The Grease Monkey General Purpose Nitrile Coated Work Gloves are a nylon-shell, nitrile-palm reusable work glove built for the consumer and light-industrial market.

Who Should Buy This
Grease Monkey is the go-to choice for automotive DIY, landscaping, light assembly, and general maintenance where workers need grip and oil resistance without the bulk of heavier industrial gloves.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are Grease Monkey nitrile work gloves machine washable?
Yes. The nylon knit shell and nitrile coating on Grease Monkey work gloves are machine washable. Wash on a gentle cycle in cold water and air dry. Avoid high heat as it can degrade the nitrile coating over time. Most pairs last 20–40 wash cycles under normal use.
What is the difference between nitrile-coated work gloves and disposable nitrile exam gloves?
Nitrile-coated work gloves like the Grease Monkey are reusable — they have a fabric liner (nylon) with a nitrile coating on the grip surface. Disposable nitrile exam gloves are single-use, made entirely of nitrile, and designed for sanitary barrier use. Work gloves provide more durability; exam gloves provide better barrier protection for clinical or sanitary tasks.
Are these cut-resistant?
No. Grease Monkey nitrile work gloves are not cut-rated. The nylon shell offers basic abrasion resistance but is not tested to ANSI/ISEA 105 cut levels. For tasks involving blades, metal edges, or glass, use ANSI-rated cut-resistant gloves. See our cut-resistant gloves collection or the ANSI cut resistance guide.
What is the touchscreen compatibility like?
Grease Monkey nitrile work gloves are touchscreen compatible, allowing use of smartphones and tablets without removing the glove. Responsiveness is typical for light-touch screens; heavy touchscreen work may require removing the glove for best accuracy.
How many pairs come in a box?
This listing is for a 12-pair box — the standard value format for the Grease Monkey General Purpose Nitrile Coated Work Gloves. Individual pairs and other multi-packs may be available through the Amazon product listing.
Can these gloves be used with grease and motor oil?
Yes. The nitrile-coated palm resists common automotive fluids including motor oil, grease, and light solvents. Nitrile has better chemical resistance than latex for petroleum-based substances. For prolonged contact with strong solvents or chemicals, upgrade to dedicated chemical-resistant gloves.
How do Grease Monkey compare to PIP MaxiFlex G-Tek?
Grease Monkey is a general-purpose consumer glove optimized for value and versatility (automotive, landscaping, DIY). The PIP MaxiFlex G-Tek uses a thinner micro-foam nitrile coating on an 18-gauge liner for finer dexterity — better suited for electronics assembly, inspection, and precision handling. Grease Monkey offers better palm durability for rough surfaces; MaxiFlex offers better tactile sensitivity.
What sizes are available?
The standard listing is for Large. Select the size that matches your hand measurement. Grease Monkey nitrile coated work gloves are available in multiple sizes through the Amazon listing — see the product page for available options.
