2. Advantages of Ansell MICROFLEX® 93-260 Chemical-Resistant Gloves
Traditional disposable gloves are designed for short-term chemical protection and often degrade quickly under harsh conditions. In contrast, reusable chemical-resistant gloves are thicker and more durable for extended protection.
Ansell has engineered the MICROFLEX 93-260 to be a disposable chemical-resistant glove that is thin, yet provides high-level protection over a longer duration compared to standard disposable gloves.
At only 7.8 mils thick, the Ansell MICROFLEX® 93-260 gloves are lightweight and thin but offer outstanding chemical protection. They also enhance flexibility and dexterity, making it easier for users to handle small components and tools.
To achieve this performance, the MICROFLEX 93-260 features an innovative three-layer construction:
-
Outer layer: 100% nitrile for long-lasting performance and excellent resistance to organic solvents.
-
Middle layer: Soft neoprene for flexibility and resistance to acids and bases.
-
Inner layer: Provides a dry feel and reduces friction during donning and doffing.
The MICROFLEX 93-260 gloves meet EN374 certification in Europe and KOSHA certification in South Korea. They have been tested against strong chemicals like sulfuric acid, n-heptane, hexane, and methanol, delivering impressive permeation times.
These gloves are silicone-free, preventing surface reactions or allergic responses when handling painted or coated objects. Additionally, they feature extended cuffs for added wrist and forearm protection.
