Safety and efficiency for asbestos removal.

Features of the glove bag for 18-inch horizontal pipe:

The disposable glove bag for asbestos stands out with its generous dimensions of 66 x 84 inches, offering full coverage of the work area. Each bag is arranged in a continuous roll inside the box, allowing custom cuts based on site requirements. Ergonomic glove sleeves support safe and precise handling, while the lower chamber of the bag collects debris before dismantling. The bag maintains its seal even after perforation, provided it is properly taped.

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.

Installing the disposable glove bag for asbestos removal:

To install the glove bag on a horizontal pipe, position it around the section to be treated without overstretching. Once in place, the bag should fully cover the pipe segment requiring abatement. Create an opening in the bag to insert the nozzle of the wetting agent sprayer, and seal it immediately with tape to maintain airtightness. Allow extra length when cutting the bag to facilitate tool handling and ensure complete coverage.

Maintaining and disposing of the glove bag after use:

After use, the disposable glove bag must be handled carefully to prevent the spread of asbestos fibers. Seal the opening tightly with tape and place the bag in a labeled asbestos waste bag or wrap it in polyethylene film that complies with decontamination standards. This process ensures safe disposal of contaminated materials and aligns with industry regulations.

Usage tips for effective asbestos removal with a glove bag:

When removing asbestos insulation, saturate the material with a wetting agent to reduce dust formation. The disposable glove bag allows this procedure to be performed safely. Avoid overstretching the bag during installation to preserve maneuverability. Always wear personal protective equipment that meets current safety standards and follow established asbestos abatement protocols.
