Delta Plus 35cm kevlar-stitched fleece-lined heat-resistant welders glove #CA615K

The reference standard cannot be used alone but only in combination with another standard containing protection performance requirements.
• Conform to harmlessness (pH, chrome VI levels, etc…).
• Conform to the size charts (see chart on below).
• Pass the dexterity test.
• Conform to the labelling, information and identification instructions.



STANDARDIZED LABELING/IDENTIFICATION
Each protective glove is clearly identified by a standardized label containing the following elements:
- Our brand logo.
- The product reference or the trade name.
- The size.
- An information tag indicating that instructions on the product are available.
- The standardization pictogram(s) with their performance ratings.

The EN388 standard applies to all types of protective gloves with respect to physical and mechanical aggression from abrasion, cutting from slicing, perforation and tearing. Since the 2016 version of the standard, new optional performances have appeared.



Impact resistance on the metacarpal area: if this performance is claimed, the "P" mark appears.




Cut by blade, 2 test methods:

EN388 6.2.: For low to middle risks of cutting. A circular blade on which a constant force of 5 N is applied, moves back and forth until the sample is cut. It measures the number of completed cycles and is credited with the corresponding level.

EN ISO 13997: For materials that blunt the blade during the EN388 6.2 test and/ or are particularly resistant, for high risk of cutting. A straight blade makes a single movement of 20 mm with a force of 2N, the test is repeated with a different force as many times as necessary until the sample is cut. A level corresponding to the force required to cut the sample is assigned. This method better represents the usage
situations that present a high risk of cutting.

The EN407 standard specifies the test methods, the general requirements, the thermal performance and the labelling of gloves to protect from heat and fire.
It applies to all gloves which must protect hands from heat and/or flames in any one or several of the following forms: fire, contact heat, convective heat, radiating heat, small spray of molten metal or large spray of melting metal.

Requirements and test methods for gloves used for manual welding of metals, for cutting and related techniques.

Welder gloves are ranked in two types: B when great dexterity is required (e.g.: TIG welding), and A for other welding processes.
