Many of you who use Cut Resistant gloves will begin to\nsee the new markings relating to the new standards on the gloves they use. They\ncan be a bit confusing at first but they are simply more precise as to the\nmechanical risk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make them easier to understand, we have loaded a\nprintable PDF file on our web site that you can print out. This file is\ncompliments of the technical people at the PIP Glove Company. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regarding the cut resistance, most gloves in the old 3, 4, and 5 ranges remain almost the same but with a new A3, A4, and A5 symbols. I mention these ranges since most of the popular cut resistant gloves fall in these ranges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
