How much cut and needle protection does the Eureka 15-4 give?
Under the EN388 / ISO 13997 (TDM) test, blade cut resistance is graded A to F, with F the highest, so a level-F glove withstands 30 newtons or more of cutting force. Rated at 34.3 N, the Eureka 15-4 suits glass, sheet metal and blades, and resists hypodermic needle puncture at mid level.
Under the current EN388 / ISO 13997 (TDM) test, blade cut resistance is graded A to F, where F is the highest. A level-F glove withstands 30 newtons or more of cutting force, and this one is rated at 34.3 N, making it suitable for handling glass, sheet metal, blades and other high-cut-risk materials.
Needlestick and sharps handling
The 15-4 also offers mid-level resistance to hypodermic needle puncture (ASTM F2878-10), which matters for waste handling, recycling, cleaning and any task where unseen needles or fine sharps are a risk. No glove is fully needle-proof, so it should support, not replace, safe sharps-handling procedures.
Frequently asked questions
How cut resistant is the Eureka 15-4 glove?
The Eureka 15-4 achieves EN388 cut level 5 / F, the top TDM grade, measured at 34.3 newtons under ISO 13997. Level F is the highest blade cut grade, given to gloves that withstand 30 newtons or more of cutting force, so the 15-4 suits glass, sheet metal and blade handling.
Is the Eureka 15-4 glove fully needle-proof?
No glove is fully needle-proof. The Eureka 15-4 offers mid-level resistance to hypodermic needle puncture, rated 6 N with a 25g needle under ASTM F2878-10, which matters for waste handling, recycling and cleaning. Use it alongside safe sharps-handling procedures rather than in place of them.
What is the Eureka 15-4 glove made from?
A seamless knit liner of para-aramid, flame-retardant polyester and fibreglass sits under a breathable nitrile composite foam coating, which holds grip in dry and wet conditions. Flame-retardant construction and biodegradable packaging are listed as well, with sizes XS-2XL under product code E15-4PS.
Which jobs is the Eureka 15-4 glove suited to?
Handling glass, sheet metal, blades and other high-cut-risk materials suits the Eureka 15-4, along with waste handling, recycling and cleaning where unseen needles or fine sharps are a risk. Safe sharps-handling procedures still need to stay in place, because the glove supports them rather than replacing them.
