Nitrile Full Coated Gloves: Everything You Need to Know Before You Buy
Updated: Sep 21
Nitrile full coated gloves are industrial hand gloves with a nitrile rubber coating covering the entire hand — palm, fingers, and back of hand — unlike palm-coated gloves, which leave the back of the hand uncoated. Delight Safety manufactures and supplies four nitrile full coated variants: MNF32-B (black, seamless knit liner), MNF34-WO (high-visibility orange, seamless knit liner), MNFJ33-B (blue, soft jersey liner), and MNFJ35-B (black, jersey liner with canvas wrist cuff). All four are reusable, available in Medium and Large, and suited to tasks involving oil, grease, or liquid exposure across the whole hand — not just the palm. Based in Bhiwadi, Rajasthan, Delight Safety supplies these PAN India and for export, with flexible pricing based on order quantity.
If your team's hands are in contact with liquids, splashes, or rough material across the entire palm and back of the hand — not just the palm — a palm-coated glove is going to let you down halfway through the shift. That's the gap nitrile full coated gloves are built to close. The coating wraps the whole hand, so there's no exposed knit fabric soaking up oil, grease, or moisture the way a palm-only glove would.
This guide covers what nitrile full coated gloves actually are, how nitrile gloves are made, how they're different from palm-coated and jersey-dipped styles, which of Delight's four full-coated variants fits which job, and the questions we hear most from buyers — whether you're sourcing a small-MOQ trial batch for one unit or placing a recurring bulk nitrile gloves order for a distribution network. As a nitrile gloves manufacturer and supplier based in Rajasthan, we ship PAN India, so most of this applies whether you're buying for one factory or sourcing for resale across multiple states.
What Are Nitrile Full Coated Gloves?
Nitrile full coated gloves are hand gloves where the nitrile rubber coating covers the entire glove — palm, fingers, and the back of the hand — instead of stopping at the palm. Depending on the model, the base underneath is either a seamless knitted liner (like our MNF32-B and MNF34-WO) or a softer jersey fabric liner (like our MNFJ33-B and MNFJ35-B), which is then fully dipped in nitrile.
Because nitrile is a synthetic rubber rather than natural latex, it holds up well against oils, greases, and light chemical contact, and it doesn't carry the latex-sensitivity risk that natural rubber gloves do. Within the broader category of industrial safety gloves, full-coated nitrile sits at the heavier-duty end — it trades some of the breathability of a palm-coated glove for complete hand coverage.
How are nitrile coated gloves made? In simple terms, a fabric liner — knitted or jersey — is dipped into liquid nitrile rubber, which then cures into a flexible, textured coating bonded to the fabric underneath. For a full-coated glove, that dip covers the entire hand rather than stopping at the palm, which is what gives the glove its full protective barrier. This is why full-coated nitrile gloves are sometimes called nitrile dipped gloves or fully dipped hand gloves in the industry.
Why Coat the Whole Glove and Not Just the Palm?
This is the natural follow-up question once someone's compared full-coated against Delight's palm-coated range, so it's worth answering directly.
A palm-coated glove leaves the back of the hand open-knit — great for airflow on long shifts, but it means the back of the hand has zero coating protection. If your hands are only gripping and handling dry-to-lightly-oily parts, that's a fine trade-off.
But some jobs don't work that way. If hands are dipping into oil, handling wet components, or brushing against rough or greasy surfaces from every angle — not just where the palm makes contact — an uncoated back-of-hand becomes the weak point. Full nitrile coating removes that gap. You lose some breathability compared to a palm-coated glove, but you gain protection across the whole hand, which matters more for tasks where exposure isn't limited to the palm side.
As a rough rule: if your hand only ever touches material with the palm, palm-coated is usually enough and more comfortable for long shifts. If the back of the hand is exposed too — dipping, splashing, handling from multiple angles — full-coated is the safer call.
Nitrile vs PU vs Latex Coating: A Quick Refresher
We cover this in more depth in our palm coated gloves guide, but the short version applies here too — the coating material is what actually determines how the glove performs, regardless of whether it's palm or full coated.
