When a thin glove tears halfway through a job, you stop, strip, and re-glove -- and whatever was on your hands is now on your forearm. The AMMEX Gloveworks Black Nitrile Examination Glove in Small is built for crews who need a disposable glove that survives a full task: 6 mil nitrile, powder-free, with a textured grip that still lets you feel a fitting thread or a hose clamp.
Nitrile matters here. It gives you latex-like stretch and tactile feedback without the latex proteins that trigger allergic reactions in coworkers and customers, and it stands up to solvents, oils, and cleaning chemistry far better than vinyl. The black color hides grease and soil, which is why automotive shops, restoration crews, and tattoo studios buy it by the case.
Use Cases
- Automotive and fleet service -- oil changes, brake work, and parts cleaning where a vinyl glove would split
- Janitorial and restoration -- chemical handling, soot and sewage cleanup, and post-construction cleaning
- Law enforcement, EMS, and public safety -- tested to resist fentanyl permeation for up to 240 minutes under ASTM D6978
- Medical, dental, veterinary, and lab work -- FDA approved for non-surgical medical use
- Tattoo and body art studios -- black finish and 6 mil thickness for long sessions
Why 6 mil
Most economy exam gloves run 3 to 4 mil. At 6 mil, this glove resists punctures, rips, and tears noticeably better than a comparable latex or vinyl disposable, which means fewer mid-task glove changes and less product burned per shift. Crews that switch from a thin glove usually find the higher per-glove cost is offset by using far fewer of them.

Frequently asked questions
Are these gloves latex free?
Yes. They are 100 percent nitrile with no natural rubber latex, so they will not trigger latex allergies in your staff or your customers.
What does 6 mil mean and why does it matter?
A mil is one thousandth of an inch. At 6 mil these gloves are roughly 50 to 100 percent thicker than a standard 3 to 4 mil exam glove, so they resist punctures, rips, and tears much better during mechanical, chemical, and restoration work.
Are they approved for medical use?
Yes. Gloveworks black nitrile gloves are examination grade and FDA approved for non-surgical medical use, and they are used in medical, dental, veterinary, laboratory, and home healthcare settings.
Do they protect against fentanyl?
They are tested to resist permeation against fentanyl for up to 240 minutes based on the ASTM D6978 standard, which is why public safety and first responder agencies specify them.
How are they packaged?
100 gloves per dispenser box and 10 boxes per case, which is 1,000 gloves per case.
