Protection gloves of this standard need to protect against physical and mechanical loads such as wear, cuts, puncturing, tearing or felling cuts. These loads can occur when working with metal or wood or any other tasks where hands need to be protected against mechanical injury. Also, they must comply with the regulations relating to electrical conductivity of protection gloves.
Protection gloves for mechanical risks must satisfy at least one of the test criteria listed in the table.
Testing Criteria:
Abrasion Resistance: 0-4
Cut Resistance: 0-5
Tear Resistance: 0-4
Puncture Resistance: 0-4
EN-ISO cut resistance: A-F
EN impact protection: yes/no
The higher the number (shown with an X below the icon in the example), the better the test result.
- Wear-resistant
- Sturdy and tear-proof
- Good mechanical protection
- For heavy-duty work
These products are work gloves with a perfect fit, superior grip and numerous important protective details.

Grain leather, also called full leather, is the upper most valuable layer of the leather. It is the former fur side of the skin and can be recognised by its natural smooth surface that makes it resistant to oils, grease and wet. It is also very strong and supple. This means that the sturdy, very wear-resistant grain leather is ideal wherever dexterity is required. Gloves made of upholstery leather are also produced from grain leather.

Thinsulate™
A very high-quality padding based on natural insulation materials such as feathers and fur. The hollow fibres are 40 times finer than human hair, and thanks to their tubular shape, they trap a greater amount of air whilst being lower in weight.
The convincing result:
- Optimum insulation
- Super thin fleece
- Breathability
- Good wearing comfort
Protection against the cold
When selecting protection gloves for work in the cold, the tasks and also the environmental conditions (humidity, ambient temperature) must be taken into account, because if the gloves become wet, they may lose their insulating properties. Likewise, the protection gloves should remain flexible in these conditions and not lead to hand fatigue, even in extreme temperatures.
Winter work gloves against the cold should offer protection against both convective cold and direct contact, i.e. with cold objects. In both cases, 4 is the highest performance level.
Checking that the gloves are waterproof is voluntary. There are two values for this: 0 and 1. If after 30 minutes no water has penetrated, the gloves are marked with the value 1.
engelbert strauss offers both waterproof and also winter work gloves for optimum protection against the cold.
Testing Criteria:
Convective Cold Resistance: 0-4
Contact Cold Resistance: 0-4
Water Permeability: 0-1
