What Can The TG3240 LXT Gloves Protect my Hands Against?

They are designed to be versatile, protecting your hands against abrasion, tears, heat, water and oil.

To ensure a high level of performance, these gloves have been tested to EN standards EN 388 and EN 407, and achieved the following scores.

EN 388

EN 407

What Does this Mean?

We understand that EN Standards can be a little confusing if you don't really know what you're looking at, but don't worry it doesn't take too long to get your head around it. For EN 388, level 4 is the highest available for all types of resistance except for cuts. This means that from these gloves you receive the very best in abrasion and tear resistance, and a little less for puncture.

Cut is slightly different is the standards were recently updated and the gloves will now score between level A and Level F, which means these gloves provide a medium to low level of cut-resistance. EN 407 is simpler, with their level 1 in contact heat resistance meaning that you should be able to handle items that are as hot as 100°C for around 30 seconds. If you'd like more information regarding the change in cut-resistance, don't hesitate to check out our blog on the matter.

What is LXT and Why Does it Matter?

The TraffiGlove TG3240 Gloves use something called LXT, a brand new glove treatment from TraffiGlove that stands for Life Extending Technology. The primary goal of LXT is to enhance durability and extended the life of the gloves. The gloves are treated during manufacturing by bonding glove fibres with this new formula that can act as a shield, protecting the gloves from water, oil and dirt.

A special coating prevents contaminants from reaching the material of the gloves

This also works to protect the gloves from damage while increasing comfort, as fibres on the gloves will be less likely to fracture through and feel rough against the skin. This is ideal for those who suffer from sensitive skin. If you want to find out more about LXT, you can do so on our website or by viewing the video below.

How Comfortable are the TraffiGlove TG3240 LXT Gloves?

The LXT TG3240 use a nylon and HPPE liner that is designed to be extremely flexible, ideal for stretching naturally with your hands. This level of flexibility offers a high level of comfort, as the chances of you receiving hand fatigue at the end of a day are reduced. This level of comfort is particularly useful for higher risk industries, where you don't want to be worrying about comfort while at work.

How Grippy are the TraffiGlove LXT Gloves?

A MicroDex coating on the palms ensures an outstanding level of grip, even when working in wet, dry and oily working conditions. This coating when wet becomes extremely coarse, which helps slippery items stick to the gloves. This level of grip can make you more productive, safe in the knowledge that you aren't going to drop the items that you are holding.

How Flexible are the TG3240 Cut Level B gloves?

If you're working with oil, water and grease then flexibility is key for retaining control of the materials that you are holding. With the TG3240 Gloves you are provided with just this, with their nylon and HPPE liner designed to stretch over the hand and continue to move while in use. They are so flexible that your level of grip and control over items and materials is increased, making them particularly well suited to handling tools and equipment.

Will The TG3240 Gloves Protect my Wrist?

The TraffiGlove TG3240 Gloves are designed with a knitwrist that extends up the wrist to ensure protection from the fingertips to the wrist. This knitwrist is also quite tight fitting and snug around the hands, meaning contaminants such as dirt and water won't enter the gloves. This knitwrist is also highly flexible, making it ideal for easy and fast donning at work.
