Our examination gloves range covers powder-free, latex-free nitrile gloves graded by weight, from a 3.5 g everyday exam glove to a 6.0 g heavy-duty black glove, plus a 3.0 g light-duty nitrile glove for non-clinical tasks.

Examination gloves vs other disposable gloves

An examination glove is a non-sterile medical glove tested for barrier integrity and strength, for example to EN 455 in Europe or ASTM D6319 for nitrile in the US. Gloves sold for food or cleaning use are not always tested this way. The specification sheets for our 3.5 g to 6.0 g gloves list EN 455; the 3.0 g sheet lists food-contact references only, so it is offered for non-clinical use.

Products in this range

  • 3.0 g nitrile gloves: light-duty, short tasks outside patient care
  • 3.5 g nitrile exam gloves: everyday examination and dental work
  • 4.0 g nitrile examination gloves: the all-round ward and lab glove
  • 5.0 g thick nitrile exam gloves: longer, wetter or rougher tasks
  • 6.0 g heavy-duty nitrile exam gloves, black: the heaviest barrier in the range

US distributors buying nitrile or vinyl gloves for the US market can order through hopemedusa.com.
