What does the EN 388 rating with level F mean for this cut-resistant glove?
The EN 388: 2016 + A1: 2018 rating with a score of 3X4XF indicates that this glove offers the highest level of cut protection, designated by the letter F. This means that the glove is resistant to extreme cutting forces from sharp objects.
