GAMMEX® Non-Latex PI Green Surgical Gloves – Size 7.5 (SKU: 20685275)

Description

The GAMMEX® Non-Latex PI Green Surgical Gloves (20685275) are sterile, powder-free polyisoprene (PI) surgical gloves engineered to deliver the fit, feel, and tactile sensitivity of natural rubber latex—without the risk of latex sensitization. Designed in size 7.5, these gloves feature a distinctive green color, making them ideal as a visible underglove in double-gloving protocols.

They incorporate Ansell’s SureFit™ technology to help prevent cuff roll-down and a polymer coating that enables easy donning, even with damp hands. The chemical accelerator-free formulation further reduces the risk of Type IV contact dermatitis, supporting safer use for sensitive staff and patients.
