Understanding Eureka Glove Model Names
Since the beginning we have refrained from using buzzwords for our model names and instead chose to use a naming structure that makes the general properties of the glove easily identifyable upon first glance. This logic applies to our knitted gloves. Our sewn gloves naming logic is much simpler – indicating just the material and the category/key properties.
The image to the left shows the logic and structure behind our nomenclature.
Glove Knitting Gauge
- 18 gauge – Ultra light
- 15 gauge – Light
- 13 gauge – Medium
- 10 gauge – Heavy
- Double Number (1310) – Double lined model using 13 gauge and 10 gauge
Cut Level Indication
- This number represents a general indication for the cut level of the glove. The logic is derived from an old standard where 1 indicates very low or no cut protection and 5+ indicates very high cut protection
Product Family/Category
- This indicates what glove category or key function the glove has. Cool, SuperCool, Heat, Puncture etc.
Coating Material
- NI – Nitrile
- SC – SupraCoat – PU/Nitrile Composite
- AF/FR – Flame and arc resistant Chloroprene composite
Coating Level
- Standard single coated glove. Models with this coating do not carry the coating level number
- Double-coated – up to fingertips
- Double-coated – up to knuckles
- Double-coated – up to wrist
For Arc Flash models
- The number indicated at the end of the model name after the hyphen (-) e.g. 13-4 Heat AF-17 indicates the calorie rating of the glove
