In the UK, cut level C for safety gloves refers to a specific level of protection against cuts from sharp straight blades. It falls under the EN 388:2016 European standard, which outlines how cut resistance is measured for gloves.
Here's a breakdown of cut level C:
- Protection level: Medium protection
- Force: Up to 10 newtons of force (similar to the traditional cut level 5)
- Applications: Ideal for handling materials that pose a moderate cut risk, such as:
- Glass handling
- Sheet metal
- Construction
- Automotive industries
Key points to remember:
- Cut level C offers better protection than the older classification of level 5.
- While it provides good protection against cuts, it's not suitable for very sharp objects or blades that could exert a higher force.
- Different materials can be used to create cut level C gloves, with Kevlar and HPPE (High-Performance Polyethylene) being common options.
For specific recommendations on cut level C gloves or if you need a higher level of protection, consulting a safety equipment supplier or your employer's safety guidelines is recommended.
