In plain words. A cut level tells you how much force it took a blade to cut through the glove material in the standard's test. A3 means it took 1,000 to 1,499 grams (2.2 to 3.3 lb). A1 is the lowest level (200 grams, 0.4 lb) and A9 the highest (6,000 grams and above, 13.2 lb and above). The number comes from the manufacturer's published test result, not from us.
Ratings on this page are shown as published by the manufacturer or the named standard and describe performance in that standard's test. They are not a recommendation for any task. The employer's hazard assessment decides what protective equipment a job needs. Verify details against the manufacturer's current documentation before you buy.
Standards-body and manufacturer charts
These charts are published by the standards body and by the manufacturers, copied as printed and shown with attribution; nothing in them is Bayshore's recommendation. Level 5 puncture is printed as ≥ 100 N in both documents below.

Cut resistance
| Level | ISEA hazard label | Grams-force | Protects against | Applications by cut level |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A1 | Light cut hazards | 200 gf | Protect against scrapes | Material handling, small parts assembly (sharp edges), packaging, warehouse, general purpose, forestry, construction, pulp and paper, automotive assembly |
| A2 | Light/Medium cut hazards | 500 gf | ||
| A3 | Light/Medium cut hazards | 1000 gf | ||
| A4 | Medium cut hazards | 1500 gf | Protect against cuts for which stitches would be required | Appliance manufacturing, bottle and light glass handling, canning, drywall work, electrical, carpet installation, HVAC, pulp and paper, automotive assembly, metal fabrication and handling, packaging, warehouse, aerospace industry, food/prep processing |
| A5 | Medium/Heavy cut hazards | 2200 gf | ||
| A6 | High cut hazards | 3000 gf | Metal stamping, metal recycling, pulp and paper (changing slitter blades), automotive assembly, metal fabrication, sharp metal stampings, glass manufacturing, window manufacturing, recycling plant/sorting, HVAC, food prep/processing, meat processing, aerospace industry | |
| A7 | High cut hazards | 4000 gf | Protection against brutal or extreme injuries | |
| A8 | High cut hazards | 5000 gf | ||
| A9 | High cut hazards | 6000 gf |
gf = grams-force, as the key prints it.
