EN388 2016 Cut Resistant Level D Gloves FAQ
1.What is the specific protection load for EN388:2016 Level D?
Level D is determined by the TDM-100 test, requiring the glove to withstand a straight blade cutting load of 15 to 21.9 Newtons. It is classified as “High Cut Protection,” ideal for industrial tasks where light-duty gloves fail.
2.Is EN388:2016 Level D equivalent to the old Level 4 rating?
Generally, yes. In the updated standard, a traditional Level 4 glove typically correlates to a Level D rating. European safety managers now prefer to bulk buy Level D to ensure modern compliance with EU PPE regulations.
3.Can these Level D gloves handle oily or greasy mechanical parts?
Yes, we offer specific Level D models with Nitrile Sandy coatings. These are engineered to repel oils while maintaining an aggressive grip, making them a preferred wholesale choice for mechanical and petrochemical operations across Europe.
4. Can we order these gloves with custom branding for our distribution?
Absolutely. As an experienced manufacturer, Armorppe provides full OEM services. We can customize liner colors and print your company logo on all bulk buy orders to support your corporate identity and safety-coding requirements.
5. Are these gloves skin-friendly and REACH compliant?
Yes, worker health is our priority. All materials in our factory-direct wholesale supply are 100% REACH compliant and free from hazardous solvents, ensuring they are hypoallergenic and comfortable for long-shift wear in industrial environments.
6.What is the typical ROI for switching to Armorppe Level D gloves?
By providing a Level 4 abrasion rating alongside Level D cut defense, our gloves last significantly longer in high-friction environments. This reduces replacement frequency and worker compensation claims, offering a superior ROI for bulk buy customers.
