Gloves
Different types of work require different types of safety gloves and when workers fail to match the correct glove with the type of work they are doing, they risk accidents and potential injury. Caulfield Industrial Tools carries one of the widest ranges of safety gloves in Ireland for almost any application and budget. Our glove range includes leading brands such as Ansell Edmont, Best, Ergodyne, Marigold, North Safety, Showa and our own in-house Range of CITEC Pro gloves.
EN420: 2003 outlines the major European standard requirements for protective gloves; including requirements for dexterity, construction and overall performance level. All our gloves comply with CE requirements. There are a number of other EN requirements for more specialised glove applications including:
• EN 388 – Mechanical protection for protective gloves; includes parameters such as glove abrasion resistance, blade cut resistance as well as tear and puncture resistance.
• EN 374 – Chemical and micro-organism protection for safety gloves; covers issues such as chemical breakthrough times on gloves.
• EN 421 – Radioactive contamination for protective gloves.
• EN 407 – This standard relates to heat protection for protective gloves, covering issues such as glove burning behaviour and heat resistance.
• EN 51 – Cold protection for gloves.
