Safety & Protection
Infection Control
Cuff Sytle: These gloves feature Ansell's patent-pending SureFit Technology. SureFit™ prevents cuff rull-down providing surgeons, nurses and other healthcare professionals with superior protection during operating room procedures.
Viral Penetration: Ansell's premium line of surgical gloves is periodically tested to ensure protection against blood permeation. Encore® Orthopaedic has been tested and passed the viral/blood penetration according to ASTM F1671-97a:
Bone Cement: As long as the preparation and use directions on the bone cement are followed, this glove provides a protective barrier for handling mixed bone-cement product.
Skin Protection
Protein Content: This latex glove contains 50 micrograms or less of total water-extractable protein per gram.
Thickness: Encore® Orthopaedic is 30% thicker than our standard powder-free surgical gloves. They are recommended when extra protection and puncture resistance is needed.
Comfort & Fit
Donning
Alcohol Resistance (Inner Coating): Ansell's proprietary polyurethane inner coating will not break down. It is resistant to alcohol-based hand disinfectants and adds another layer of safety between your skin and the latex.
Damp-Hand Donnability: Polymer coating for dry and damp-hand donnability
Double Donnability: This glove is recommended to be an over glove because of its textured surface.
Hand Fatigue
Stretchability (Modulus): Because this glove is latex, wearers experience a more secure fit that provides greater comfort without being baggy.
Shape of Glove/Former: Designed with Anatomical Curved Former for a more natural fit and less fatigue. This exclusive Ansell former is the result of a staff dedicated to the development and continuous improvement of formers.
Tactile Sensitivity
Dependability: The thickness of these gloves is optimized for the best balance of protection and tactile sensitivity, all while allowing for a comfortable fit during the majority of surgical procedures.
Grip
Application Driven: A textured finish means unequalled reliability when using certain orthopaedic instruments that require greater gripping capability.
This product contains natural rubber latex, which may cause allergic reactions.
This latex glove contains 50 micrograms or less of total water-extractable protein per gram.
CAUTION: Safe use of this glove by or on latex-sensitized individuals has not been established.
