Protective Standards for Kutlass Cut Resistant Gloves PU500
EN 388
EN 388 is a European regulation governing the sale of gloves used for safety and protection. It determines the gloves' performance when used whilst working in and around mechanical machinery by measuring abrasion, cut, tear and puncture resistance.
The EN 388 cut resistance test uses a single sharp implement to repeatedly pressure a glove in order to determine the amount of force required to cause visible and functional damage.
| Standard | Resistance Level |
| Abrasion Resistance | Level 4 |
| Cut Resistance | N/A |
| Tear Resistance | Level 4 |
| Puncture Resistance | Level 2 |
| ISO Cut Resistance | Level C |
What Do These Standards Mean?
With maximum Level 4 abrasion and tear resistance, Kutlass PU500 Gloves are built to last. Their cut-resistant fibres not only ensure your gloves wont split on you; they provide high level protection against blades, machine parts, knives, sharp and serrated edges and jagged material.
Key Features and Benefits
- Level C cut-resistance rating protects the hand against sharp material
- Maximum Level 4 abrasion and tear resistance ratings
- Highly dexterous design promotes flexibility and precision when handling tools and parts
- Innovative "Sanitized" formula works to eliminate bacteria whilst you work
- Polyurethane coating enhances grip strength and stability
- Available in four different sizes for a guaranteed perfect fit
Applications for the Kutlass Cut Resistant Gloves PU500
Please view the list below to see which environments, applications and lines of work the Kutlass Cut Resistant PU500 Gloves suit:
Ideal for Handling Professionals
Whether you work in a warehouse or a yard, you want gloves that wont let you down and that enhance your ability to get the job done. Kutlass PU500 Safety Gloves have a maximum Level 4 abrasion and tear resistance rating, allowing you to lift, carry, move and load material all day long without worrying about tearing and fabric splitting.
Why Is Cut Resistance Important?
Kutlass PU500 Gloves come with a Level C cut-resistance rating, meaning they are capable of withstanding a maximum of 15 newtons of downward force applied by a sharp object. This level of cut resistance allows the user to handle metal, jagged timber, machine parts, standard glass and rubble without worrying about damaging your hands.
What Are the Benefits of Polyurethane?
Polyurethane is a tried and tested material that is incredibly flexible and is used in the manufacture of gloves worldwide. A polyurethane coating excels in damp conditions, as it uses tiny pores in the material to soak up sweat, damp and liquid that do not appear to the naked eye.
Without a polyurethane coating, these tiny microbial specs can compromise grip strength, resulting in drops, damaged product and injury.
Innovative "Sanitized" Microbial Fabric Formula
The "Sanitized" fabric hygiene system helps to reduce the growth and spread of microorganisms that are particularly problematic, such as clostridia and other antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This is particularly beneficial to work gloves because of the build up sweat and the risk of cross contamination from hand to face throughout the day.

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.

This is just a brief overview of EN standard EN 388 so you know where you are standing. For further information, you can see the Introductory EN 388 Blog in our Knowledge Centre.