Coating | Grip in Dry Conditions | Grip in Oily/Wet Conditions | Abrasion Resistance | Typical Use Case |
Nitrile | Strong | Strong | High | General handling, metal parts, oil and light chemical exposure |
Strong | Moderate | Moderate | Precision assembly, electronics, fine parts handling | |
Strong | Weak (degrades with oil) | Moderate | Wet handling, agriculture — not ideal around petroleum-based oils |
Nitrile's the reason full-coated gloves in this category default to it rather than latex or PU — a coating that has to survive contact across the entire hand needs to hold up to oil and abrasion consistently, and nitrile is the material that does that most reliably.
Delight's Nitrile Full Coated Glove Range
As a full nitrile coated gloves manufacturer and supplier based in Bhiwadi, Rajasthan, we currently offer four nitrile full coated variants. Two are built on a seamless knitted liner, and two use a softer jersey base — worth knowing upfront, since that base material changes how the glove feels on the hand even though the coating principle is the same.
Delight MNF32-B — Nitrile Full Coated Black Gloves
A 13-gauge seamless knitted liner, fully dipped in black nitrile. This is the straightforward, no-frills full-coated option — full hand coverage, good resistance to abrasion, oil, and light chemicals, with an elastic knit wrist to keep dust and debris out. The black coating also hides grease staining better than a lighter color, which is why it tends to be the default pick for workshops and production floors where gloves get visibly dirty fast.
Key specs: Model MNF32-B · Coating: Black nitrile, full hand · Liner: 13-gauge seamless knit · Cuff: Elastic knit wrist · Sizes: M, L · Reusable: Yes
Available sizes: Medium (M), Large (L) 🔗 View full specifications — Delight MNF32-B →
Delight MNF34-WO — Orange Nitrile Coated Gloves
Same 13-gauge seamless knitted construction as the MNF32-B, but dipped in bright orange nitrile instead of black. The coating still delivers the same core resistance to abrasion, oil, and wear — the difference is visibility. On a floor where high-visibility hand protection actually matters (busy warehouses, low-light work areas, sites where quick visual identification of PPE compliance matters), the orange coating does double duty as both protection and a visibility cue.
Key specs: Model MNF34-WO · Coating: Orange nitrile, full hand · Liner: 13-gauge seamless knit (white) · Cuff: Elastic knit wrist · Sizes: M, L · Reusable: Yes
Available sizes: Medium (M), Large (L) 🔗 View full specifications — Delight MNF34-WO →
Delight MNFJ33-B — Nitrile Full Coated Blue Gloves
This one steps away from the knitted liner and uses a soft jersey fabric base instead, fully coated in blue nitrile. The jersey base is noticeably softer and more flexible against the skin than a knitted liner, which some workers prefer for comfort during longer full-coated wear. It still delivers the same resistance to oil, grease, abrasion, and light chemicals as our knitted-liner models, with an open/knit wrist for a comfortable, secure fit.
Key specs: Model MNFJ33-B · Coating: Blue nitrile, full hand · Base: Jersey fabric · Cuff: Open/knit wrist · Sizes: M, L · Reusable: Yes
Available sizes: Medium (M), Large (L) 🔗 View full specifications — Delight MNFJ33-B →
Delight MNFJ35-B — Full Nitrile Dipped Gloves with Canvas Cuff
The heavy-duty option in the range. Built on the same soft jersey base as the MNFJ33-B, but fully dipped in black nitrile and finished with a canvas cuff instead of a knit wrist. The canvas cuff extends coverage further up the wrist and forearm, which matters for tasks where splashes or contact aren't limited to the hand — dipping, pouring, or working with drums and containers where liquid can run down the wrist. This is the model to reach for when wrist protection matters as much as hand protection.
