MICRO-TOUCH® Nitra-Tex® EP
High-Protection Nitrile Examination Gloves
MICRO-TOUCH® Nitra-Tex® EP are single-use examination gloves made of synthetic nitrile, blue in colour, designed for high-risk use in medical, hospital, laboratory and pharmaceutical environments.
They are non-sterile, powder-free and latex-free, as they do not contain natural rubber latex, helping to reduce the risk of Type I allergic reactions for both users and patients.
Their ambidextrous design ensures ease of use, while the reinforced cuff provides a secure fit and enhanced protection. The chlorinated inner surface allows easy donning, while the fully textured external surface offers improved grip and secure handling of instruments and objects.
With an extended length of 300 mm, the gloves provide additional coverage and protection for the wrist and lower forearm, making them suitable for demanding procedures where a higher level of safety is required.
The typical finger thickness is 0.14 mm, providing high resistance to tearing and reliable protection during use. The force at break is at least 9N, according to EN 455-2, both before and after ageing.
