• What it is. These extended cuff nitrile gloves are Ansell Microflex Supreno EC SEC-375, a non-sterile, powder-free exam glove in violet blue with a beaded cuff and an overall length of 295 mm (11.6 inches). The extra length covers the wrist and part of the forearm. LabPro lists seven sizes, XS through 3XL, with 500 gloves per case for XS through 2XL and 400 gloves per case for the 3XL.
  • Why it matters. Ansell designed the SEC-375 for workers who handle drugs and chemicals, not just airborne dust. It is tested for use with chemotherapy drugs in accordance with ASTM D6978, and Ansell lists it as US FDA cleared. It also satisfies NFPA 1999 emergency medical glove requirements, so one glove serves healthcare staff, first responders, and lab workers, and the extended cuff adds wrist and forearm protection.
  • How it performs. Palm thickness is 0.14 mm (5.5 mil) and finger thickness is 0.22 mm (8.7 mil), so the glove is thicker where hands grip and touch. Freedom from holes is held to a 0.65 AQL, a low acceptable quality limit that signals tight barrier control. Ansell describes the nitrile as resistant to rips, snags, and tears, lists ASTM D6319 compliance, and also lists the glove as antistatic. EN ISO 21420:2020, the general standard for protective gloves, is also among its listed standards.
  • Materials and packing. Gloves are packed 50 per dispenser box and 10 boxes per case, so a standard case holds 500 gloves. The 3XL ships 40 gloves per box and 400 per case. Each glove is ambidextrous and unlined, with textured fingers and a polymer coating. The SEC-375 is non-sterile, so pick a sterile glove for aseptic work and use this one where drug and chemical exposure is the concern.

Applications / Common Uses

  • Handling chemotherapy drugs. Ansell lists the glove as tested for use with chemotherapy drugs per ASTM D6978, with an extended cuff that adds wrist and forearm coverage.
  • Emergency medical response. The glove meets NFPA 1999 emergency medical glove requirements, which Ansell cites for healthcare professionals and first responders.
  • Laboratory work. Ansell names lab workers among the users, and the glove is thicker at the fingers (0.22 mm) than at the palm (0.14 mm).
  • Healthcare tasks with splash risk. Ansell notes that the extended cuff offers forearm and wrist protection for medical workers.
  • Work needing durable nitrile. The formulation resists rips, snags, and tears, which suits repeated handling during long shifts.
