Ansell TouchNTuff® 93-700 Sterile Nitrile Cleanroom Gloves (Green) — ISO 5 / Class 100, Gamma-Sterilized (SAL 10-6), Extended 12" Cuff
Sterile Nitrile ISO 5 / Class 100 12" (300 mm) Extended Cuff Silicone-free Latex-free / Accelerator-free
Overview

TouchNTuff® 93-700 is a sterile, gamma-irradiated nitrile disposable glove engineered for ISO 5 (Class 100) cleanroom workflows where both microbial control and particulate discipline must be managed at the operator interface. The proprietary nitrile formulation is designed to balance comfort and durability while supporting chemical splash handling, and the extended 12-inch cuff helps protect gown-glove interfaces and reduces exposure risk during transfers, cleaning, and aseptic staging.

Ansell is SOSCleanroom’s best-in-class glove line because critical environments cannot afford “close enough” substitutes. SOSCleanroom stocks and distributes best-in-class brands to protect yield, sterility assurance, and audit confidence without compromising glove quality.

Why this glove matters in critical environments
  • Sterility assurance you can plan around: Gamma sterilized with a stated SAL of 10-6, supporting aseptic and sterile material handling expectations.
  • Operator control at the cleanroom boundary: ISO 5 / Class 100 compatibility and a published typical particle count baseline help reduce uncertainty when glove contact is unavoidable.
  • Reduced contamination transfer risk: Silicone-free design and powder-free, chlorinated interior support product integrity when residues and transfer are scrutinized.
  • Allergy risk reduction: Not made from natural rubber latex and described as chemical accelerator-free, helping facilities manage Type I and Type IV sensitivity concerns in staff populations.
  • Gowning stability: Extended, beaded cuff and SUREFIT™ cuff control concept are intended to reduce cuff roll-down during repetitive tasks and long sessions.
Typical cleanroom tasks supported
  • Cleanroom cleaning and preparation steps where sterile gloves are required at the point of use
  • Blending and compounding of solids and liquids (including controlled transfers and staging)
  • Spill or leakage cleanup where splash protection and grip matter
  • Transferring liquids and solids; loading centrifuges and chromatography columns
  • Assembly of parts and subassemblies in contamination-sensitive build areas
  • Weighing and dispensing of solid and liquid raw materials

Double-gloving is commonly used in ISO 5 work zones (as an underglove and/or outer glove) to manage breach risk and to enable controlled outer-glove changes without breaking gowning discipline.

Packaging and handling (sterile presentation)

Packaging is designed for staged, sterile presentation: 1 pair/poly wallet sealed in a poly envelope; 10 pairs per outer polybag; 5 sealed outer polybags per master polybag; 4 sealed master polybags per lined carton/case; 200 pairs per case.

The technical data sheet also notes more sustainable packaging components (polyethylene-based films and recycled cardboard shipper cases), but recycling eligibility varies by locality.

EU GMP Annex 1 alignment notes (practical)

Annex 1 programs typically treat gloves as part of the facility’s Contamination Control Strategy (CCS). Selection is only one control—performance depends on how gloves are donned, disinfected, changed, and documented during aseptic operations.

  • Gowning discipline: Use a validated gowning sequence, avoid skin contact with the glove exterior, and confirm cuff overlap with sleeves to protect the boundary.
  • Disinfection workflow: If your CCS requires glove disinfection, use validated sterile disinfectants (and contact times) compatible with nitrile; avoid over-wetting that can drive liquids under cuffs.
  • Change strategy: Define “change triggers” (tear/snag, touch of non-controlled surfaces, task breaks, or time-based changes) and train for rapid, controlled replacement.
  • Documentation: Maintain lot/expiry traceability, and ensure glove type/size is controlled under change management so substitutions do not introduce process drift.
Storage and lifecycle control
  • Store away from direct sunlight in a dry location, in original packaging, and away from ozone sources.
  • Use FIFO and track expiration dates at the point of use; sterile presentation integrity should be verified before staging into ISO-classified areas.
  • If the pouch or seals are compromised, treat the pair as non-sterile and replace per your CCS/SOP.

