EN12477:2001 (Protection for welder gloves) This standard applies to gloves that provide hand and wrist protection in welding and similar work situations. Welding gloves are tested according to EN388:2016 (Mechanical Risks Protection) and EN407 (Thermal Risks Protection) The Gloves are also assessed according to its design and purpose: Type A refers to gloves with high protection against heat but with lower flexibility and dexterity. Type B refers to gloves with lower protection against heat but with greater flexibility and dexterity. Permeability to water (Performance level 0 or 1) Resistance to contact cold (Performance level 0-4) The higher performance level the better insulating capacity Resistance to convective cold (Performance level 0-4) 0 = Water penetration after 30minutes 1 = No water penetration after 30 minutes EN511 (Cold Protection for Gloves) This standard applies to any gloves to protect the hands against convective and contact cold down to -50 degrees Celsius The pictogram will be accompanied by a 3-digit code. X 2 X EN511 EN 1149 Protective Clothing - Electrostatic Properties A European standard that defines the electrostatic properties required for protective clothing used in environments where static discharge could ignite flammable atmospheres or damage sensitive equipment. IEC 61482-2 Live working - Protective clothing against the thermal hazards of an electric arc An international standard that defines the requirements and test methods for protective clothing designed to safeguard workers against the thermal hazards of an electric arc. It ensures that garments can withstand the intense heat, flames, and molten metal generated during arc‑flash events, helping prevent serious burns and injuries for those working near energized electrical equipment. EN ISO 11612 Protective clothing – Clothing to protect against heat and flame A widely used international standard that specifies the minimum performance requirements for protective clothing designed to shield workers from heat and flame hazards. It applies to garments offering limited flame spread and protection against radiant, convective, and contact heat as well as molten metal splashes, making it suitable for a broad range of industrial environments. EN407 (Protective gloves against thermal risks) This standard applies to any gloves that protect against thermal risks like heat and/or fire. Gloves with EN 407 are rated for the following: EN407 EN388:2016 (Mechanical Risks Protection for gloves) EN388 standard covers main areas of concern for mechanical hazards, and these areas are graded by a number, as per the table below: 1 is the lowest rating, and highest rating as below. 4 3 4 4 D Cut (TDM-100) A~F Puncture 1~4 Tear 1~4 Cut (Coup Test) 1~5 Abrasion 1~4 Test Rating EN388 EN 407:2020 Icon Indicates glove has been tested to limited flame spread (LFS) Icon indicates glove has not been tested to LFS, I.e. glove has protection against heat without flame 1. Burning behaviour 2. Contact heat 3. Convective heat 4. Radiant heat 5. Small splashes of molten metal 6. Large quantities of molten metal X X X X X X X X X X X X 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 565
