EN ISO 10819: 2013

Mechanical vibration and shock. Hand-arm vibration. Method for the measurement and evaluation of the vibration transmissibility of gloves at the palm of the hand

Primarily this standard is based on a complex test procedure to assess a glove’s performance in attenuating transmitted vibrations.

Main Testing Procedures

Key tests in this standard involve dimensional assessments including a test to ensure that probes of defined sizes will not penetrate the glove, an impact cut test to assess the strength and cut resistance of the chainmail and a tensile strength test on the rings that make up the chainmail structure.
