Pros & cons

Specifications

What these gloves are for

General-purpose hands-on work where you want grip and breathability rather than a disposable liquid barrier — automotive and mechanic jobs, gardening, cleaning, masonry, machine-shop parts handling, and yard work. They are compared in our nitrile-coated vs PU-coated work gloves guide, and if you want cut protection instead, see our cut-resistant gloves for mechanics guide. For the coated-glove landscape, our Ansell HyFlex guide covers the premium end, and the background on the material is in our nitrile gloves complete guide.

Compatibility

The nitrile palm handles oils, grease, and incidental chemical and water contact, but a dipped glove is not a sealed barrier — for handling liquids or aggressive chemicals, use a dedicated chemical-resistant glove. If you need a full disposable barrier for food or clean tasks, pair these with a box from the nitrile gloves range.

How these gloves compare

Against premium coated work gloves, the Ansell HyFlex 11-840 and the PIP MaxiFlex G-Tek add micro-foam nitrile and finer gauge for dexterity, while the Ergodyne ProFlex 7000, 7001, and 7043 offer a range of coatings and cut options. The Grease Monkey is the value, high-count everyday pick. Browse the full trade gloves collection, the material handling gloves range, and the wider hand protection lineup organized by coating, grip, and use.

Safety note: these are latex-free, so they suit workers with a latex allergy — but a nitrile-dipped work glove is a grip-and-abrasion glove, not a sealed liquid barrier and not cut-rated. Do not rely on them for chemical immersion, sharp-edge cut protection, or clean/food tasks that need a full disposable barrier; match the glove to the hazard, and retire any glove once the coating wears through.

Ordering FAQ

Are Grease Monkey nitrile coated work gloves in stock and ready to ship?
Availability changes — open the linked listing for live price, size, and pack options before you order.

Are these disposable or reusable?
Reusable. Unlike a disposable exam glove, these have a knit shell with a nitrile-dipped palm — they are washable and last through many jobs, which is why reviewers use a pair for weeks or months.

What does nitrile coated (nitrile dipped) mean?
The knit glove is dipped so the palm and fingers are coated in nitrile for grip and oil resistance, while the back stays as breathable knit fabric so your hand does not sweat like it would in a full disposable glove.

Are they touchscreen compatible?
Yes — you can use a phone or tablet without taking the glove off, which saves time on the job.

Are they latex-free?
Yes — the construction is latex-free, so they suit workers with latex sensitivities or skin sensitivities, with no natural-rubber proteins.

Are they chemical and water resistant?
The nitrile-dipped palm resists water and gives protection against oils, grease, and incidental chemical contact. They are not a sealed chemical glove, so for handling liquids or aggressive chemicals use a chemical-resistant glove.

What are they best for?
General-purpose hands-on work: automotive and mechanic tasks, gardening, cleaning, masonry, machine-shop parts handling, and yard work where you want grip and breathability — see more picks in the material handling gloves range.

Do they offer cut protection?
No — these are general-purpose grip gloves, not cut-rated. If you need cut resistance, choose a glove with a stated ANSI cut level from our cut-resistant gloves for mechanics guide.

How is the fit and what sizes come in the pack?
The knit shell stretches for a snug, close fit, and they fit either hand. This listing is a 12-pack in Large; the glove runs close-fitting, so size accordingly.

How do I care for them?
They can be washed and reused. Let them dry fully before storing, and retire a glove once the nitrile coating wears through or the knit tears.

How do they compare to disposable nitrile gloves?
Disposable nitrile gloves give a full liquid barrier for food, medical, and clean tasks; these coated work gloves give better grip, durability, and breathability for hands-on jobs but are not a full barrier — our nitrile-coated vs PU-coated guide covers the coated-glove options. Many shops keep both.

How do I reorder for a crew?
Reorder from this page — the listing and its linked item stay constant, so restocking a crew with the same 12-pack from the hand protection range takes seconds.
