Product Information and Standards
Product Name: TEGERA® 19
Description: Welding and heat-resistant glove, fully lined, split cowhide of top quality, jersey, Category III, yellow. Withstands contact heat up to 100°C, features heat-resistant sewing thread, reinforced seams, and elasticated 180° cuff, designed for heavy work.
Key Standards and Performance Levels:
- EN 420:2003 + A1:2009: Protective gloves - General requirements and test methods.
- EN 388:2016: Protective gloves against mechanical risks. Performance levels are measured from the palm area.
- EN 407:2004: Protective gloves against thermal risks (heat and/or fire).
- EN 12477:2001 + A1:2005: Protective gloves for welders (Type A - lower dexterity with higher other performance).
- EN 1149-2:1997: Protective clothing - Electrostatic properties - Part 2: Test method for measurement of electrical resistance through a material (vertical resistance).
- EN ISO 21420: Indicates the glove contains natural rubber, which may cause allergy.
Performance Level Explanations:
Pictogram Explanation: 0 = Below the minimum performance level for the given individual hazard; X = Not submitted to the test or test method not suitable for the glove design or material.
EN 407:2004 Performance (Thermal Risks):
- A: Burning behaviour (Min. 0; Max. 4)
- B: Contact heat (Min. 0; Max. 4)
- C: Convective heat (Min. 0; Max. 4)
- D: Radiant heat (Min. 0; Max. 4)
- E: Small splashes of molten metal (Min. 0; Max. 4)
- F: Large quantities of molten metal (Min. 0; Max. 4)
Warning: If gloves have a performance level 1, 2 or X in burning behaviour (EN 407:2004), they should not come into contact with naked flame.
EN 388:2016 Performance (Mechanical Risks):
- A: Abrasion resistance (Min. 0; Max. 4)
- B: Blade cut resistance (Min. 0; Max. 5)
- C: Tear resistance (Min. 0; Max. 4)
- D: Puncture resistance (Min. 0; Max. 4)
- E: Cut Resistance TDM (EN ISO13997) (Min. A; Max. F)
- F: Impact Protection (P=Pass)
Warning: For gloves with two or more layers, the overall classification of EN 388:2016 does not necessarily reflect the performance of the outermost layer. The TDM cut resistance test is the reference performance result.
EN 12477:2001+A1:2005 (Welders): Type A - Lower Dexterity (with higher other performance). Warning: No standardized test method for UV penetration, but current construction methods generally prevent UV radiation penetration. Gloves for arc welding do not protect against electric shock from defective equipment or live working. Electrical resistance is reduced if gloves are wet, dirty, or soaked with sweat.
EN 1149-2:1997 (Electrostatic Properties): Test method for measurement of electrical resistance through a material (vertical resistance).
EN 420:2003 + A1:2009 (General Requirements): Finger dexterity test: Min. 1; Max. 5.
Usage, Care, and Safety Information
Fitting and Sizing: All sizes comply with EN 420:2003+A1:2009 for comfort, fit, and dexterity. Use only suitable sizes; products that are too loose or too tight restrict movement and do not provide optimal protection.
Storage and Transport: Ideally stored in dry and dark conditions in the original package, between +10°C and +30°C.
Inspection Before Use: Check for holes, cracks, tears, colour change, etc. Damaged products do not provide optimal protection and must be disposed of. Never use a damaged product. Contact Ejendals for more information.
Shelf Life: The life of this product cannot be determined as it is affected by many factors, such as storage conditions and usage.
Care and Maintenance: The user bears sole responsibility for mechanical washing after use, as unknown substances can contaminate the product and affect performance levels. Rinse in cold water and line dry at room temperature.
Disposal: According to local environmental legislations.
Allergens: The glove contains natural rubber, which may cause allergy. This product may contain components that pose a potential risk for allergic reactions. Do not use if hypersensitivity signs appear. Contact Ejendals for more information.
Latex Free: Yes / No (Information not explicitly stated as 'yes' or 'no' in the provided text, but the allergen section mentions natural rubber which may cause allergy).
