Maximum Hand and Arm Coverage For High-Risk Hand Situations : Single-Use PURPLE NITRILE® MAX GLOVES

These gloves are usually 9-inches in length and feature reduced mil-thickness that allow for tactile touch. Typical disposable gloves are more appropriate for applications such as patient exams or food processing but are not suggested hand protection for extreme or hi-risk circumstances.
