Black nitrile is what a shop reaches for when a glove has to survive a whole job and still look presentable in front of a customer. The AMMEX GlovePlus X-Large Black Nitrile glove is an industrial-grade disposable built at 5 mil through the palm and 6 mil at the fingertips, which is exactly where a thin glove fails first. It is the balance point most technicians settle on: tough enough to finish a brake job or a grease-trap cleanout in one pair, thin enough that you can still feel a fitting.
The black color is not cosmetic. It hides grease, dye, and grime, so a technician working a customer-facing bay still looks professional an hour into the job. That is the single most common reason buyers move from blue to black.
Built for these jobs
- Automotive and fleet service - oil changes, brake work, and handling solvents where a thin glove tears or curdles.
- Heavy janitorial and restoration work - degreasers, disinfectants, waste handling, drain and grease-trap work.
- Tattoo studios, barbers, and salons where black gloves are the professional standard.
- Auto detailing and equipment maintenance where grip matters and hands stay dirty.
- Any task where one pair needs to last rather than being changed every few minutes.
What the construction gets you
These gloves are polymer coated for easy donning, which matters more than it sounds when a tech is pulling on a fresh pair with damp hands in a hurry. They are non-chlorinated, giving longer shelf life for buyers who stock by the case, and finished with a beaded cuff that resists rolling down the wrist. The palm is micro-roughened and the fingertips are textured for grip on wet or oily parts. At 9.5 inches from fingertip to cuff, they actually cover the wrist rather than stopping at it.
They are powder-free, so there is no powder residue to contaminate fresh paint, adhesive, or a sealing surface. The component materials comply with FDA regulations for food contact. Note that these are industrial grade gloves, not exam or medical grade.

Frequently asked questions
What mil thickness are these gloves?
They measure 5 mil through the palm and 6 mil at the fingertips, which is where wear and punctures happen first.
Are these gloves food safe?
The component materials comply with FDA regulations for food contact. They are industrial grade rather than exam or medical grade, so they are suitable for food handling but are not intended as a medical exam glove.
How long are they and will they cover my wrist?
They are 9.5 inches from fingertip to cuff with a beaded cuff that resists rolling down, so they cover the wrist rather than stopping at it.
How many gloves come in a case?
This is a case of 1,000 gloves, packed as 10 boxes of 100.
Why does my box say Gloveworks instead of GlovePlus?
They are the same glove. AMMEX consolidated the GlovePlus name into its Gloveworks brand, so newer boxes may be printed Gloveworks while the product code and specifications are unchanged.
Will they hold up to shop chemicals and solvents?
Nitrile offers roughly three times the puncture resistance of latex and stands up well to oils, greases, petroleum-based chemicals, and common cleaning solutions. Be aware that nitrile is a poor choice for acetone and lacquer thinner, where it degrades quickly. Check a chemical resistance chart for those applications.
