Standards CAT 2
Classified under Category 2, referring to gloves for protection against intermediate risks such as cuts, scratches, or punctures.

EN 388 (Mechanical Hazard Protection)
This standard specifies the performance of gloves in protecting against mechanical hazards, indicated by numbers and letters 2X4XE having the following meanings:
2 : Abrasion resistance is at a medium level (Level 2 out of 0-4)
X : Not tested for cut resistance (Cut)
4 : Tear resistance is at the highest level (Level 4 out of 0-4)
X : Not tested for puncture resistance (Puncture)
E : High cut resistance (Cut TDM) (Level E out of A-F)

ISO 13997: 24.2N (Cut resistance) A standard used to measure sharp-edge cut resistance (replacing the traditional EN 388 test method)
24.2N Meaning it requires a force of up to 24.2 Newtons for the blade to cut through the glove, where a higher value indicates better cut protection
