- What it is. The Microflex Supreno SE SU-690 is a powder-free nitrile exam glove from Ansell, made with a strong nitrile formulation for durable hand protection. It is 245 mm (9.65 inches) long, has textured fingertips for grip, and has a freedom from holes to a 0.65 AQL. LabPro sells five sizes from XS to XL, and every SKU is a case of 1,000 gloves, packed 100 to a dispenser box.
- Why it matters. Ansell built the SU-690 as a robust glove for many tasks, and its nitrile formulation avoids natural rubber latex protein, which removes the Type I latex allergy risk. A 0.65 AQL means very few pinholes are allowed in a lot, which supports barrier protection against potentially hazardous substances. Ansell recommends it for sample taking and processing, raw material sample collection, and general-purpose automotive aftermarket work such as tire rotation and changes, so one glove style can cover lab, shop, and sampling stations.
- How it performs. Palm thickness is 0.11 mm (4.3 mil) and finger thickness is 0.18 mm (7.1 mil), so the fingertips carry extra material where hands grip. Freedom from holes is tested to ASTM D5151 and EN 455-1 at inspection level I. Listed standards include ASTM D6319, EN 1149-1/2/3, EN ISO 21420:2020, and FDA 21 CFR 177.2600; the glove is also listed as US QSR/FDA 510(k) medical examination grade.
- Materials and packing. Gloves are packed 100 to a dispenser box and 10 boxes to a case, for 1,000 gloves. The glove is violet blue with a polymer-coated interior, and Ansell lists it as antistatic and not recommended for double gloving. The glove is not chemotherapy-rated, so choose a drug-tested glove where that matters. Each SKU is one size, so match the boxes you order to the sizes your team wears.
Applications / Common Uses
- Inspection and assembly of parts. Inspection, selection, and checking of parts are listed uses, where the textured fingertips help hold small items.
- Equipment repair and maintenance. The 0.18 mm finger wall adds material at the fingertips for repair and maintenance work around oils and fluids.
- Sample taking and raw material collection. Ansell's application list includes sample taking and processing, where a 0.65 AQL limits pinholes between the sample and the hand.
- Maintaining lab furniture and equipment. The 245 mm length and durable nitrile suit wipe down benches and equipment in a lab.
- Staff protection against Type I latex allergy. Ansell lists protection from Type I latex allergy as a benefit, because the nitrile formulation contains no natural rubber latex.
