Chemical resistant nitrile gloves, properly specified β TouchNTuff 93-800
Most disposable nitrile only tolerates incidental splash. True chemical resistant nitrile gloves need three things standard boxes lack, and the Ansell TouchNTuff 93-800 carries all of them: an 8.3 mil wall, a 12-inch extended cuff that closes the wrist gap, and an EN 374 chemical-protection rating. That trio is why labs and chemical-handling stations specify this glove when the assessment names splash exposure. The full specification-based review covers performance and sizing; the chemical-resistant nitrile guide ranks the class.
Buyers searching ansell touchntuff nitrile gloves or shorthand touchntuff gloves usually mean this family β touchntuff is Ansell's chemical-splash disposable line, and the 93-800 is its extended-cuff flagship in the aqua colorway.

What the TouchNTuff 93-800 is for
Chemical transfer, bath work, cleanup with named splash exposure, lab benches where the safety data sheet does the glove selection. It anchors the splash end of the nitrile gloves collection and sits beside the chemical-resistant gloves collection where the immersion-grade options live. The nitrile gloves complete guide maps the family, lab crews with additive sensitivities should see the accelerator-free guide, exam-side benches run on lines like the Kimtech Sterling, and employers selecting under OSHA 1910.132 should file the permeation-chart match with the hazard assessment alongside our trade gloves selections.
Splash rating versus standard nitrile
Standard disposables β even heavy ones like the GLOVEWORKS HD 8 mil or Venom Steel 6 mil β carry no chemical rating; their thickness buys tear resistance, not permeation time. The 93-800's EN 374 rating is the actual dividing line. For everyday grime the standard tiers win on cost; the heavy-duty nitrile guide covers them, and the nitrile vs latex vs vinyl reference handles the material question.
How the 93-800 compares
Within Ansell's stable, the Microflex 93-256 (see the 93-256 review) covers grip-first industrial duty without the chemical rating. Exam-side Ansell lives in the SU-690 violet (see the SU-690 review). When exposure escalates past splash, move to immersion-grade gloves in the chemical-resistant collection matched chemical-by-chemical.
Safety note: match this glove to your hazard assessment and the maker's permeation chart. An EN 374-rated splash disposable is chemical splash hazard protection within its tested chemical panel β it is not an immersion gauntlet, carries no cut rating, and no glove substitutes for engineering controls.

The linked Amazon listing carries the manufacturer's size run. Lab-style nitrile should fit snug for instrument feel β our full 93-800 review covers sizing if you sit between sizes.

Pack count is shown on the linked Amazon listing for the configuration you select β check it before ordering.
What makes the 93-800 chemical resistant when other nitrile is not?
Three specs: an 8.3 mil wall (roughly double standard disposables), a 12-inch extended cuff covering the wrist and forearm, and an EN 374 chemical-protection rating. Standard nitrile has none of the three β it only tolerates incidental splash.
What does the EN 374 rating mean?
EN 374 is the chemical-protective glove standard β gloves carrying it are tested against permeation by specific chemicals. Check the maker's permeation chart against your safety data sheets for the chemicals you actually handle.
What is the 12-inch cuff for?
Splash work fails at the wrist gap first β the extended cuff covers the forearm zone that standard 9.5-inch disposables leave open when you reach into baths, buckets, and glassware.
What settings is the 93-800 used in?
Labs, chemical handling stations, and industrial tasks with named splash exposure β anywhere the hazard assessment says standard disposable nitrile is not enough but a full gauntlet is overkill.
Are these latex-free?
Yes β nitrile is a synthetic rubber with no natural latex proteins, safe for latex-sensitized users.
Can I immerse my hands in chemicals with the 93-800?
It is a splash-protection disposable, not an immersion gauntlet. For sustained contact or immersion, use a thick unsupported chemical glove matched to the specific chemical via its permeation data.
Are the 93-800 gloves reusable?
They are single-use disposables β after chemical contact, doff and discard per your facility's procedure. Reuse after exposure defeats the permeation protection.
TouchNTuff 93-800 or standard disposable nitrile β which do I need?
Follow the hazard assessment: named chemical splash exposure calls for the 93-800's gauge, cuff, and EN 374 rating; general grime and incidental contact is standard-nitrile territory at half the cost.
Where can I read an independent review before ordering?
