How to process onsite tests for disposable latex gloves inspection in China? TESTCOO has a wide range of capabilities for disposable latex glove inspection to support manufacturers, distributors and retailers in ensuring their disposable latex gloves comply with industry and performance standards. Here is a guide to estimate disposable latex gloves, as well as nitrile gloves, vinyl gloves or medical grade gloves.

For gloves inspection, how to determine the right sample size and acceptance number?

A key quality measurement for disposable latex gloves is AQL, or Acceptable Quality Level. AQL will help you monitor and avoid batches of unsatisfactory products. So how is AQL applied in practice? According to AQL, there are three kinds of defects, critical defects, major defects and minor defects. Importers usually apply AQL of 0.0 for critical defects, AQL of 2.5 for major and AQL of 4.0 for minor defects. For example, to meet an AQL of 2.5, from 200 sample gloves randomly picked from the bulk 10,000 production, no more than 10 gloves can fail the quality inspection. For more details, please refer to: How to read AQL table?

 7 major onsite tests for disposable latex gloves inspection in China 

TESTCOO performs the following major onsite tests for disposable latex gloves:

Product view

Product Size / Weight Measurement

Water leakage test

Barcode scan test

Elongation test

Special function test

Transportation drop test

• 
  

• 1. Product view

• The color of the gloves should be clear and uniform. If you see cloudiness or variations in color, this implies low-quality disposable glove fillers are used to save money during manufacturing.

• 

• 2. Product Size / Weight Measurement

Product size and weight measurement are performed to make sure that each pair of disposable latex glove is in standard size and quality.

3. Water leakage test

Water leakage test is crucial for disposable latex gloves inspection. In this test, each gloves are filled with water at room temperature, secured at the cuff tightly and hung vertically for two minutes to check pinholes. If the water does not leak from the glove, it gets a “pass”.

4. Elongation test

Elongation at break test is also called “fracture strain” test or “tensile elongation at break” test. While it’s a destructive test as it shows how much force a material can take before failing, it’s significant in checking the function of the disposable latex gloves.

5. Barcode scan test

This test is to ensure the product barcode is printed correctly and can be scanned by mobile phones.

6. Special function test

Usually it is to check the function after fully assembling according to customers’ special acquirement, for example, the fitting test.

7. Transportation drop test

Transportation drop test, or free fall test, serves as an important indicator of product quality and durability. It is performed to make sure the products stay in its original condition from manufacturing to implementation.
