Shield GD76 Clear Powder-Free Polysynthetic Gloves
The Shield GD76 Clear Powder-Free Polysynthetic Gloves are made from a blend of polythene and synthetic polymers and have been engineered to provide increased performance over polyethylene gloves. Latex free, these polysynthetic gloves are ideal for individuals with hypersensitive skin or a pre-existing latex allergy.
Hybrid Technology
Manufactured from a blend of Polythene (LDPE & LLDPE) and synthetic polymers, the Shield GD76 Gloves combine the strength of these two materials to create a tough but comfortable disposable glove. They provide an economical alternative to disposable vinyl gloves and are more durable than polyethylene gloves.
Low Allergy Risk
The Shield GD76 Polysynthetic Gloves are latex free, reducing the risk of hypersensitivity and allergic reaction associated with latex gloves. In addition, they have no nitrile content, further reducing the risk of contact dermatitis caused by the chemicals contained in nitrile products.
Embossed For Better Grip
The surface of the GD76 Gloves is embossed to provide better grip. This texturing is especially useful in applications where the wearer needs to hold tools and perform precision tasks.
Comfortable Fit
The Shield GD76 Gloves have a comfortable fit and feel for increased performance. This effectively reduces hand fatigue during extended wear.
