Ansell MICROFLEX SafeGrip SG-375 Extra Thick Disposable Latex Gloves for Life Sciences, Automotive w/Textured Fingertips - Large, Blue (Box of 50)

Right off the bat, I discovered the box was opened, but it was probably just smashed due to Amazon shipping a cardboard box of gloves in a padded envelope. Amazon, please get your packaging right. Ship disposable gloves in a box so customers like me can receive a health-related product that does not have the appearance of being opened/smashed. The box the gloves came in matched the product pictured on the Amazon product page. The enclosed gloves matched the product description perfectly. Large size, Latex, Long Cuff, Thick (11 mils I think, and they sure fell like 11 mil gloves), 50 gloves to a box (25 pairs), Textured Fingertips. I bought these for COVID-19 protection, but they are clearly made for much more than that. These gloves are suitable for hard work. The box says they are made in Malaysia. I inspected every glove (overkill, perhaps) and every glove in the box is top quality. Finally found what I was looking for.

I use these regularly for automotive work. SafeGrip gloves are tough and do not puncture or tear easily. Their thickness prevents most of the minor cuts and burns you normally get turning wrenches, and when you get the correct size, you're still able to feel and manipulate small fasteners... I wear a medium golf glove but use Large SafeGrip's. These gloves also protect you from accidental glances against hot engine parts or fluids. DO NOT use these as a replacement for heat resistant gloves. If I'm working on something involved and need to go in the house, I'll use a Grime Boss hand wipe to clean the gloves and leave them on instead of having to waste another pair. These gloves last, and they cost too much to toss every time you take them off. The only drawback is my hands sweat but, that's characteristic of any "rubber" glove I wear.

At the price of disposable gloves, these gloves are amazingly long lasting - more durable than the "living gloves" you find at the grocery stores. They're actually called disposable gloves, although I've been using the same pair every day since these arrived more than 2 weeks ago - for everything from painting the front gate to scouring baked grease off the stove with steel wool - and they haven't leaked yet. The store-bought gloves would have been torn by now or punctured by my long fingernails . These gloves are long enough that you can wash dishes with them, proivided you don't lift your hands upward and let the water flow over your arm and then back down into the glove - in other words, they're not quite long enough to form a cuff to catch drips. Yet they're thin enough to feel what you're handling. I ordered a size large even though I would ordinarly wear a medium, and I'm glad I did, because it makes them easy to put on and take off.

They're tough, they have textured gripping surfaces on the fingers, they are somewhat affordable, and they have good QC - I don't see too many defective gloves. I use them in my machine shop, primarily to keep smelly cutting fluids out of my skin, as well as glues and any other messy goops. They are comfortable and if sized right so there are no wrinkles, they are probably safer in terms of snag potential, than leather gloves, although obviously they do not offer the same abrasion protection as leather. It was a race car mechanic who turned me on to these.

Just what I needed

The first glove I put on had a flaw in one finger and the tip ripped off with a gentle pull. My first thought was that these were no good. But I found all the others that I have used very durable. I have used a single pair for a week to do many tasks that included weeding, cutting firewood, painting, driving a tractor, mechanical work, and carpentry -- and they are still in good shape with no tears or holes. The long wrist length is very good for protecting the lower arm and the gloves provide pretty good dexterity. My hand width is 4.5 in so I bought the large size. When I first put them on they were a little tight but I found they retain a stretch so that they are comfortably looser when putting them on a second or more times. Of course, as with all rubber gloves, your hands will be wet with sweat when you take them off. But that is better than the harsh drying you get from split leather gloves. For really heavy work I put lather gloves on over these.

Much thicker than standard latex or nitrile gloves. I use them in my wood shop and have yet to puncture one. Multiple uses from one pair, just wash hands with soap & water. Unlike nitrile gloves these pop out of the box unwrinkled and spring into shape. The insides are super-slippery, easy to pull on, and I've never ripped off the rolled edge as often happens with other gloves. Finger tips are rough for gripping. Love these. One box has lasted me almost a year, on my last pair now, will definitely order again.

Looked for the Kimberly-Clark Safeskin gloves, but apparenly these have taken over the product line. Not as flexible/durable as KC Safeskins. They will tear easily unless you slowly put them on. Good protection so far. Gloves cover your wrist. Hope that improvements will be made to this product, then I will buy again.

When they arrived, the product’s claims were, indeed obvious: These latex gloves are longer than the standard options, a full 12-inches long from tip of the finger to the end at the extended rolled cuff. I gamely donned a pair for a test drive. When you put them on, they feel thick but you’ll have the dexterity and tactility you need to deal with household cleaning, gardening, or other dirty jobs. They are made of natural rubber latex (beware people with allergies) and provides durable barrier hand protection against exposure to harsh soap and cleaning chemicals. Unlike store-bought dish washing gloves, these are ambidextrous and unlined but very slippery smooth inside. They glide on and snap off easily; the fit is tailored and snug, very comfortable from the tip of my fingers through my forearms. The gloves exterior is also smooth, but heavy texturing along the fingers gives these rubbery companions a strong grip to handle delicate items like glassware or heavy-duty scouring of nooks and crannies. Stretchy and strong, I can see a single pair lasting for multiple uses. I’ll admit: these gloves did the job well and are pretty darn great!
