Instructions for use
The glove types named here meet the requirements of Regulation (EU) 2016/425
as brought into UK law and amended, EN ISO 374-1:2016+A1:2018, EN
388:2016+A1:2018, and EN ISO 21420:2020. As the gloves are adjusted for
special purposes, the lengths may deviate from the requirements of EN ISO
21420:2020.
Results of mechanical tests according to EN388:2016 + A1:2018 :
| Abrasion resistance: | 4 (min 0 / max 4) |
|---|---|
| Blade cut resistance (Coupe-Test): | 1 (min 0 / max 5) |
| Tear resistance: | 3 (min 0 / max 4) |
| Puncture resistance: | 1 (min 0 / max 4) |
| Blade cut resistance (TDM): | X (min A/max F) |
The sign X, instead of a number, means that the glove is not designed for the
use covered by the corresponding test. 0 indicates that the glove falls below
the minimum performance for the given individual hazard.
Results of chemical tests according to EN ISO 374-1:2016 + A1:2018

Dexterity: Level 5
Warning/risk assessment:
a) Gloves to protect against mechanical action whose effects are superficial,
substances and mixtures which are hazardous to health, and harmful biological
agents. Important: The gloves are recommended for use in situations where only
low chemical protection is identified as needed.
b) While selecting equipment, the user should perform risk analysis based on
the intended use and determine suitability based on the product’s test
standards and protection levels obtained.
c) Information provided does not reflect the actual duration of protection in
the workplace due to other factors influencing the performance, such as
temperature, abrasion, and degradation, and the differentiation between
mixtures and pure chemicals.
d) Information regarding protection refers to the working surface, i.e. ‘the
palm’ of the glove, which has been submitted to testing.
e) Ensure gloves are in good condition (no holes, tears, or porous spots)
before use. If any damage is found avoid usage.
f) The chemical resistance has been assessed under laboratory conditions from
samples taken from the palm only (except in cases where the glove is equal to
or over 400 mm – where the cuff is tested also) and relates only to the
chemical tested. It can be different if the chemical is used in a mixture. g)
It is recommended to check that the gloves are suitable for the intended use
because the conditions at the workplace may differ from the type of test
depending on temperature, abrasion and degradation.
h) When used, protective gloves may provide less resistance to dangerous
chemicals due to changes in physical properties. Movements, snagging, rubbing,
degradation caused by chemical contact, etc. may reduce the actual use time
significantly. For corrosive chemicals, degradation can be the most important
factor to consider in the selection of chemical-resistant gloves.
i) The maximum wear time depends on the activity being carried out and the
person.
j) EN ISO 374-4:2019 Degradation levels indicate the change in puncture
resistance of the gloves after exposure to the challenge chemical.
k) The penetration resistance has been assessed under laboratory conditions
and relates only to the tested specimen.
l) This product contains Nitrile Latex and compounding chemicals which may
cause allergic reactions in some individuals.
m) The glove offers no protection against perforation with sharp objects, e.g.
injection needles.
n) Gloves are not to be worn when there is a risk of entanglement by moving
parts of machines.
o) Remove the glove immediately if contaminated by a concentrated spill
Donning:
Insert the hand into the glove carefully without damaging the glove.
Doffing:
- Grasp the outside of the glove from the wrist area
- Peel the glove away from the hand, hold it in the opposite gloved hand
- Slide an un-gloved finger under the wrist of the remaining glove, being careful not to touch the contaminated surface of the glove
- Peel the remaining glove out and clean the reusable gloves before using them again.
Additional information will be supplied upon request. The gloves can be used in the chemical industry, petrochemical industry, automotive industry, aircraft industry, and facility maintenance. Instructions for
Use : Wipe clean with warm water. Remove the glove immediately if contaminated by a concentrated spill.
Storage : Store away from direct sunlight. Storage procedures are the main factor in determining glove shelf life. Gloves should be kept in their packaging store away from direct sunlight and stored at temperatures between 5 °C – 35 °C. Storage under these conditions should provide a shelf life of three years.
