Exam-grade gloves are a different tool than industrial gloves. Where a heavy industrial glove trades feel for armor, the AMMEX Professional black nitrile exam glove is built at 3 mil so you keep fingertip sensitivity - the difference between finding a vein, feeling a small part seat correctly, or reading texture through the glove, and not. It is medical grade to an AQL of 1.5, latex free so it will not aggravate natural rubber sensitivities in staff or patients, and powder free so there is no cornstarch left behind on skin, instruments, or work surfaces. Large size, case of 1,000 gloves.
Built for
Clinics, urgent care, dental and veterinary practices, EMS and public safety, laboratories, tattoo and piercing studios, and any operation that needs a medical-grade glove with high tactile sensitivity rather than a thick industrial barrier.
Use cases
- Non-sterile medical and dental procedures where dexterity and tactile feedback matter more than maximum puncture resistance.
- EMS, police, and public safety - black nitrile is standard because it looks professional and does not telegraph fluids in the field.
- Laboratory and diagnostic work - powder free, so no particulate contaminates samples, balances, or optics.
- Tattoo, piercing, and personal care studios - textured grip on wet skin and equipment.
- Food handling and light cleaning tasks where a latex-free, food-safe glove is required.

Frequently asked questions
What does exam grade or AQL 1.5 actually mean?
AQL stands for Acceptable Quality Level and describes the pinhole defect rate allowed in a production lot. A lower number is stricter. Exam-grade gloves meeting AQL 1.5 are held to a tighter standard than general-purpose industrial gloves, which is why they are the choice for patient contact and lab work.
Is a 3-mil glove strong enough for my work?
For exams, lab work, food handling, and personal care, yes - 3 mil is the standard trade-off that preserves tactile sensitivity. If you are handling sharp parts, tools, or strong solvents all day, a 5-mil or 6-mil industrial nitrile glove is the better fit.
Are these gloves latex free and powder free?
Yes to both. They contain no natural rubber latex, so they will not trigger latex sensitivities, and they are powder free, so no cornstarch residue is left on skin, instruments, samples, or food.
Why are so many clinics and EMS crews using black gloves?
Black reads as professional in patient-facing and public-facing settings, it does not show soiling the way a light blue glove does, and it makes it easy to tell at a glance who is gloved. Many services also use color to separate exam gloves from other glove stock.
How many gloves come in a case?
This is a case of 1,000: 10 boxes of 100 gloves each, in size Large.
