How Much Physical Protection Do the MaxiCut Gloves Provide?
The outstanding mechanical resistance of the MaxiCut Gloves is reflected by their EN 388 ratings. To meet this standard, gloves must undergo a series of physical tests and are then marked based on their abrasion, cut, tear and puncture resistance. The MaxiCut Gloves achieve the following EN 388 ratings:
Hazard | Level of Resistance |
---|
Abrasion Resistance | Level 4 |
Cut Resistance | Level 3 |
Tear Resistance | Level 4 |
Puncture Resistance | Level 2 |
Blade Cut | Level B |

Why Are the MaxiCut Gloves Ideal for Handling?
The MaxiCut Dry Gloves are designed for handling tasks, featuring a flexible and grippy coating that enhances your ability to control and handle the items that you are handling. This level of control is supported by excellent abrasion and tear resistance and good cut resistance, meaning that you can handle rough, sharp and coarse items with your hands protected. The combination in flexibility and protection is perfect for handling tasks, ideal for improving safety and productivity.
How Much Grip Do The MaxiCut Gloves Provide?
The MaxiCut Gloves sustain grip through a special micro-foam coating. This coating is rough and coarse to the touch, meaning that it is more difficult to avoid dropping materials. As the chances of you dropping items are reduced, it means that you can improve your productivity without worrying as much about safety and injury.
Are the MaxiCut Cut Level 3 Gloves Dexterous?
Featuring a lightweight nylon and Spandex blend liner, the MaxiCut Gloves are designed to offer an exceptional level of dexterity. This flexible design also enables enough sensitivity to ensure that you are in total control when handling materials.
How Durable Are the MaxiCut Palm-Coated Gloves?
Handling materials all day requires a certain level of durability, firstly because of the consistent use that the gloves will have to uphold, and secondly because you might have to handle rough and coarse materials that can damage the gloves. The MaxiCut Gloves offer level 4 abrasion resistance, meaning that they will stay in good quality despite handling abrasive materials. This helps to give you peace of mind that you can continue to use the gloves without worry that they will start to break during use.
Can I Wash the MaxiCut Gloves?
MaxiCut Gloves are designed to be washed. You can do so by following the below steps:
- Use commercial laundry soap (do NOT use dry cleaning solutions)

Gloves from ATG can be washed safely in the following way:
1. Use commercial laundry soap or detergent (do NOT use dry cleaning solutions!)
2. Wash in warm to medium hot water, do not exceed 104°F (40°C)
3. Wash for 10 minutes
4. Rinse in cold water.
5. Repeat wash and rinse if soiling is especially heavy
6. Rinse in cold water
7. Tumble dry - maximum temperature 140°F (60°C)
When laundering gloves that have especially heavy dirt or grease, include several pieces of heavy canvas in the second wash cycle - friction from the canvas against the gloves helps loosen and remove deep dirt.
IMPORTANT NOTE
During the use of gloves and the laundering process glove performance can and will deteriorate. For critical areas requiring cut and heat resistance tests need to be conducted after use and laundering to ensure that the performance criteria still meet the needs of those using the glove. Safety Gloves can accept no liability once gloves have been washed.
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.
Where Can I Find Out More?
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.
