Description

Gammex Powder Free Latex Gloves by Ansell are expertly crafted to meet the demanding needs of surgical environments. These gloves are made from natural rubber latex and are designed to be powder-free and sterile, ensuring a clean and safe experience for medical professionals.

Key Features

• Color: The brown/tan hue of these gloves is specifically chosen to minimize surgical glare, thereby reducing eye fatigue during prolonged procedures.

• Ergonomic Design: With an anatomically designed former, these gloves provide exceptional comfort and reduce hand fatigue. The extra soft formulation enhances dexterity and tactile sensitivity, making them ideal for intricate surgical tasks.

• Grip and Surface: The gloves feature a smooth external surface with a micro-textured finish, offering a secure grip even in wet conditions. This moderate grip level ensures precise handling of surgical instruments.

• Cuff Design: Equipped with SUREFIT™ Technology, the straight or beaded cuff prevents roll-down, maintaining a secure fit throughout use. These gloves can be used as either an outer glove or an underglove for double gloving.

Advanced Coating Technology

The internal surface of the gloves is polymer-coated with DERMASHIELD™ Technology or chlorinated, allowing for easy donning and doffing on both dry and damp hands. This feature is particularly beneficial in fast-paced surgical settings.

Thickness and Sensitivity

Available in standard or micro thickness, these gloves are 15–20% thinner than typical latex surgical gloves, depending on the variant. This design provides high tactile sensitivity without compromising on protection. The fingertip thickness is approximately 0.185 mm, where specified.

Allergy Reduction

Gammex gloves undergo additional cleaning processes to reduce latex proteins and chemical accelerators, minimizing the risk of Type I latex or Type IV chemical allergies. However, they are not specifically designed for complete allergy prevention.

Certifications and Standards

These gloves are certified for ergonomic comfort and performance by United States Ergonomics. They are tested for use with chemotherapy drugs in accordance with ASTM D6978 and comply with numerous international standards, ensuring robust protection and barrier performance.

Available in sizes ranging from 5.5 to 9.5, the gloves are packaged with environmental consciousness. Each box contains 50 pairs, with 4 boxes per carton. The packaging is recyclable, contains 50–70% recycled material, and is designed for efficient shipping. Manufacturing facilities utilize 100% green electricity where specified.

Recommended Use

These gloves are highly recommended for surgical procedures requiring high sensitivity and dexterity, including microsurgery, ophthalmic, plastics, and vascular surgery. They provide secure grip and easy donning, making them a reliable choice for medical professionals worldwide.
