X3 Industrial-Grade Nitrile Powder-Free Gloves have palm thickness of 3 mils and is 9.5" long from the tip of the middle finger to the edge of the beaded wrist cuff. Nitrile provides better elasticity than vinyl, better puncture resistance than latex or vinyl, better abrasion resistance than chloroprene, and it reduces the likelihood of allergic reaction. This glove is suitable for light-duty, non-medical applications. The glove is textured on the fingertips, fingers, and palm for improved grip, particularly in wet environments, compared to gloves with textured fingers. This powder-free glove leaves no residue, reducing the risk of contamination compared to a powdered glove, making it suitable for use in electronic components, forensic, and laboratory applications. This glove complies with Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations for food contact (21CFR, 170–199) and is suitable for use in the food service industry to help prevent the spread of germs and bacteria and to help prevent cross-contamination during food preparation. This ambidextrous glove is blue.
Disposable and limited-use gloves are used in medical, forensic, scientific, food service and industrial applications. Disposable gloves are commonly made from flexible materials such as latex, nitrile, chloroprene and vinyl. While most disposable gloves are designed for use on either hand, some can be purchased in hand-specific models. They are offered powdered or powder-free; silicone or silicone-free; chlorinated or non-chlorinated; coated or uncoated; with a standard- or extended-length cuff; sterile or non-sterile; and with textured or smooth fingers, fingertips and palms. Chemical resistance means the glove helps protect the hand from certain chemicals and varies by glove material. For information on the chemical resistance of this glove, consult the Ammex chemical resistance guide.
Ammex distributes medical and industrial products such as gloves, first aid supplies, face masks and other protective coverings. The company, founded in 1988, is headquartered in Kent, WA.