TouchNTuff® 93-700: sterile, green nitrile glove with extended cuff for ISO Class 5 workflows.
1) Practical solutions in a critical environment
In ISO Class 5 / Class 100 areas, gloved hands are often the most frequent point of contact with product-adjacent surfaces, tools, transfer items, and primary containers. TouchNTuff® 93-700 is designed for sterile cleanroom workflows where you need consistent operator control, a defined sterility assurance level (SAL), and particulate discipline at the gown-glove interface.
Contamination control context: In the U.S., many programs anchor glove and gowning discipline to FDA cGMP expectations and aseptic processing guidance, plus USP <797>/<800> where applicable. EU GMP Annex 1 is a useful secondary benchmark for Contamination Control Strategy (CCS) thinking (risk-based controls, validated disinfection, documented change triggers), but it is not a U.S. legal requirement. The practical expectation is consistent across frameworks: control touches, control transfers, and document what matters.
Why SOS emphasizes Ansell: Ansell is SOSCleanroom’s best-in-class glove line because critical environments cannot afford “close enough” substitutes. SOSCleanroom stocks and distributes best-in-class brands to protect yield, sterility assurance, and audit confidence without compromising glove quality. Cleanroom Technology independently reported (June 20, 2023) that SOS Cleanroom Supply became an Ansell authorized distributor.
2) What is this glove used for
  • Aseptic handling and sterile staging tasks where sterile disposable gloves are required at the point of use.
  • Weighing and dispensing of solid and liquid raw materials in contamination-controlled build or manufacturing zones.
  • Transfers of liquids and solids; loading centrifuges and chromatography columns; spill or leakage cleanup where splash risk exists.
  • Assembly of parts and subassemblies in ISO-classified cleanroom workflows where glove particles and residues are tightly controlled.
3) Why should customers consider this glove
  • Sterility assurance with a defined benchmark: gamma sterilized with a stated SAL of 10-6 for sterile workflows.
  • ISO Class 5 alignment: designed for Class 100 / ISO 5 cleanroom environments with a published typical particle count baseline.
  • Residue discipline: silicone-free plus powder-free, chlorinated interior to reduce contamination-transfer risk where residues are scrutinized.
  • Allergy-risk reduction: latex-free and described as chemical accelerator-free to support Type I and Type IV sensitivity management.
  • Gowning stability: extended, beaded cuff and SUREFIT™ cuff control concept intended to reduce cuff roll-down during repetitive tasks.
  • Chemotherapy drug testing note: tested per ASTM D6978 (with the manufacturer note that it is not listed in the U.S. FDA 510(k)).
4) Materials and construction
Material: nitrile. Form factor: ambidextrous, extended-cuff glove with beaded cuff and textured fingers; powder-free with a chlorinated internal surface (published). The nitrile platform removes natural rubber latex proteins and is often selected to reduce latex allergy concerns in staff populations.
Construction is only half of ISO 5 performance. The other half is how gloves are introduced, donned, disinfected (if your CCS/SOP permits), and changed. This is where most investigations find drift: touch discipline, change triggers, and transfer shortcuts.
5) Specifications in context
TouchNTuff® 93-700 is positioned for ISO Class 5 use where sterile intent, extended cuff coverage, and residue control (silicone-free, powder-free interior) are selection drivers. Use the specification table below as a qualification checklist, then confirm acceptance criteria with your internal methods and lot documentation.

