Pick the gauge, not the guess
Thickness is the single decision that drives cost, dexterity and how long a glove survives the task. Here is the full TruGlove range — tap any gauge to compare.
When nothing thinner will do
Maximum protection
The thickest gauge in the line — the best puncture, abrasion and tear resistance TruGlove makes for the harshest, sharpest, dirtiest work.
Extended cuff
A longer cuff reaches over the wrist and onto the forearm, so splash, run-off and drips do not track down the arm. Tuck it over or under a sleeve.
Grip for wet work
A textured finish holds on wet, oily and soapy surfaces — the reason it earns its place on parts-wash and wash-down stations.
Powder-free, latex-free
No cornstarch residue and no natural-rubber proteins — safe to standardize across a mixed crew on heavy-duty tasks.
Heavy protection that covers the forearm
When the work is wet as well as heavy, a standard cuff is not enough. At 8.5 mil the blue extended-cuff nitrile pairs a full wall of synthetic nitrile with a longer cuff that reaches onto the forearm — so degreaser, wash water and chemical splash stay off the skin instead of running down the arm. It is the glove crews reach for at the parts washer and the wash-down station.
It is fully synthetic, so there is no natural rubber latex and no Type I allergy exposure, and it is powder-free for clean handling. The textured finish sheds oil, coolant and water to hold grip on wet metal and slick parts where a smooth glove would slip, and the extended cuff gives forearm coverage a standard beaded cuff cannot.
Where it performs
Parts washing and degreasing, chemical transfer and decanting, industrial sanitation and wash-down, plumbing and drain service, agriculture and veterinary work, and heavy janitorial. It stands up to abrasive surfaces and common shop chemistry — solvents, degreasers, fuels and oils — for the splash and immersion-adjacent contact these jobs bring.
For extended chemical immersion or a rated hazard, confirm the breakthrough data for your chemistry and use a reusable chemical-resistant glove. Need maximum grip on dry, heavy parts and a high-visibility color instead of forearm coverage? See the 8.5 mil orange heavy-duty diamond-grip. For lighter, higher-dexterity everyday work, drop to the 6.5 mil or 5.5 mil.
