Andrea: Hello and welcome to Quick Tips from MSC Industrial Supply, a show where we invite the manufacturing community to share their expertise with us. When working with solvents like acetone, you can't afford to guess whether your gloves are up to the task. But finding a disposable glove that stands up to harsh solvents hasn't always been easy. That's why Ansell developed the new TouchNTuff™ 93-800, the first disposable glove on the market engineered to provide at least 15 minutes of acetone resistance. Let’s take a look!
Narrator: Workers face more than 275 million of different chemical substances in the world, and more are being discovered every day. Chemicals are everywhere. In aerospace, industry, automotive, environment, labs and more, posing serious health risks when handled. Skin irritation, eye damage, respiratory issues and long-term health complications can be a problem.
Acetone is a widely used solvent in various applications, but it is highly flammable and can cause serious irritations and health issues. North America's acetone market hit 1.9 million tons in 2023. To improve tactility when handling acetone, workers often layer disposable or mechanical gloves, a risky, uncomfortable practice.
What if a comfortable, disposable glove could offer longer protection against acetone? Meet TouchNTuff 93-800, the first disposable glove on the market to be resistant to acetone for at least 15 minutes with enhanced chemical splash protection. Featuring Ansell's MicroChem chemical barrier technology, its innovative multi-layer design resists various harsh chemicals, eliminating the need for multiple gloves.
Beyond the chemical protection, TouchNTuff 93-800 also offers extra mechanical protection. The vivid orange color enhances visibility and foreign object detection for improved safety. TouchNTuff 93-800 has an improved fit, feel, and flexibility compared to reusable chemical gloves. It is also silicone free and anti-static. The natural rubber latex in this glove is not in direct contact with the skin, which limits the risk of latex allergy reaction. This glove is part of Ansell Earth's sustainable PPE solutions.
TouchNTuff 93-800 is the natural evolution of our portfolio, built for comfort and dexterity, with at least 15 minutes of acetone resistance that matches some reusable gloves. Choose TouchNTuff 93-800. Redefining disposable acetone protection.
