Microflex MFXMF-300-L Mircoflex Diamond GripTM Powder Free Latex Exam Gloves

The Microflex MFXMF-300-L is a Diamond Grip powder free latex exam glove, large, 100 gloves per box, 10 boxes per case.

Latex is the material and it is the specification that needs stating plainly, because it is both this glove's strength and its disqualifier.

Latex's strength is that nothing else feels like it. Natural rubber has elasticity and tactile transmission that nitrile still does not match — a latex glove conforms to the hand and lets the wearer feel what they are touching. For fine work, that matters.

The disqualifier is allergy. Natural rubber latex causes genuine allergic reactions, occasionally severe, and sensitisation develops with exposure — someone who tolerated latex for years can react. That is why healthcare largely moved away from it and why any facility using latex needs a nitrile alternative available. Anyone with a known sensitivity cannot use this glove.

Powder free addresses part of the problem. Powder was a donning aid, and it carried latex protein into the air, which is how latex affected people who were not wearing the gloves.

The Diamond Grip name refers to the textured pattern. Texture displaces liquid film between glove and object — the same principle as a tyre tread — which is what maintains grip when things are wet or oily.

Applications include automotive, industrial, laboratory, and first response.
