Frequently asked questions

What does the E15 cut rating mean?

The AP42 is rated Cut Level E to EN 388:2016+A1:2018, shown as the last digit in the 3X42E rating on the label. Level E is a high cut-resistance rating, suitable for handling sharp materials such as metal sheet and glass.

How much heat can the glove handle?

The AP42 is rated for contact heat protection up to 250C for 15 seconds, so brief contact with a warm or hot surface is covered. It is not designed for sustained high-heat work such as welding.

Is the AP42 waterproof?

No. The silicone palm coating improves grip in wet conditions but the glove is not rated waterproof to EN 343. For wet-weather work, a dedicated waterproof glove is a better fit.

What sizes are available?

The AP42 is available from XS to XXL, sold as a pair.

What is the liner made from?

The liner is a 15-gauge knit built in one piece from an aramid-based yarn, which gives the cut and heat resistance while keeping the glove thin enough for detailed work.

How long is the lead time?

The AP42 is UK stock and typically dispatches within 1-2 working days.

Can the AP42 be branded or embroidered?

No, embroidery and logo printing are not currently offered for this glove.
