Showing 1 - 2 of 2 products

Disposable gloves protect your hands during short tasks, hygienic work, and contact with dirt, oil, or light chemical splashes. You can quickly put them on and throw them away after use, thus preventing contamination of your hands and products.

The selection in this collection is small: you will find two Portwest nitrile models, a powder-free disposable glove, and a thicker orange heavy-duty version, both available in boxes of 100.

Nitrile, latex or vinyl

Nitrile is the strongest, resistant to many chemicals and causes no latex allergy: in workshops and industry it's the standard. Latex fits like a second skin and gives the most feel, but can cause allergic reactions in wearers and customers. Vinyl is the most economical and fine for short, clean tasks.

Mind thickness and certification

Thickness, expressed in mil or micron, determines how long a glove stays intact under rough work. If you want chemical protection, check whether the box carries an EN ISO 374 marking; a regular exam glove only protects against splashes. Never reuse disposable gloves: micro-tears aren't visible.

Frequently asked questions

Nitrile, latex or vinyl?

Nitrile is the strongest, resistant to many chemicals and causes no latex allergy; it's the standard choice in workshops and industry. Latex fits like a second skin and offers a lot of feel, but can cause allergic reactions. Vinyl is the cheapest and fine for short, clean tasks without chemical risk.

Are disposable gloves resistant to chemicals?

Only if they've been tested according to EN ISO 374 and that's stated on the box. A regular exam glove protects against splashes and dirt, but a thin nitrile glove lets many solvents through within minutes. For real chemical work, use a thicker, reusable chemical-resistant glove.

Why choose powder-free disposable gloves?

Powder-free gloves leave no powder residue on your skin, products or surfaces. In food preparation, paintwork and electronics, such contamination is undesirable. Powder does make the gloves easier to put on, but it can irritate the skin. That is why powder-free has become the standard in most professions. With dry, clean hands, they are also easier to put on.

Which size disposable glove do I need?

A disposable glove should fit snugly around your hand without being tight. Too large gives less grip and the fingertips can catch; too small tears more easily and tires your hands. Measure the circumference of your hand just below the knuckles and compare it with the size chart. If in doubt, try one box first.
