Our Avail™ glove bags for asbestos abatement from pipe are the number one choice of professional contractors around the world. The Avail™ system offers 15 standard styles of glove bags, each designed to meet government packaging specifications and provide safe, labor-saving performance for your application. Choose from patented extended-run glove bags for long, continuous pipe sections; single-use glove bags for repair and maintenance; vertical glove bags for risers; and special application bags for valves, ducts, and beams

Avail™ asbestos removal glove bags include exclusive design features which reduce labor. Fitted Collars allow you to quickly, easily, and securely attach the glove bag, eliminating traps and folds which cause leakage of hazardous materials. Pre-Cut Tops eliminate awkward measuring and cutting labor on the job. Entry Ports allow safe, fiber-tight attachment of the HEPA vacuum and water/encapsulant wand. FiberGuard Glovesleeves utilize a thermal glue bond to ensure an airtight seal at this critical point; they’re also precisely positioned to reduce worker fatigue. Latex Work Gloves are cotton-flock lined and extra large for worker comfort. These glove bags have large, conveniently placed Tool Pouches for easy access of tools. No Bottom Seam construction allows debris weight to collect on the bottom of the bag without fear of a leaking or bursting seam.

M6

Extra Packaging Corp. introduces the Avail M6 glove bag for repair and maintenance operations where the work involves a small section of insulation or gasket repair/replacement. The M6 design makes it safer and easier for workers to remove asbestos containing insulation from small sections of small-diameter pipe. The M6 glove bags replace the popular Avail 2230 one-arm repair and maintenance bag. Improvements over the 2230 include a larger work/debris area, a pair of glovesleeves, pre-cut opening at the top, and attachment collars. The new M6 glovebag incorporates safety and labor saving features of the industry standard AVAIL glovebags. FiberGuard sealed glovesleeves, fitted collars, precut tops, no bottom seams and ultra-clear strong poly are just some of the features. The M6 dimensions are 22 inches by 60 inches with a 18 inch deep pre-cut opening at the top with collars to accommodate pipe diameters up to 6 inches, and a horizontal work area of 12 inches. The glovesleeves are set opposing each other on the bag, a significant improvement over the 2230 one-arm bag. Now the worker can easily manipulate tools inside the bag with both hands, and perform maintenance and repair activities with ease.
