McKesson Perry Performance Plus Latex Surgical Glove Size 8 - Sterile

In this review of the McKesson Perry Performance Plus disposable sterile latex surgical glove, the bottom line is clear: these gloves are designed for clinicians who need reliable, sterile barrier protection with enhanced donning performance. The reviewer found them best suited to operating room and procedural use where a combination of fingertip sensitivity and extended cuff protection matters. The gloves arrive in dedicated left/right sterile pairs, are gamma sterilized and powder-free, and the continuous polymer coating plus SureFit technology make them noticeably easier to don on both dry and damp hands.

Key Features

• Sterile, single use: Gamma sterilization and individual left/right pairs help maintain aseptic technique and reduce contamination risk.
• SureFit technology: The engineered roll-down protection improves cuff handling and reduces the chance of tearing during gowning.
• Continuous polymer coating: Makes donning faster and more reliable on dry or damp hands, saving time in urgent situations.
• Extended beaded cuff: At roughly 11 in length for size 8.5, the extended cuff gives extra forearm coverage during procedures.
• Powder-free latex: Eliminates powder-related post-operative complications and reduces patient sensitivity issues compared with powdered options.
• Fingertip sensitivity: Smooth finish with a 9 mil fingertip thickness preserves tactile feedback for fine manipulation.

Who It's For

These gloves are aimed at surgeons, scrub techs and procedural clinicians who require sterile, disposable latex protection with good tactile sensitivity and an extended cuff for additional forearm coverage. The combination of gamma sterilization and dedicated sterile pairs makes them suitable for OR and sterile field work.

Clinicians with moderate to severe natural latex allergy should look elsewhere, since these are natural rubber latex gloves; facilities that require non-latex nitrile alternatives or reusable options will need a different product.