7) Packaging, sterility, and traceability
Packaging is designed for staged sterile presentation to support controlled donning and inventory management. Maintain lot and expiration traceability in your CCS and treat pouch integrity as a go/no-go control at the point of use.
  • Packaging (published): 1 pair/poly wallet sealed in a poly envelope; 10 pairs/outer polybag; 5 sealed outer polybags/master polybag; 4 sealed master polybags/lined carton/case; 200 pairs/carton (case).
  • Sterilization (published): gamma irradiation (25 kGy) with stated SAL 10-6.
  • Declarations: EU and UK Declarations of Conformity are available (SOS-hosted PDFs) for documentation packets and supplier qualification files.
  • Storage and expiry: shelf life stated as 3 years; expiration date is indicated on packaging (published).
8) Best-practice use (operator-level)
In ISO Class 5 operations, glove performance is dominated by handling discipline. The most common failures are not material failures — they are technique drift and inconsistent change logic.
  • Build a clear glove-change trigger set: time-based changes, task-based changes (post-cleaning, post-transfer, post-waste handling), and event-based changes (touching non-controlled surfaces, snag, puncture, wetting under cuff).
  • Protect the gown-glove boundary: ensure consistent cuff overlap and avoid pulling sleeves back after the glove exterior is “in service.”
  • Disinfection discipline (if allowed by SOP): apply validated sterile disinfectant with defined contact time. Avoid over-wetting that can drive liquid under cuffs and create uncontrolled transfer.
  • Double-gloving where risk is higher: change outer gloves frequently without breaking gowning discipline. This is often the simplest control for managing repeated touches and micro-breaches.
  • Control transfer items: treat pouches, wallets, and overwraps as part of material transfer control. Do not stage compromised packaging into ISO 5 zones.
ISO Class 5 matching suggestions (Texwipe): In ISO 5 workflows, pair gloves with sterile, low-linting wiping and detail-cleaning tools that match the same cleanroom discipline. No wiper is truly “zero-lint” across every surface condition and operator method, so selection plus technique controls matter.

For over 35 years, SOS and Texwipe have been close partners, and SOSCleanroom is the authorized Master Distributor of ITW Texwipe for the United States market. That continuity supports CCS expectations for stable consumables, consistent documentation, and predictable re-qualification cycles.
9) Common failure modes
  • Under-changing: “one pair, many tasks” drives uncontrolled transfer and is a common deviation root cause.
  • Boundary breaks: touching non-controlled surfaces (doors, carts, keyboards) and returning to ISO 5 work without a defined change/disinfect action.
  • Over-wet disinfection: excessive liquid, poor contact-time discipline, or wet gloves contacting critical surfaces.
  • Pouch integrity ignored: compromised seals or damaged packaging introduced into sterile areas.
  • Compatibility gaps: using the glove outside validated chemical/disinfectant exposure limits in your process.
10) Closest competitors
When comparing sterile ISO 5 gloves, prioritize packaging presentation, published cleanliness and integrity metrics (particles, AQL), residue control (silicone/powder/processing aids), and documentation set (data sheet, declarations, lot/expiry controls).

11) Critical environment fit for this glove
TouchNTuff® 93-700 is a strong fit when your ISO Class 5 workflow needs sterile intent, extended cuff coverage at the gown-glove boundary, and a defined documentation set for supplier qualification and change control. It is commonly positioned for aseptic handling, contamination-controlled manufacturing tasks, and chemical splash scenarios where durability and dexterity matter.
For CCS alignment, treat gloves as a controlled consumable: train for change triggers, validate disinfection methods where required, enforce packaging integrity checks, and maintain lot/expiry traceability. Selection is only one control — performance is operational.
Program reliability note: SOSCleanroom supports critical environments with fast shipping, excellent customer service, fair pricing, and continuity of supply so methods do not drift due to substitutions when re-qualification is expensive.
12) SOSCleanroom note about SOP's
The Technical Vault is written to help customers make informed contamination-control decisions and improve day-to-day handling technique. It is not your facility’s Standard Operating Procedure (SOP), batch record, or validation protocol.
Customers are responsible for establishing, training, and enforcing SOPs that fit their specific risks, products, equipment, cleanroom classification, and regulatory obligations. Always confirm material compatibility, cleanliness suitability, sterility requirements, and acceptance criteria using your internal quality system and documented methods.
If you adapt any technique guidance from this entry, treat it as a starting template. Your team should review and approve the final method, then qualify it for your specific surfaces, disinfectants, contact times, cleanliness limits, inspection methods, and risk profile. In short: use these best-practice suggestions to strengthen your SOPs — not to replace them.
