Latex or Nitrile are essentially dipping materials for your gloves and when you are about to choose the same, it can be a bit difficult to decide the pick. Nitrile and latex are the most popular when it comes to selecting work gloves and often both of these are pitted against each other as flexible, versatile, and strong to be suited in any scenario. Both of these gloves are suitable for clinical use, food use, in any lightweight and heavyweight applications, and even in environments that range from sterile or clean to dry.
If they both can be used everywhere then what are the basic differences between the two:
· The gloves coated in latex come with high elasticity, superior grip and it can withstand heat. Further, these gloves are tear-resistant and can be worked upon with glass as well. When you are looking forward to superior grip, comfort, and flexibility in a dry or wet environment, latex should be your ideal choice. Latex gloves are lightweight, naturally dexterous, and can be used in many applications.
· Gloves dipped in nitrile perform the best in a strong industrial environment. These gloves are ideas at repelling liquids and oil. These gloves can be used in hot and cold climates and they offer exceptional puncture and cut resistance.
