Cut Resistance Testing

Cut resistance testing measures how well a material or protective glove can withstand a cutting force, helping to prevent injuries. During the test, a blade or blade-like instrument is pushed against the material with increasing pressure until it cuts through. The test results indicate the material’s resistance level, often classified on a numerical scale. This testing is essential for ensuring safety in workplaces where employees handle sharp tools or objects, providing confidence that protective gear will perform effectively in real-world conditions.
