Tear strength is a critical factor in determining the quality of personal protective equipment, especially safety gloves. BS EN 388 is a standard used to measure the physical durability and safety of gloves. Testing the tear strength of gloves helps prevent occupational accidents and proves the reliability of products. This test is vital in many fields such as industrial safety, automotive, construction and healthcare.
What is BS EN 388 Tear Strength Test?
BS EN 388 is a test standard that assesses the tear strength of work gloves. During the test, the glove fabric is pulled at a certain speed and force, thus measuring the tear points and the level of durability. This test determines how resistant the gloves are to the harshest conditions and provides users with a high level of safety.
Test Implementation Process
- Gloves are pulled at a constant speed
- The tearing force of the fabric is measured
- Tear point and durability are recorded
