Nitrile gloves
Nitrile gloves are among the most versatile and popular work gloves. They are impermeable to liquids, particularly resistant to oils, fats and chemicals, and at the same time skin-friendly – an ideal alternative to latex gloves.
Unlike latex, nitrile gloves are latex-free and do not cause allergies. Thanks to their high abrasion resistance and puncture and cut resistance, they are widely used in trade, industry, production and the medical sector.
Whether you need black nitrile gloves for use in crafts, coated nitrile work gloves for assembly work or disposable nitrile gloves for laboratories and care – you will find the right solution for your application in the ASATEX online shop.
Manufacture and properties of nitrile
Nitrile is a synthetic rubber derived from acrylonitrile and butadiene (NBR – nitrile butyl rubber). This high-tech material makes nitrile gloves particularly durable and flexible.
The properties depend on the acrylonitrile content:
- High proportion = higher resistance to oils, fats, fuels, chemicals
- Lower proportion = greater elasticity and higher wearing comfort
The right balance is crucial: our nitrile gloves offer both protection and flexibility, enabling good tactile sensitivity while providing high resistance to chemicals and mechanical stress.
Advantages of nitrile gloves
- Chemical protection: resistant to oils, fats and solvents
- Mechanical protection: resistant to abrasion, impact and punctures
- Allergy-friendly: latex-free and skin-friendly
- Comfortable to wear: highly elastic, good grip and sensitive touch
- Versatile: suitable for industry, construction, trade, assembly, medicine and care
Black nitrile gloves are particularly popular because they make dirt and discolouration less visible – ideal for the craft and automotive industries.
Coatings and designs
Our nitrile gloves are mainly made of cotton and have different nitrile coatings:
- Full nitrile coating: optimal protection against liquids and chemicals
- Partial coating: better breathability and greater comfort
- Nitrile microfoam: particularly good grip, even with oil and moistureoating: optimal protection against liquids and chemicals
Depending on the model, our gloves are equipped with cuffs or knitted cuffs. This ensures the best grip, a secure fit and high wearing comfort.
Quality differences and durability
There are big differences between nitrile gloves. Products with a low acrylonitrile content are less durable and wear out more quickly. When purchasing, always look for certified quality and the correct standard.
Tip: Store nitrile gloves in a dry place away from sunlight to extend their durability.
