Why it works

Why choose the CT21

EN 388 Cut Level C

Certified to EN 388:2016+A1:2018 (3X41C), with A3 cut resistance also shown on the glove label.

Dexterity level 5

The 21-gauge knitted liner gives the highest EN ISO 21420 dexterity rating, for fine, precise work.

Touchscreen compatible

Works with most mobile touchscreen devices, so scanners and tablets can be used without removing the glove.

Retains cut protection after washing

Cut performance holds for up to 10 washes, so the glove keeps its rating through regular use.

Silicone-free construction

No silicone content, making it suited to paint application, electronics assembly and glass handling where contamination is a risk.

Frequently asked questions

What does Cut Level C mean, and how does that compare to the A3 rating on the glove?

Cut Level C is the EN 388 rating (tested to EN 388:2016+A1:2018, result 3X41C). The glove also carries an A3 rating under the ANSI/ISEA scale - these are two different test methods reporting a broadly similar mid-range cut resistance, not conflicting figures.

Why does it matter that this glove is silicone-free?

Silicone residue can cause fisheye defects in paint finishes and interfere with some electronics and glass-handling processes. This glove is made without silicone, so it is safe to use around those materials.

Does the cut protection wear off with washing?

No - Portwest rate the CT21 to retain its cut performance for up to 10 washes, so regular laundering does not compromise the protection level within that range.

Can I use a touchscreen device while wearing these gloves?

Yes, the CT21 works with most mobile touchscreen devices, so scanners, phones and tablets can be used without taking the glove off.

What sizes are available?

The CT21 comes in six sizes, XS through to XXL, all in the same Grey/Black colourway.

Is this glove suitable for hot or thermal work?

No - the CT21 is not thermal rated and carries no waterproof rating, so it is intended for dry, ambient-temperature handling work rather than hot or wet conditions.

What is the liner made from?

A 21-gauge knitted liner, free from glass and steel fibres, with a nitrile palm coating for grip.
