The 3.5 g nitrile exam glove is our everyday examination weight.

Compared with the 3.0 g glove, it is thicker at the cuff and palm and carries a medical examination specification.

Buyer questions, answered
Clear answers for preparing a comparable sourcing request for Nitrile Exam Gloves 3.5 g.
How thick is a 3.5 g nitrile exam glove?
According to its specification sheet, the 3.5 g glove measures 0.05 mm at the cuff, 0.06 mm at the palm and 0.09 mm at the fingertip. The 3.5 g figure is the weight of a size M glove; an XS weighs about 2.9 g and an XL about 4.1 g.
Nitrile exam gloves vs latex: which is better for clinics?
Nitrile contains no natural rubber latex, which matters where staff or patients have latex allergies, and it generally resists punctures well, which is why many clinics standardize on it. Latex stretches more and some users prefer its fit, but allergy policies often restrict it. This glove is latex-free nitrile.
Is a 3.5 g glove thick enough for dental work?
For routine chairside work, yes: our company catalog lists standard examination and dental work as the typical use for 3.5 g. The thinner fingertip keeps tactile feel for instruments. For long procedures or heavy disinfectant contact, consider the thicker 4.0 g or 5.0 g glove.
How is the 3.5 g glove different from the 4.0 g glove?
The 4.0 g glove is 0.01 mm thicker at the cuff and palm and 0.02 mm thicker at the fingertip. The 3.5 g gives more fingertip feel for exam and dental work; the 4.0 g gives a little more strength for mixed ward and laboratory use. Both list EN 455 on their specification sheets.
