Snickers Flex Sense All weather Gloves 9319
Two things that are quintessential to working in freezing environments are cold protection, and flexibility, which are both things that the Snickers Flex Sense All weather Gloves 9319 provide in abundance. By combining flexibility with protection, you can increase productivity in tasks such as freezer work, cold store work and outdoor winter work.
How Much Cold Resistance do the Snickers Flex Grip Gloves Provide?
The Snickers Flex Sense All Weather Gloves will continue to provide protection to the cold in temperatures that are as low as -30°C. Their level 3 contact cold resistance is proof of their quality, while their acrylic liner will ensure that the gloves stay flexible even at low temperatures. These gloves are the perfect gloves for handling tasks in sub-zero temperatures.
How Much Flexibility Do the Snickers Sense ALl Weather Gloves Provide?
At low temperatures, flexibility is incredibly important. Cold conditions can make your gloves become stiff and start to freeze, so it's important that you wear safety gloves that prevent this from happening. The latex liner on these gloves helps them to stay flexible even at the lowest temperatures, perfect for tasks in freezers and cold stores.
What Tasks are the Snickers Flex Sense Gloves Suitable For?

Why Should I Trust the Snickers Flex Grip Gloves 9313?
The Snickers Flex All Weather Gloves have been tested under EN Standards to ensure that they provide the level of protection that they say they do, and that you expect. They have been tested to EN 388 (mechanical resistance), and EN 511 (cold resistance). Their results can be seen below:
EN 388
Hazard | Resistance Rating |
Abrasion Resistance | Level 2 |
Cut Resistance | Level 2 |
Tear Resistance | Level 2 |
Puncture Resistance | Level 2 |
EN 511
Property | Performance Level |
Convective Cold | N/A |
Contact Cold | Level 3 |
Water Permeability | N/A |
What Does This Mean?
Under both EN 388 and EN 511, the scores achieved relate to how good the gloves are at resisting that hazard. As you can see, they offer good all-round resistance to abrasion, tears and punctures, meaning that they are as durable as they are protective.
Alternatively, the gloves offer exceptional resistance to contact cold resistance, however they weren't tested to convective cold resistance or water permeability. For more information on EN 388 and EN 511, please see the tabs at the top of the page.

What is EN 388?
You might have noticed that this product adheres to EN standard EN 388. EN standards ensure that the product you are buying meets the safety standards of the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), the highest standards organisation recognised by and working on behalf of the European Union. To pass any EN standard, a PPE product must undergo some of the most rigorous safety tests around.
There are many EN standards that our gloves adhere to. However, the EN standard that we’re concerned about here is EN 388. EN 388 stands for Mechanical Resistance, and informs you of your gloves' resistance to abrasion, cuts, tears and punctures.
How Do I Read the EN 388 Score?
Simply speaking, the higher the score that this product achieves, the better the product will be at resisting that hazard. Products will score between Level 0 and Level 4 for abrasion, tears and punctures, and if they weren’t tested for that hazard you will see N/A written instead of a number.
Cuts are a little different and, with the EN 388 standard rewritten in 2016, it means that gloves will either be tested to cut resistance or ISO cut resistance (sometimes called TDM cut resistance). Gloves tested to cut resistance will score between Level 0 and Level 5, and gloves tested to ISO cut resistance will achieve a score between Level A and Level F with the higher letter offering better cut protection.

What is EN 511?
You might have noticed that this product adheres to EN standard EN 511. EN standards ensure that the product you are buying meets the safety standards of the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), the highest standards organisation recognised by and working on behalf of the European Union. To pass any EN standard, a PPE product must undergo some of the most rigorous safety tests around.
There are many EN standards that our gloves adhere to. However, the EN standard that we’re concerned about here is EN 511. EN 511 stands for all things cold, and means that your gloves have been tested for their convective cold resistance, contact cold resistance and water permeability properties.
How Do I Read the EN 511 Score?
Simply speaking, the higher the score achieved the better the product will be at resisting the hazard tested. For the first two tests (convective cold resistance and contact cold resistance), the product will achieve between a Level 0 and a Level 4. The higher the score the better the resistance, with a Level 0 score meaning that it failed and an N/A score meaning that the product wasn’t tested for this hazard.
For water permeability the product will achieve either a Level 0 or a Level 1. Level 1 means that the product is waterproof, and Level 0 means that it isn't.
