Anybody got a reasonably priced source for 3mil nitrile no powder XL gloves?
Maybe some in 7 or 9mil also?
I used to get them from HF, but they are completely unreliable- 1 case a week, (maybe) random sizes, gone in 10 mins, have to be there when the truck unloads, could be any day of the week, any time of day, etc.
After decades of shop & lab work, my hands are sensitized to oils & solvents, so I need the gloves for the shop.
Can't find them anywhere in town except at ridiculous prices.
Down to about 1/2 a box left.
Any help appreciated.

I bought some ULINE SECURE GRIP™ NITRILE GLOVES - POWDER-FREE, ORANGE, XL from Uline.com. Expensive at $17 for a box of 50 but they are great gloves. Nice grip and durable, I reuse them all the time.

Might check RK on line and HF on line, or TS on line. Some times you can find stuff on line that just dont last in the stores. Just a thought, or Im guessing you did the fleabay and antmazon thing

Nearest TS (100mi) laughed at me, struck out at auto parts stores & hardware stores, HD shows them online until you order, then out of stock, etc.
No luck on fleabay or antmazon.
Have not tried hair salon suppliers or RK.
Had not heard of B&H photo.
Will try your suggestions, thanks.

in the good ol' days, real mechanics never wore gloves............
..then again, they'd also FIX busted stuff, not replace whole units....

Try searching “Milking Gloves”. We used them, and they still are, used milking cows to keep from spreading bacteria from cow to cow. Most are a nitrile blue glove.

McMaster Carr is where I get mine. They have every kind of glove you would want. Never the cheapest place to buy, though.

Completely unexpected, a solution presented itself today. Wife went to Costco today and found 4mil, powder free, nitrile gloves in boxes of 150 for $9.99. We made a couple trips & laid in a supply, crisis averted.:)

Great to hear. Sometimes you just luck out at the right time.