Key specs: Model MNFJ35-B · Coating: Black nitrile, full hand + wrist · Base: Jersey fabric · Cuff: Canvas cuff · Sizes: M, L · Reusable: Yes

Nitrile Full Coated Gloves Comparison Table
In short: MNF32-B and MNFJ35-B are both black, MNF34-WO is high-visibility orange, and MNFJ33-B is blue. MNF32-B and MNF34-WO share the same 13-gauge seamless knitted liner; MNFJ33-B and MNFJ35-B share a softer jersey fabric base. Three models (MNF32-B, MNF34-WO, MNFJ33-B) use a standard knit or elastic wrist, while MNFJ35-B adds a canvas cuff for extended wrist coverage. All four are full hand coated, reusable, and available in Medium and Large.

Nitrile Gloves Price: What Affects It?
Same as with our palm-coated range, we don't publish a fixed rate card for full-coated nitrile gloves. Price depends on the base material (knitted liner vs jersey), coating thickness, and your order quantity — a trial order of a few dozen pairs and a wholesale order of several thousand simply don't land on the same price point. If you're comparing a nitrile gloves price list across suppliers, it's worth asking each one whether the quote covers GST and freight, whether they can issue a proper GST invoice, and what the minimum order quantity (MOQ) is for that rate. Share your requirement with us and we'll get back with pricing suited to your order size — whether that's a small trial MOQ for a single site or a bulk nitrile gloves order for PAN India distribution or export.
How Do I Choose the Right Nitrile Full Coated Glove?
A few questions usually get you to the right model fast:
Does exposure stay on the palm side, or does it wrap around the whole hand? If it's genuinely all-around — dipping, splashing, handling wet or greasy parts from multiple angles — full-coated is the right category. Within that, MNF32-B and MNFJ33-B cover general full-hand exposure.
Do you need wrist coverage too? If liquid or contact regularly runs past the hand and onto the wrist — pouring, dipping into drums, handling containers — the MNFJ35-B's canvas cuff is built for exactly that.
Do you prefer a knitted liner or a softer jersey base? This comes down to feel more than performance — the seamless knit (MNF32-B, MNF34-WO) tends to feel slightly firmer, while the jersey base (MNFJ33-B, MNFJ35-B) feels softer against the skin. Both hold up the same way against oil and abrasion.
Does visibility matter on your floor? If your PPE program benefits from gloves being visually identifiable at a distance, the MNF34-WO's orange coating serves that purpose without sacrificing any of the protection.
How dirty does the work get? Black coatings (MNF32-B, MNFJ35-B) show less visible staining over a shift than lighter colors — a small but real practical factor on floors where gloves get grimy fast.
Which Industries Use Nitrile Full Coated Gloves?
Full hand coverage tends to matter most wherever hands are exposed to liquids or rough material from more than one side:
Oil and lubricant handling — where hands are regularly submerged or in contact with oil across the whole hand, not just the palm.
Chemical drum handling and general maintenance — tasks involving pouring, dipping, or wiping down equipment where splashes aren't predictable.
Automotive servicing and machine maintenance — greasy components and parts that get handled from every angle during disassembly and cleaning.
Manufacturing environments with wet or oily processes — anywhere a palm-coated glove would leave the back of the hand exposed to the same conditions the palm is dealing with.
General industrial handling where full protection matters more than maximum breathability — a straightforward trade-off some floors are happy to make for the added coverage.
Across India, we supply full-coated nitrile gloves to buyers in industrial clusters spanning Rajasthan, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, and the NCR region — anywhere factories and workshops need reliable hand protection gloves at scale.
Nitrile Full Coated vs Nitrile Palm Coated: Which One Do You Need?
We get this question from both directions, so here's the direct comparison.
Nitrile palm coated gloves leave the back of the hand open-knit, which keeps the hand cooler and more breathable over an 8+ hour shift — the trade-off is that the back of the hand has no coating protection at all.
Nitrile full coated gloves cover the entire hand, which means more complete protection against liquids, splashes, oil, and abrasion no matter which part of the hand makes contact — at the cost of reduced airflow and slightly less flexibility than a palm-only glove.
