Cardinal Health 2D72LS70 - Protexis Surgical Gloves Latex, Hydrogel-Coated, Powder-Free, Size 7.0, Sterile with Beaded Cuff, 200 PR/CS, 4 BX/CS
Product Overview
The Cardinal Health 2D72LS70 Protexis Surgical Gloves are latex, hydrogel-coated, sterile surgical gloves designed for superior fit, comfort, and tactile sensitivity during surgical procedures. Crafted from natural rubber latex, these gloves feature a proprietary hydrogel inner coating that facilitates smooth donning and offers a second-skin feel, making them ideal for both single and double-gloving techniques.
Engineered with an anatomical hand mold and independent thumb design, these gloves reduce hand fatigue during long procedures while providing a secure and natural fit. The beaded cuff design enhances roll-down resistance, helping maintain the gloves position throughout use.
Key Benefits

Natural rubber latex: Offers excellent strength, durability, and tactile precision for surgical environments.
Anatomical fit with independent thumb: Supports natural hand positioning, reducing fatigue and improving dexterity.
Beaded interlocking cuff: Helps prevent roll-down and supports gown cuff retention for better barrier integrity.
Powder-free and smooth finish: Minimizes the risk of powder-related complications and enhances tactile sensitivity.
