Disposable nitrile gloves offer superior performance in a variety of work applications and across a broad range of industries. Nitrile disposable gloves are a popular alternative to latex gloves in many professions.
There are lots of reasons why disposable nitrile gloves are the best choice for tough jobs. What are the benefits of disposable nitrile gloves?
Nitrile gloves are highly puncture resistant, more so than latex or vinyl.
Many professions rely on the durability of nitrile gloves, especially when exposure to bloodborne pathogens and other environmental contaminants are of concern. Nitrile gloves, such as AMMEX Professional Exam Indigo Nitrile, are FDA approved for medical use and are highly puncture resistant. These gloves are powder free, so you don’t have to worry about messy powder when working with fresh adhesives or ink. AMMEX Professional Exam Indigo Nitrile Gloves are commonly used by medical and dental professionals, tattoo artists, spas and salons, and in laboratory settings. These gloves are also FDA approved for foodservice. AMMEX nitrile exam gloves are perfect for doctors, nurses, emergency medical technicians, tattoo artists, dentists, veterinary offices, and laboratory workers.
They provide a strong barrier of protection and offer excellent chemical resistance.
Nitrile butadiene rubber is more resistant than natural latex rubber to chemicals, oils and acids, and has superior strength. Nitrile disposable gloves such as Gloveworks Industrial Orange Nitrile Raised Diamond Texture gloves, are more resistant to punctures and chemicals than latex or vinyl. In fact, nitrile is recommended for employees working with 67 percent of chemicals, 28 percent more than latex or vinyl. Gloveworks Orange Nitrile gloves are one of AMMEX’s premium glove products—ideal for many industries, such as automotive, manufacturing, janitorial, plumbing, paint shops, and industrial applications.
Most important, don’t forget about Raised Diamond Texture! Those diamonds channel away liquids so you can always hold on tight to tools and machinery. When it comes to utility and versatility, as well as the best grip in the business, it is hard to beat Gloveworks Orange Nitrile Gloves!
Nitrile gloves are latex free, so anyone with a latex allergy can work safely and comfortably.
Nitrile gloves have become the preferred synthetic alternative to natural rubber and are ideal when latex allergies are of concern. More medical professionals rely on the latex-free dependability of nitrile gloves. Exam-grade disposable gloves, such as AMMEX Professional Exam Black Nitrile Gloves, are FDA approved for medical use and provide excellent strength, durability, and barrier protection against bloodborne pathogens and environmental contaminants. The textured finish on the surface of the glove gives you a non-slip grip. These nitrile gloves are perfect for medical and dental professionals, child care, and senior care.
Nitrile conforms to the shape of your hand, providing a snug and comfortable fit.
As body heat warms nitrile gloves, they conform closely to the hand for a better, comfortable fit. Nitrile gloves such as Gloveworks Industrial Black Nitrile, a premium industrial-grade nitrile glove, are 50% thicker than standard nitrile gloves for added durability so that each pair of gloves lasts longer while you’re working. They are more elastic than vinyl and can be used in a variety of applications, including automotive, manufacturing, janitorial and sanitation, chemical and safety use, various industrial needs, and are FDA approved for foodservice.
A lower resistance to friction makes nitrile gloves easier to pull on and remove.
Nitrile gloves alone have a lower coefficient of friction, making them easier to put on and remove. However, during the disposable glove manufacturing process, finishes are applied, allowing glove users to wear and remove with ease, creating a seamless experience as they change gloves. When the finish is applied to nitrile gloves it provides the following features and benefits:
- Powder makes gloves easier to pull on by absorbing excess moisture on the hands, but most powdered gloves are no longer available because of concerns about contamination of wounds or damage to paint or varnish jobs.
- Polymer coating, with a slicker finish, makes the gloves easier to slip onto the hands.
Chlorination reduces the tackiness of the material and makes it softer.
Industries such as food processing and food service, frequently change gloves. General purpose gloves such as, X3 Industrial Blue Nitrile Gloves, offers seamless glove changes, which is perfect for short-duration applications where frequent glove changes are required. This nitrile glove is a 3-mil, industrial-grade, blue disposable glove commonly used in industries where dexterity is needed, such as for food processing, janitorial & sanitation, automotive detailing, and light-duty industrial applications. X3 gloves are also FDA approved for foodservice. Talk to a glove expert to find the best nitrile gloves for your industry or application.
