Gants de travail anticoupure : comment choisir le niveau de protection adapté
Tous les gants de travail n'offrent pas le même niveau de protection contre les coupures, et en choisir un avec moins de résistance que nécessaire peut constituer un risque réel pour des tâches impliquant de la tôle, du verre, des lames ou des pièces métalliques. Nous vous expliquons comment sont classés les gants anticoupure et comment choisir celui adapté à votre activité.
Comment se mesure la résistance à la coupure d'un gant
Les gants de travail anticoupure sont classés selon la norme EN 388, qui attribue un niveau de résistance à la coupure (par exemple C, D, E ou F selon la version de la norme) en fonction de la force nécessaire pour traverser le matériau. Plus le niveau est élevé, plus la protection est grande, même si cela implique généralement un léger compromis sur la dextérité et la sensibilité au toucher.
Quel niveau de protection vous faut-il selon votre activité
-
Manutention générale, entrepôt, montage léger : des niveaux de coupure plus bas (type C-D) suffisent généralement, en privilégiant la dextérité et le confort.
-
Manipulation de tôle métallique, cristal ou verre : un gant avec un niveau de coupure élevé (type D-F) est recommandé, comme les gants en nitrile avec fil d'acier ou fibre technique.
-
Travaux au froid ou en extérieur : il existe des versions anticoupure avec doublure thermique pour ne pas renoncer à la protection contre le froid.
-
Tâches de précision avec risque de coupure : les gants enduits de nitrile sur la paume combinent une bonne prise en main avec une résistance à la coupure, sans trop perdre en sensibilité.
Matériaux courants dans les gants anticoupure
La plupart des gants anticoupure professionnels combinent une fibre technique résistante à la coupure (souvent avec fil d'acier ou polyéthylène haute performance) avec un enduit de nitrile, de polyuréthane ou de mousse de nitrile sur la paume, qui apporte de la prise en main sans perdre en flexibilité.
