ANSI/ISEA has released a new edition of the ANSI/ISEA 105 standard (2024 ed). The changes include a new standardized glove label for easier identification of key protection levels for both distributors and end-users. The new pentagon marking was created to simplify and standardize the identification of protective glove performance levels, including abrasion, cut, and puncture resistance. By consolidating this information into a single, easily recognizable label, it improves usability for workers and reduces the risk of selecting inadequate protection. Learn more.
Abrasion Level: 3 Test Method: ASTM D3884-09
The ANSI/ISEA 105-2024 standard outlines test methods for abrasion and is scored from 0-6. The ASTM D3884-09 is used for uncoated gloves and the end point (failure) is the number of abrasion cycles when the first thread or yarn is broken. The larger numbers of cycles indicates greater abrasion resistance of the product and a higher Abrasion Level.
EN 388 is a European Standard. Cut Level is determined by the number of cycles it takes a spinning circular blade, that is pulled across the material under a constant weight of 500 grams, to cut the fabric. As the number of cycles increase, so does the glove's ratings. Click here for more information about the EN 388 2016 standard.
