Highest-Possible Level F Cut Resistance
Level F cut resistance is the highest available, which makes these Nitrex Cut Gloves a fantastic choice for jobs involving really sharp objects like metalworking or working with sharp knives. Along with cut protection, they also feature high levels of abrasion and tear resistance, plus some additional puncture resistance ensuring well-rounded mechanical protection.
Fantastic Grip in Dry, Wet and Oily Conditions
The flexible and durable nitrile coating on these Nitrex Cut-Proof Safety Gloves features a 'sandy' texture, ensuring a fantastic grip in dry, wet and oily conditions. This combined with their high cut resistance makes them excellent for handling sharp and oily metal parts ins manufacturing and engineering.
Reinforced Thumb Crotch for Extra Protection
Adding to the already high level of cut and abrasion protection, the index finger and thumb of the Nitrex 241NFX Gloves are reinforced. This thumb crotch area is at increased risk when handling sharp objects compared to other parts of the hands, but this reinforcement gives it some essential extra protection. It also reduces wear on the gloves, extending their use life.

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.
