Numbers straight off the spec sheet, you can verify them yourself.
| Most "8 Mil" Gloves | This Glove | |
|---|---|---|
| Weight at Medium | Rarely published, no way to check | 8.5 grams, weigh it yourself |
| Fingertip thickness | Thickest at the palm, thin at the tips | 10.24 mil at the fingertip, thicker than the palm |
| Watertight pinhole standard | AQL 4.0, industry standard | AQL 2.5, a meaningfully tighter standard |
| Finish | Standard, gets tacky in heat | Chlorinated, slides on dry |
Weigh It. 8.5 Grams At Medium.
Weight varies by size here, S is 7.9g, M is 8.5g, L is 9.1g, XL is 9.8g, XXL is 10.5g, so a Medium should weigh 8.5 grams on a kitchen scale. Not every supplier actually weighs what they ship, some just print "8 mil" on the box and never check. If a glove weighs meaningfully less than these numbers, it isn't actually 8 mil no matter what the label says, that's 31% more nitrile at Medium here, 51% more at XL. It's the only spec you can check yourself.
The Fingertip Is 10 Mil, Not 8.
Palm measures 8.66 mil. Fingertip measures 10.24 mil. Most gloves are thickest where it's easy to measure and thin out exactly where they fail, the fingertips. This one gets thicker where you actually tear it, not thinner.
AQL 2.5 On The Watertight Test.
AQL 2.5 means fewer than one in forty gloves can have a pinhole. Most industrial gloves are only tested to AQL 4.0, about one in twenty-five. This one is held to the tighter number on the watertight test specifically.
Worth knowing: these are chlorinated, a processing step most suppliers skip. That's why they slide on dry and don't get tacky sitting in a hot truck all day.
