Nitrile Finger Cots

In general, finger cots are made of latex. However, latex finger cots may not be suitable for every user because of a syndrome called latex allergy.

Beside its advantage over latex finger cots on the latex allergy, nitrile finger cots have the following benefits:-

iv. They achieve cleanroom cleanliness without using chlorine or surface antistatic materials.

Nitrile finger cots are ideal for pharmaceuticals and electronic manufacturing.
