Technical features of the glove bag for horizontal pipe:

This disposable glove bag stands out for its generous dimensions of 44 x 60 inches, its increased resistance thanks to a thickness of 6 mils, and its compatibility with small diameter horizontal pipes. It is designed to contain asbestos insulation residues, reduce dust dispersion and facilitate debris containment. Its transparency allows good visibility during intervention, and its flexibility ensures easy installation around the pipe.

According to the industry, one must also dispose of the glove bag by inserting it in a bag for asbestos (SAC3350) or polyethylene tarp (SACCT3) identified for asbestos.

Installation of the glove bag for asbestos removal:

To install the glove bag, simply wrap it around the horizontal pipe, making sure to fully cover the work area. An opening can be made to insert the nozzle of the wetting agent sprayer, which will saturate the insulation and limit dust formation. It is essential to seal this opening with adhesive tape to preserve the bag’s tightness. Once the intervention is complete, the bag must be hermetically sealed and placed in a labeled asbestos waste bag for disposal.

Maintenance and handling of the disposable glove bag:

Although disposable, the glove bag for asbestos removal requires careful handling. After use, it must be immediately sealed and disposed of in accordance with current regulations for asbestos-containing waste. It is recommended to check the integrity of the bag before each use and to store it in a dry place away from direct light. Good preventive maintenance ensures optimal performance and enhanced safety.

Usage tips for the decontamination glove bag:

Use this glove bag in a controlled environment, with appropriate personal protective equipment. Make sure the bag fully covers the area to be treated without being stretched. When perforating for the wetting agent, proceed carefully to avoid any leakage. After removing the insulation, quickly close the opening and dispose of the bag in a container intended for asbestos waste. Following these guidelines ensures a safe and compliant intervention.
