Assessed on the standards the product is actually certified to and on how the format fits a working shift, by Steven Eaton, WC Safety editor.
Rating shown is the Amazon customer rating at the time of writing, not our own score. Specification-based assessment by Steven Eaton, WC Safety Editorial, from the published SAS Safety listing and ANSI/ISEA 105 hand-protection ratings. We have not hands-on or laboratory-tested this product.
The 6594-20 is Value-Touch without the powder: the same industrial-grade, high-turnover latex economics in the powder-free finish modern settings require β the general-purpose latex box for sites that banned powder but kept latex.
sas safety 6594-20 value-touch powder-free latex β what the listing actually specifies
Key details from the SAS Safety listing
A cut level is not a puncture, chemical or heat rating. ANSI/ISEA 105 scores those hazards on separate scales, and a glove chosen for blade contact can be the wrong glove for a needle, a solvent or a hot part. Anyone with a latex allergy must also check the liner and the coating material, not just the outer surface.

Where this model fits
It covers quick dry tasks at volume; its powdered stablemate survives only in rough-work niches, and the exam-grade and nitrile siblings serve breach-sensitive and oil-exposed work respectively.
Category guidance lives in our disposable glove selection guide and the material comparison reference; sizing is covered by the glove size chart.
How we assess this product
WC Safety is an independent PPE review and research site. We do not sell, ship, or stock anything, and we have not physically tested this latex glove. What we do is read the published SAS Safety specification against the governing standard, flag what the listing does and does not state, and place the product in context next to the alternatives we cover. Where a number matters for compliance - a rating, a class, a temperature, a voltage - we take it from the manufacturer listing and expect you to confirm it on the live listing before you buy. The star rating on this page belongs to Amazon customers, not to us. Read more across our anti-vibration gloves and workplace PPE coverage.

What to check before you buy
- Latex allergy risk
- Natural rubber latex proteins can cause allergic reactions ranging from contact dermatitis to systemic responses. Where allergy is a concern, nitrile is the usual substitute.
- Powder-free only
- The FDA banned powdered patient examination gloves and powdered surgeons gloves in the US in 2017, in part because powder carries latex protein into the air.
- Exam grade versus industrial
- Medical examination gloves are cleared by the FDA against defined criteria; industrial-grade gloves are not held to the same requirements.
- Chemical limits
- Latex handles water-based chemicals and many acids and bases reasonably, but performs poorly against oils and many solvents where nitrile is the better choice.

Common questions about this model
How do powder-free gloves don easily?
Finish treatments β chlorination or polymer coating β replace powder's slip. The practical difference day-to-day is nothing; the housekeeping and allergen-transfer difference is why powder-free is the default.
Same glove as the powdered Value-Touch otherwise?
Same grade and platform philosophy: industrial AQL, light mil, volume economics. Choose between them purely on the powder question β and in most modern settings that question is already answered.
When should this box be nitrile instead?
At the first sign of oil, solvents, or an unresolved latex-allergy survey. Latex's elasticity advantage is real but narrow; nitrile removes two whole categories of risk for a small feel penalty.