If your team's exposure is mostly gripping and handling through the palm, palm-coated is usually the more comfortable choice for long shifts. If exposure genuinely wraps around the hand — dipping, splashing, or rough contact from multiple sides — full-coated is the one that actually protects you where you need it. If you're not sure which category your task falls into, describe the work to our team and we'll point you to the right glove.
Common Mistakes When Buying or Using Nitrile Full Coated Gloves
Choosing full-coated by default instead of matching it to the actual exposure. Full coating means less airflow. If your work is genuinely palm-only contact, a palm-coated glove will be more comfortable for the same protection level where it matters — save the full-coated option for tasks that need it.
Ignoring the base material difference. A seamless knitted liner and a jersey base feel different on the hand. If your team hasn't tried both, it's worth getting a few pairs of each before committing to a bulk order.
Skipping the cuff question. If liquid or splash exposure regularly reaches the wrist, a standard elastic-wrist glove (MNF32-B, MNF34-WO, MNFJ33-B) won't cover that — the canvas cuff on the MNFJ35-B exists specifically for this scenario.
Buying on price alone. A thinner nitrile coating wears through faster, which often ends up costing more over a few months of reordering than a slightly higher upfront price would have.
Not confirming sizing before a bulk order. Our full-coated range is currently available in Medium and Large only — confirm this fits your team's needs before placing a large order.
Care & Maintenance Tips
Cleaning: Hand wash with mild soap and lukewarm water. Harsh detergents break down the nitrile coating faster than normal wear does.
Drying: Air dry away from direct heat or sunlight — both can dry out and crack a full nitrile coating over time.
Storage: Store in a clean, dry place away from sharp objects that could puncture or snag the coating.
Inspection: Check the coating regularly for thinning, cracking, or peeling, especially at the fingertips and palm center — these are the first spots to wear on a full-coated glove.
Replacement: Once the coating shows visible wear at high-contact points, replace the pair rather than push it further — a compromised full coating defeats the point of choosing full coverage in the first place.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are nitrile full coated gloves used for?
They're used for tasks where hands are exposed to liquids, oil, grease, or abrasive contact across the entire hand — not just the palm — such as dipping, pouring, chemical handling, and general maintenance in wet or oily environments.
What's the difference between nitrile full coated and nitrile palm coated gloves?
Full coated gloves cover the entire hand for complete protection but reduce breathability. Palm coated gloves leave the back of the hand open-knit for better airflow but offer no coating protection on that part of the hand.
Which nitrile full coated glove has wrist protection?
The MNFJ35-B, with its canvas cuff, extends coverage past the hand and onto the wrist — useful for dipping, pouring, or drum-handling tasks where splash can reach the wrist.
Are nitrile full coated gloves reusable?
Yes, all four variants in our full-coated range are designed to be reusable. Hand washing with mild soap is recommended over harsh detergents, which wear down the coating faster.
What sizes are available in the nitrile full coated range?
Currently, all four variants — MNF32-B, MNF34-WO, MNFJ33-B, and MNFJ35-B — are available in Medium (M) and Large (L).
What's the difference between the knitted liner and jersey base models?
MNF32-B and MNF34-WO use a seamless 13-gauge knitted liner underneath the nitrile coating, while MNFJ33-B and MNFJ35-B use a softer jersey fabric base. Both hold up the same way against oil and abrasion — the difference is mainly in feel and flexibility.
What is the price of nitrile full coated gloves?
Price depends on the base material, coating grade, and order quantity, so we quote flexible pricing based on your requirement rather than a fixed rate. Share your quantity with our team for a current quote.

Yes, GST-compliant invoicing is available for orders. If freight or GST inclusion affects your budgeting, it's worth confirming this with our team upfront alongside your price quote.
How is nitrile coating different from a nitrile dipped glove?
They refer to the same process — "nitrile coated" and "nitrile dipped" are used interchangeably to describe a fabric glove liner that's been dipped in liquid nitrile rubber, which cures into the protective outer layer. A full coated or fully dipped glove means that layer covers the entire hand rather than just the palm.
