MaxiCut 44-505 Protection Ratings and Safety Standards
EN 388: Mechanical Resistance
EN 388 is a European regulation governing the sale of gloves used for safety and protection. It determines the gloves' performance when used for protection against mechanical machinery by measuring the fabric's abrasion, cut, tear and puncture resistance.
The EN 388 cut resistance test uses a single sharp implement to repeatedly pressure a glove in order to determine the amount of force required to cause visible and functional damage.
Standard | Resistance Rating |
Abrasion Resistance | Level 4 |
Cut Resistance | Level 4 |
Tear Resistance | Level 4 |
Puncture Resistance | Level 2 |
ISO Cut Resistance | Level C |
Maximum Abrasion Resistance
Abrasion resistance is often under-looked in terms of EN 388. MaxiCut Cut-Resistant 44-505 Safety Gloves have been awarded the highest possible Level 4 rating. This indicates they can withstand a tonne of traffic, constant contact and wear before showing any sign of breakage, tearing and splits.

Discover the MaxiCut Range
ATG's MaxiCut range features a selection of mechanically resistant safety gloves. Please view the video below to see what the technology used in this range can do to protect your hands at work:
Oil-Resistant Outer Coating
Oil and grease regularly conspire to compromise your grip strength and stability. Even if you can't see them, particles often linger on the glove face, causing material to slowly slide down your hand. MaxiCut 44505 Safety Gloves use a premium-quality nitrile coating to absorb harmful particles and prevent this from happening.
What Are the Benefits of a Nitrile Coating?
Nitrile is an incredibly flexible coating that provides additional resistance to oil, fuel and chemicals. Nitrile is used as a protective coating in gloves because it matches the pliability of latex with the hazard and injury protection properties of a heavier, woven glove.
What Are the Benefits of a 3/4 Coating?
For many professionals, a 3/4 coating is their go to. It allows the back of the glove to breathe naturally, releasing odour and perspiration without compromising your safety. The palm and fingers remain coated, allowing you to carry, lift and transfer material without interference.
Rough and Tough Reinforced Thumb Crotch
Fed up your gloves tearing at the thumb? This recurring issue is a problem for tradesmen everywhere. ATG recognise this and manufacture their MaxiCut Gloves with a reinforced thumb crotch.
This means when you make a fist, lift heavy material or flex your fingers, the vulnerable ridge area between the thumb and index finger flexes with you, guarding against rips and splitting.
