Cut 5 gloves are engineered to deliver a high level of cut resistance making them the go-to solution for workers exposed to sharp blades, metal, glass and other severe cut hazards. Whether you're on the factory floor or in the field, cut 5 gloves protect your hands when it matters most. Available in multiple sizes, coatings and grip levels when safety is non-negotiable, trust cut 5 gloves for unbeatable protection and performance.
If you're looking for cut 5 gloves, it's important to know they are now classified under the EN388:2016 standard as cut level C to F, based on the updated TDM ISO 13997 test method. These gloves offer high-level protection against sharp blades, metal edges, glass, and heavy-duty machinery, making them essential for demanding industrial environments.
Understanding the Change: EN388:2003 vs EN388:2016
Old Standard (EN388:2003): Used a circular blade coup test to rate cut resistance from levels 1–5.
New Standard (EN388:2016): Uses the more accurate TDM straight blade test, resulting in a letter rating from A to F.
Cut Level 5 now corresponds to cut level C and above.
This upgrade offers a more accurate reflection of how gloves perform against real-world cut hazards. Don’t get left behind with outdated glove ratings. Our Cut Level C to F work gloves, formerly known as Cut 5, offer certified protection under today’s strict standards giving you confidence and compliance.
