Ansell Microflex 93-260 chemical-resistant disposable glove

Ansell has announced the Microflex 93-260, claimed to be the thinnest, chemical-resistant, single-use glove available on the market. The product offers tough protection against a broad range of chemicals while still providing the dexterity and tactility of a thin, disposable glove.

The thin, disposable glove is designed to offer higher levels of protection against chemicals for longer periods of time than ordinary single-use gloves. The glove achieves this through a three-layer design that resists a wide range of aggressive chemicals. The exterior nitrile layer delivers maximum protection against organic solvents, while the soft neoprene middle layer provides acid and base resistance. A final interior layer provides a continual dry feel, while also easing the donning and doffing process. The glove is just 7.8 mm thick, so it offers this protection while also providing enhanced tactility and dexterity for easy handling of small parts and tools.

The glove’s thin design and chemical resistance make it suitable for a broad range of applications, including laboratory work, paint shop work, assembly and fabrication, and general maintenance and repair. It is also a good choice for aircraft engineers and maintenance workers, as it resists common hydraulic fluids used in the aerospace industry.

The glove is available in sizes XS to XXL (5.5-11) and features textured fingers and an extended cuff for added protection. In addition, the glove meets EN374-JKL, ASTM D 3577, EN 420 and EN 388 Abrasion Level 2 performance standards.
