ULTRANITRIL 493

Overview

Ultranitril 493 is a long-cuff, flock-lined nitrile chemical-protective glove engineered for intensive handling of hazardous chemicals and operations involving high chemical exposure or immersion. The glove combines robust chemical resistance with mechanical durability and comfort for demanding professional applications.

Key Features

• Ultra-long cuff (approximately 39 cm) for extended forearm protection
• 0.55 mm nitrile construction offering strong resistance to many chemicals and excellent mechanical resistance (abrasion and puncture)
• Embossed outer surface for improved grip on wet or slippery objects
• Cotton flock lining for comfort, sweat absorption, and ease of donning/doffing
• Silicone-free to prevent defects on surfaces prior to painting (metal, glass)
• Available in sizes 8–11 (green only)

Applications

Ideal for handling chemical drums, degreasing metals with aggressive solvents, pesticide application and handling, cleaning printing-press rollers, timber treatment and finishing, and general maintenance involving hazardous chemicals.
