HexArmor Product Catalog

The Only Proven Needlestick Solution The methods by which needlestick-resistant products are tested in a laboratory often fall short of the actual dangers involved with handling used needles on the job. The few standards that are available for puncture testing, such as the EN 388 and the ASTM 1342, do not accurately replicate the fine points of 25-gauge medical needles, nor do they account for odd angles of entry. In order to validate HexArmor gloves as the most needlestick-resistant PPE available, HexArmor uses the ASTM F2878 test which uses 21, 25, and 28 gauge needles. Learn more about this test on pages 68 and 69.
