KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- High attenuation property: 63.0% protection from scattered radiation*
- Optimal thickness: Ideal balance of dexterity and hand protection
- Lead-free, skin-friendly formulation: Eliminates risks of lead and latex
*at a beam energy level of 60 kVp (data on file)
DESCRIPTION
- Enhanced scattered radiation protection: Suitable for use with C-Arms, these lead-free gloves reduce skin-dose exposure to scattered radiation by 63.0%, compared to just 1%** with standard surgical gloves
- Assured dexterity and tactile sensitivity: Ansell's proprietary, soft, malleable polyisoprene formulation ensures the dexterity, tactile sensitivity and comfort needed for image-guided interventional procedures (fluoroscopy)
- Reduced allergy risks: These sterile, non-latex gloves eliminate the risk of a Type I latex allergy while their non-sensitizing formulation excludes chemical accelerators known to cause allergic contact dermatitis
- Strengthened grip: These black specialty gloves also feature a textured finish for good grip control
