SuperMax Aurelia® Bold™ 73990 Black Nitrile Examination Gloves, XX-Large, Powder-Free, Chemo & Fentanyl-Rated — 100/Box

The SuperMax Aurelia® Bold™ 73990 is an XX-Large black nitrile powder-free examination glove — your go-to choice for superior puncture resistance and durability that doesn't compromise tactile sensitivity, flexibility, and all-day comfort. The rich finger texture adds a gripping finish, making it a practical solution for various applications. Chemo and fentanyl-rated, and tested to the highest international standards including EN 455 CE Class 1 Medical Grade. At 5 mil thickness, the Aurelia Bold delivers meaningful puncture resistance above the standard 3–4 mil examination glove — making it the preferred choice for healthcare, laboratory, dental, and any application where durability and chemical protection are non-negotiable. 100 gloves per dispenser box. Made in Malaysia.

Chemo and Fentanyl-Rated — Critical Protection for Healthcare and Lab Environments The Aurelia Bold's chemo and fentanyl rating is the single most important differentiating feature separating it from standard nitrile examination gloves. Chemo-rated gloves have been tested to demonstrate resistance to permeation by specific chemotherapeutic agents — providing documented protection that standard nitrile gloves cannot claim even at equivalent thickness. The fentanyl rating is increasingly critical in healthcare, emergency response, law enforcement, and laboratory settings where accidental skin contact with fentanyl and other synthetic opioids poses a serious occupational health risk. For any lab or clinical environment handling cytotoxic drugs, hazardous pharmaceuticals, or synthetic opioids, the Aurelia Bold's dual chemo/fentanyl rating is not optional — it is a documented safety requirement.

XX-Large Size — Essential Protection for the Largest Hands in Your Facility The XX-Large size is a critical but frequently understocked format — often the last size to be ordered and the first to run out in facilities with large-handed staff. An XL-handed clinician or researcher forced to wear an XL or Large glove experiences significant restriction, reduced circulation during extended wear, fatigue from the constant tension of an undersized glove, and elevated glove failure risk from the mechanical stress of overstretching the nitrile material. The Aurelia Bold XX-Large provides the same 5 mil protection, chemo rating, and fentanyl rating as every other size in the Bold line — in the properly fitted format that maintains all-day comfort and tactile sensitivity for large-handed staff working extended shifts. For facilities operating a documented chemo-rated glove program, the 73990 XXL is essential for ensuring that every staff member — regardless of hand size — has access to properly fitted, certified protection.

5 Mil Thickness — Superior Puncture Resistance Without Sacrificing Flexibility At 5 mil, the Aurelia Bold sits above the 3–4 mil range of standard nitrile examination gloves — providing a meaningful step up in puncture resistance, tear resistance, and chemical permeation resistance. In the XX-Large format where the glove material covers more surface area, the 5 mil wall is especially important for maintaining consistent puncture resistance across the larger glove geometry without thinning at stress points on the fingertips and palm.

Rich Finger Texture — Improved Grip Wet or Dry The rich finger texture of the Aurelia Bold provides a secure, confident grip on instruments, tubes, pipettes, slides, and other laboratory and clinical equipment — in both wet and dry conditions. For large-handed users working with instruments that must be gripped precisely while gloved, the finger texture in a properly fitted XX-Large format maintains the maximum possible control — uncompromised by the bunching and slipping that occurs when large-handed users are forced to wear undersized gloves.

Bold Black Color — Visual Contrast and Professional Appearance The distinctive black color provides immediate visual contrast against light-colored surfaces, reagents, and biological materials — making contamination, tears, and pinhole defects visible at a glance. The black color also projects a professional appearance in examination rooms, dental offices, tattoo studios, and client-facing clinical environments.

100% Nitrile — Latex-Free, Safe for Latex-Sensitive Users and Patients Manufactured from 100% nitrile — completely free from natural rubber latex proteins that cause Type I latex hypersensitivity reactions. For healthcare and laboratory environments with latex-sensitive staff or patients, or for facilities maintaining a latex-free policy, the Aurelia Bold is fully compliant without any latex allergy risk.

Powder-Free — No Contamination of Samples, Patients, or Environments Powder-free — eliminating starch powder contamination risk in laboratory and clinical settings. Powder-free is the only FDA-compliant option for clinical use in the United States.

Beaded Cuff — Easier Donning for Large Hands The beaded cuff provides structural reinforcement at the glove opening that facilitates faster, cleaner donning — particularly important in the XX-Large format where a wider cuff opening is needed to accommodate the larger hand without bunching or rolling. The beaded cuff maintains cuff geometry during repeated donning throughout the day and prevents roll-back during extended wear.
