Protection Ratings
EN 388
EN 388 is a European regulation governing the sale of garments used for safety and protection. It determines the fabrics' performance when used for protection against mechanical machinery by measuring for abrasion, cut, tear and puncture resistance.
The EN 388 cut resistance test uses a single sharp implement to repeatedly pressure a garment in order to determine the amount of force required to cause visible and functional damage.
Standard | Resistance Rating |
Abrasion Resistance | Level 4 |
Cut Resistance | N/A |
Tear Resistance | Level 2 |
Puncture Resistance | Level 1 |
ISO Cut Resistance | Level F |
Applications of the Penta Armor 1010 Arm Sleeve
Offering protection to the arm whilst carrying out physical tasks, the Penta Armor 1010 Arm Sleeve is suitable for multiple purposes, including:
Cut-Resistant Material
The Penta Armor 1010 Arm Sleeve is made from SuperFabric brand materials. This fabric provides industry-leading cut resistance, meaning the sleeve is ideal for anybody looking for high protection against cuts when working with wires, metal, wood, and glass.
Incredible Level F Resistance
Every year millions are spent on covering hospital and medical fees resulting from avoidable cut related workplace accidents. Level F resistance means a sharp blade would have to exert over 30 newtons of downward force to cause fabric damage to this sleeve. That's the difference between serious, life threatening injury and a blade getting jammed in between strong, resistant fibres.
High Visibility
The Arm Sleeve features a high-visibility colour scheme. The bright green hi-vis material allows the sleeve to be more easily seen, making it more practical for use in darker environments. This will help to eliminate the risk of receiving cuts and abrasions when handling sharp objects.
Launderable and Breathable
Washing your sleeve after use couldn't be easier. Simply machine wash on a cool water cycle for use over and over again. We recommend you turn the sleeve inside out to avoid damage to your drier/washing machine.

How Securely Does a HexArmor Sleeve Fit?
The Penta Armor 1010 Arm Sleeve is designed to fit securely on the arm. When the correct size is worn, it is unlikely to fall or slip down the arm. It features a thumb loop and sleeve clip to help keep the arm guard in place, making it a safer and more secure option for wearing when handling potentially dangerous objects.
