Description
Disposable nitrile gloves with an extra-long cuff for enhanced protection when working with chemicals, cytostatic drugs, and biological hazards. The fully textured surface ensures a secure grip and high comfort during demanding applications.
The GentleSafe® EXTRA REF 879 was developed for demanding applications that require reliable protection against chemicals, cytostatic drugs, and biological hazards, combined with a high level of comfort. This extra-long nitrile glove offers enhanced protection for the hand and wrist and supports safe working practices even in sensitive areas.
These powder-free and latex-free disposable gloves are made of carboxylated nitrile-butadiene rubber and are classified as both Category III PPE and a Class I medical device. The extra-long design provides additional protection against chemicals and liquids in the wrist and forearm area. The fully textured surface ensures excellent grip, even when handling wet or damp objects. Thanks to its high elasticity, the glove allows for maximum dexterity (Level 5 according to EN ISO 21420) while offering high wearing comfort and reducing hand fatigue. The liquid-impermeable glove meets the requirements of EN ISO 374-1 Type C and provides protection against chemicals, viruses, bacteria, and fungi in accordance with EN ISO 374-5. Against 40% sodium hydroxide, it achieves protection level 6 with a degradation rate of -3.9%. Suitability for handling cytostatic drugs was tested according to ASTM D6978-05; breakthrough times of over 240 minutes were achieved for several active ingredients such as cisplatin, cyclophosphamide, dacarbazine, doxorubicin HCl, etoposide, fluorouracil, and paclitaxel. With a length of 304 mm, a finger thickness of 0.14 mm, and a tear strength of 9.25 N, the GentleSafe® EXTRA combines high protection with excellent tactile sensitivity. Additionally, the glove is suitable for food contact and is free of natural latex.
