Fully textured. Consistently gripped. Built for clinical confidence from XS to XL.

The fully textured surface delivers secure grip and exceptional tactile sensitivity across the entire glove, and the beaded cuff prevents rolldown during procedures. Cream-colored, ambidextrous, non-sterile, single-use. AQL 1.5 quality standard. Available in five sizes — XS through XL — sold by the box of 100 or by the case of 1,000.

Features & Benefits
- Fully Textured Surface — Unlike fingertip-only textured gloves, Positive Touch features an all-over textured surface across the entire glove — delivering consistent grip and tactile feedback whether you are gripping with fingertips, palm, or the full hand. This is particularly valuable during instrument handling, specimen work, dental procedures, and any task where hand position changes frequently during a procedure
- Powder-Free — Online Chlorination Process — Positive Touch gloves are manufactured using an online (in-line) chlorination method that treats the glove surface during production to reduce tackiness and improve grip consistency — without the drying, skin-irritating effects associated with traditional post-process chlorination methods. The result is a glove that dons smoothly, leaves skin feeling softer, and provides a reliable slip-resistant finish
- AQL 1.5 — Acceptable Quality Level of 1.5 meets the standard required for medical-grade exam gloves — meaning no more than 1.5 defective gloves per 100 are accepted at inspection. This quality threshold supports reliable barrier protection across every box
- Natural Rubber Latex — Latex delivers the elasticity, flexibility, and tactile sensitivity that makes it the preferred choice for many clinical, dental, and examination applications — conforming closely to the hand for a precise, second-skin feel throughout the wear period
- 4.7 Mil Fingertip Thickness — Nominal fingertip thickness provides solid clinical-grade barrier protection appropriate for moderate to high-risk patient care situations involving blood, bodily fluids, and direct patient contact
- 9.8-Inch Length — Longer than many standard exam gloves, Positive Touch's 9.8-inch length provides extended wrist coverage — adding an extra measure of protection during procedures and patient care tasks
- Beaded Cuff — Rolled beaded cuff at the wrist supports easy donning and doffing, prevents rolldown during use, and provides a barrier against fluid running inside the glove during clinical procedures
- Ambidextrous — Fits either hand — eliminates sorting, speeds up glove changes, and reduces waste in high-volume clinical settings
- Single Use — Designed for single-use disposal — supports infection control protocols and prevents cross-contamination between patients or procedures
- Five Sizes — XS through XL — Full size range covers the complete spectrum of adult hand sizes across entire clinical teams — one SKU family for department-wide ordering

Sizing Guide
| Size | Hand Circumference (at widest point) | Typical Fit |
|---|---|---|
| X-Small | Less than 7 inches | Very small hands — pediatric or small adult |
| Small | 7 – 8 inches | Small adult hands — many female clinical and dental staff |
