5.0 g Thick Nitrile Exam Gloves for Demanding Clinical Tasks

Heavier-duty protection with added thickness for demanding work.

Key takeaways

  • 5.0 g blue nitrile exam glove (size M) with a 0.09 mm palm and 0.135 mm fingertip: 0.02 mm thicker at the palm than the 4.0 g glove.
  • Highest breakage force in the blue range, 7 N minimum before and after aging; specification sheet lists EN 455, EN 374 and EN 1186.
  • For long, wet or rough clinical tasks and for tattoo and beauty studios; for chemical or hazardous-drug work compare the 6.0 g black glove.

The 5.0 g thick nitrile exam glove is for work that wears out a standard glove: long clinic sessions, patient hygiene, cleaning with disinfectants and busy beauty or tattoo studios. It keeps the same fit, cuff and blue color as the lighter gloves but adds thickness at every point measured.

Key Features

  • Thickness: cuff 0.075 mm, palm 0.09 mm, finger 0.135 mm
  • Breakage force 7 N minimum before and after aging; elongation 400% minimum after aging
  • Powder-free, latex-free blue nitrile; ambidextrous; beaded cuff; textured fingertips
  • Pinhole AQL 1.5; length 240 mm minimum
  • Specification sheet lists EN 455, EN 374 and EN 1186

Applications

Heavy-duty clinical work such as patient bathing and incontinence care, cleaning and disinfection of patient areas, and long outpatient sessions. Our company catalog also lists tattoo and beauty studios as typical users. If staff handle chemotherapy drugs or strong chemicals, compare the 6.0 g black glove and its test data.

Buyer questions, answered

Clear answers for preparing a comparable sourcing request for Nitrile Exam Gloves 5.0 g.

How do I choose the right nitrile glove thickness?

Match the weight to the task. In this range, 3.5 g and 4.0 g gloves cover routine examinations, while the 5.0 g glove suits longer, wetter or rougher work where thinner gloves tear. Thicker gloves cost more per box and reduce fingertip feel, so many buyers stock two weights.

Nitrile gloves thickness in mm: how does 5 g compare with 4 g?

Per the specification sheets, the 5.0 g glove is 0.075 mm at the cuff, 0.09 mm at the palm and 0.135 mm at the fingertip, against 0.06, 0.07 and 0.11 mm for the 4.0 g glove. Minimum breakage force rises from 6 N to 7 N.

Are nitrile exam gloves food safe?

Some are. The specification sheet for this 5.0 g glove lists EN 1186, the European food-contact migration test, alongside EN 455. Ask for the food-contact test report with your quotation if the gloves will also be used in kitchens.

Is the 5.0 g glove suitable for tattoo and beauty studios?

Yes. Our company catalog lists heavy-duty clinical, tattoo and beauty work as the typical use for 5.0 g. The extra thickness suits long sessions. Studios that prefer black gloves can compare the 6.0 g black glove.
