These nitrile gloves are the perfect compromise between latex and vinyl. Latex-free, silicone-free phthalate-free nitrile is made from an allergy-safe compound that feels a lot like latex, but it's much stronger and more comfortable to wear. Nitrile is perfect for demanding applications whether in the medical or foodservice environment. Gloves comply with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act that allows repeated use in direct contact with food. Powdered design means the gloves are produced with a food-grade corn starch powder, making it easier to take them on or off - especially with wet hands. The 9.65" long gloves feature a 2.9 mil cuff thickness, 3.7 mil palm thickness and 4.1 mil finger thickness for more durable use.
