Exam Gloves

What You'll Find in This Collection

• Nitrile exam gloves: A popular latex-free option known for durability and tactile sensitivity. Options like the McKesson Confiderm 3.5C Nitrile Exam Glove and the McKesson Confiderm 4.5C Nitrile Exam Glove offer varying thicknesses to match different task demands.
• Latex exam gloves: A traditional choice valued for a close, comfortable fit and reliable barrier protection in clinical environments.
• Vinyl and stretch vinyl exam gloves: A cost-effective, latex-free alternative well suited for lower-risk, general-purpose tasks.
• Polyisoprene surgical gloves: Designed for operating room environments where precision and a secure fit are essential. The DermAssist Prestige Polyisoprene Surgical Glove is one example of this higher-specification category.
• Finger cots: Protective coverings for individual fingers — useful when a full glove isn't required. See the Urocare Finger Cot as an example of this specialty item.

How to Choose the Right Glove

• Consider the material first. Nitrile is a strong all-around performer and latex-free. Latex offers excellent fit for those without sensitivities. Vinyl suits general-purpose, lower-risk tasks. Polyisoprene is designed for surgical precision.
• Match the thickness to the task. Thinner gloves improve dexterity for detailed work; thicker gloves provide added durability for extended procedures.
• Check for powdered vs. powder-free. Most clinical settings today prefer powder-free gloves to reduce contamination risk — many products in this collection are powder-free.
• Don't overlook sizing. A well-fitted glove reduces hand fatigue and improves control. Most brands in this collection offer a full size range from XS to XL.
• Exam vs. surgical grade. Exam gloves are appropriate for most clinical and procedural tasks. Surgical gloves, such as those from Molnlycke and Ansell, meet higher standards intended for operating room use. Consult your facility's protocols when in doubt.
