Verified Standards and Ratings
Ansell lists EN ISO 374-1:2016 Type A with chemical code AJKLOPT, EN ISO 374-5:2016, and EN ISO 21420:2020. Its EN 388:2016+A1:2018 mechanical rating is 3122A. ANSI/ISEA 105-2024 abrasion performance is level 5; this is not an ANSI cut rating.
EN 407:2020 X1XXXX indicates contact heat level 1. It does not establish protection for every heat exposure or authorize work near flames. The other thermal properties are not established by that code. Match required protection to the actual task before use.
Select by Chemical, Concentration and Exposure
Type A is a laboratory classification, not a promise of resistance to all chemicals. Review the chemical safety data sheet together with Ansell's permeation and degradation information for this exact model. Consider concentration, mixtures, temperature, contact duration and whether exposure involves splashes or prolonged contact.
Laboratory breakthrough time is not a guaranteed safe wear time. Establish replacement procedures through the workplace assessment. Compare chemical-resistant gloves when the selected substance or task requires another material or construction.
OSHA Hand Protection Requirements
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.138 requires suitable hand protection based on hazards, performance, tasks, conditions and duration of use. These employer obligations do not constitute OSHA product approval. Coordinate gloves with any additional protective clothing, eye protection or other controls required.
Choose a size that allows a secure grip without excessive material at the fingertips. Check cuff coverage alongside sleeves and other PPE. Reassess glove selection whenever chemicals, concentrations, temperatures or handling procedures change, even when purchasing the same model.
Inspection and Manufacturer Documents
Inspect gloves before use for damage or changes in the coating. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning, storage and replacement. Remove contaminated gloves without transferring residue to bare skin. Grip performance should be checked with the actual objects and conditions encountered.
The official manufacturer product page also provides instructions, conformity declarations and chemical-permeation resources.
FAQ: AlphaTec 58-530B Gloves
Do these resist every solvent?
No. Confirm compatibility with the exact chemical and exposure.
Does abrasion level 5 mean cut level A5?
No. Abrasion and cut resistance are different measurements.
Is the liner acrylic or nylon?
The 58-530B has a black acrylic liner.
Can these be used for food handling?
Review Ansell's food-contact declaration for the intended food, conditions and applicable restrictions.
