Medmech Plain Long Cuff Nitrile Surgical Gloves, Color : Blue

Long Cuff Surgical Gloves are a specialized type of surgical glove designed for use in medical procedures that require extended protection. These gloves cover more of the forearm than standard surgical gloves, providing enhanced safety and reducing the risk of exposure to contaminants.

Long cuff surgical gloves are made from materials like latex, nitrile, or vinyl, which offer different levels of protection and comfort. They are specifically designed to be worn during surgeries or other medical procedures where there\\\'s a need for both hand dexterity and additional coverage of the forearm.
