EN388:2016 Protective gloves against mechanical risks.
The EN388: 2003 standard is renamed EN388: 2016, the year of its revision. The reason for the modification is given by the discrepancies in the results between laboratories in the knife cut test, COUP TEST. Materials with high levels of cut produce a dulling effect on the circular blades, which undermines the result.

The new regulation was published in November 2016 and the previous one is from the year 2003. During these 13 years, there has been a great innovation in the materials for the manufacture of cutting gloves, they have forced to introduce changes in the tests to be able to measure with more rigorous levels of protection.

Clase 1 / Diseño A / Tipo 2

The minimum levels required for the EN388 standard are as follows:

Abrasion resistance 2

Cut resistance 1

Tear resistance 2

Puncture resistance 2

Protection against chainsaw cutting should be evaluated with the following chainsaw speeds.

CLASS	SPEEDS
0	16 m/s
1	20 m/s
2	24 m/s
3	28 m/s

Classification by type

TYPE1 Protection against chainsaw cutting in both right and left hands.

TYPE2 Chain cut protection only on left hand. The right hand has no cut protection.

Design A

Only applicable for gloves with cut protection in the metacarpal area, but not on fingers or thumb.

Design B

Applicable to gloves and 3-finger mitts incorporating, in addition to design A protection, the back of the fingers (except thumb).

Main changes with previous standard:
Requirements that in EN381-7 were optional, cleaning, dexterity and water vapour permeation and absorption, become mandatory. It becomes mandatory to measure dexterity by means of a grip test essay on a bar with a pressure sensor.
Water vapour permeation is mandatory for coated gloves.In the cutting test, the changes are: Pre-treatment – cleaning according to the Manufacturer’s instructions. The number of cuts significantly increases the number of cuts and the areas. All of them are mandatory.
