' under this standard symbolizes that the glove material either did not meet the minimum requirements for testing or that no specific test was conducted for this hazard. The test for Metal Splash Resistance in EN 407:2004 involves exposing the glove material to molten metal splashes to determine how much molten metal is required to heat the glove material to a degree that it would cause risks to the wearer. The practical implication of a 'Level X' rating is that gloves marked as such should not be relied upon for protection against risks of molten metal splashes, making them unsuitable for use in environments where exposure to this hazard is likely.
Radiant Heat Level XEN 407:2020 is a European standard that sets the requirements for protective gloves to defend against various thermal hazards, including radiant heat. The designation Radiant Heat Level X indicates that the gloves have not been tested for this specific type of protection, or they did not meet the minimum criteria established by the standard for resisting radiant heat. This means that these gloves are not certified for protection against radiant heat, which involves the transmission of heat through infrared rays from a heat source without direct contact. The lack of a specific radiant heat protection level suggests that users should not rely on these gloves for tasks where significant exposure to radiant heat is expected. Instead, these gloves might be suitable for other types of thermal risks for which they are certified, ensuring users select the appropriate type of protective glove based on the specific hazards present in their working environment. This classification assists in preventing inappropriate glove use and enhancing worker safety by clearly indicating the limitations of the glove's protective capabilities.
Molten Metal Resistance Level XEN 407:2020 is a European standard that provides specifications for protective gloves to safeguard against thermal risks, including the exposure to molten metals. The designation Molten Metal Resistance Level X indicates that the gloves have not been tested for this specific risk, or they failed to meet the minimum requirements set out in the standard for protection against molten metal splashes. This means that the gloves are either unsuitable for use in environments where there is a risk of contact with molten metals, or additional testing is required to determine their suitability. Typically, such a classification implies that the gloves should not be used for handling molten metals and should only be considered for other types of thermal risks specified in the standard, where molten metal exposure is not a concern. This classification helps in ensuring that users select the right type of glove based on the specific hazards present in their working environment, thereby preventing inappropriate use and enhancing safety.

General Requirements GuideEN ISO 21420:2020 is a standard that outlines general requirements and guidelines for protective gloves, aiming to ensure their quality, performance, and suitability for various applications. When a product meets the requirements outlined in the General Requirements section of EN ISO 21420:2020, it signifies that the gloves comply with fundamental quality and performance criteria, including factors such as size, fit, ergonomics, and dexterity. The practical implications of this compliance are significant, as it assures users of the gloves' basic functionality and suitability for general hand protection purposes across a range of industries and applications. The test method involves evaluating various aspects of the gloves, including dimensions, construction, materials, and labeling, to ensure conformity with the specified requirements. Compliance with these general requirements enhances user confidence in the protective gloves' reliability and effectiveness, promoting workplace safety and facilitating compliance with regulatory standards.
EN 388:2016 is a European standard for measuring the performance of protective gloves against mechanical risks (abrasion, cut, tear, and puncture). The standard includes test methods and performance requirements for gloves to be considered compliant. Test results are reported using a series of four numbers, each representing the performance level achieved in one of the tests.
Test results
Tear Resistance Level 3EN 388:2016 is a European standard that specifies methods for testing the resistance of protective gloves against mechanical hazards, such as abrasion, cuts, punctures, and tearing. The Tear Resistance Level 3 indicates a high level of protection, where the gloves can withstand significant tearing forces. The test for determining tear resistance involves subjecting the glove material to a mechanical force until it tears, measuring the force required to initiate and continue the tear. For Level 3, gloves must withstand a force between 50 to 75 Newtons before tearing. This robust level of tear resistance is particularly suitable for demanding environments where gloves are exposed to activities that might cause extensive wear or tearing, such as handling heavy or rough materials, industrial assembly, and construction tasks. Gloves with this level of tear resistance provide enhanced durability and safety, reducing the risk of injuries and increasing the longevity of the glove in tough working conditions.
Puncture Resistance Level 1The European standard EN 388:2016 addresses the puncture resistance of protective gloves, with puncture resistance classified from Levels 1 to 4. Specifically, a Level 1 result indicates minimal puncture resistance. This level of resistance is determined by a test involving a standardized stylus with a specified diameter and force. During the test, the stylus is pressed against the material with a force up to 20 Newtons to assess how well the glove can withstand penetration. A Level 1 rating signifies that the glove provides basic protection against small punctures or stabs, appropriate for areas with minimal risk. Practical implications for this test result suggest the gloves are suitable for light tasks where major risks of punctures are not anticipated, but are not adequate for handling sharp tools or heavy equipment where higher penetration resistance would be necessary.
Cut Resistance, ISO 13997 Level AThe cut resistance result of Level A based on ISO 13997 in the standard EN 388:2016 indicates a force of greater than 2 Newtons required to cut through the material. This is considered the first level on a scale that ranges up to Level F, where each level corresponds to higher thresholds of force needed to penetrate the material, with Level F exceeding 30 Newtons. The testing method employs a TDM test device equipped with a single-use straight edge blade. During the test, the blade is drawn only once across the material in one direction, and once the blade cuts through the sample, the distance the blade has traveled is recorded. This standardized testing ensures that the cut resistance of materials like gloves can be measured more accurately, especially those fabricated from high-cut resistance materials that might blunt a blade. The practical implication of obtaining a result of Level A in this test is that the material provides basic cut protection and is suitable for tasks with minimal cut hazards, such as light material handling or small parts assembly.
Cut Resistance, Coup Test Level 1The EN 388:2016 standard is dedicated to gauging the mechanical risks for hand protection where a Cut Resistance, Coup Test Level 1 indicates minimal resistance to cutting because material achieved between 1.2 and 2.5 cycles before being cut through during the test. It means that the product tested at this level offers basic protection against shallow cuts, suitable for tasks with low risk of cut injuries. The test method used involves a rotating circular blade under a fixed force making contact with the fabric or material being tested. The blade moves back and forth across the material until a cut-through is achieved. The number of cycles required to cut through the sample at a consistent speed determines the cut resistance, with Level 1 being the second lowest rating after level 0. Products at this level are applicable in scenarios where there are minimal hazards from sharp objects, hence ideal for light duties where there is no significant risk of deep cuts.
Abrasion Resistance Level 4EN 388:2016 uses a specific test method to measure abrasion resistance of safety gloves; the gloves’ material is subjected to sandpaper under pressure to observe the number of cycles needed to wear through the material. Level 4 in this standard indicates that the material withstood 8,000 cycles before a hole was made. Practically, this means that gloves rated at Level 4 for abrasion resistance offer very high resilience against wearing through, making them suitable for tasks involving significant contact with rough surfaces .
