NITRILE RUBBER GLOVES

Nitrile rubber gloves are made of synthetic rubber and used to protect your hands and products. They are mainly used at worksites where auto parts are handled and food processing plants. These gloves are available in various types with different thicknesses, lengths and sizes around the fingers and palms. They are made of rubber with excellent heat resistance, durability and abrasion resistance, and particularly boast outstanding oil and chemical resistance. With regard to chemical resistance, however, care is needed as the nature of resistance may vary with the type of chemical. Nitrile rubber gloves fit snugly, making you feel as if you were working with bare hands. They are also used as a measure against natural rubber allergy. Should these gloves be torn, the tear will spread widely so that you will notice immediately.

NATURAL RUBBER GLOVES

Natural rubber gloves are made of natural rubber and used mainly to keep your hands clean and prevent chapped hands. They are flexible and fit comfortably in your hands, making it easy to do your work. They provide excellent cut resistance and durability. However, they are vulnerable to oil and solvents and are not suited to the kind of work that involves exposure to them. Natural rubber gloves come in various types, including ultra-thin disposable types that provide great elasticity and a snug fit, thick types with palm dots for a better grip and an ultra-long type that combines arm covers. You can also focus on functionality when choosing natural rubber gloves, as there are products designed to make it easier to wear and take off, products with jersey wrists to keep out contaminants and products with flanges to enable fixing to a cabinet.
