Disposable gloves are also measured in mils. When I bought a micrometer one of the first things I measured was a disposable glove and I was concerned that the measurement was really wrong. Then I searched online and found that the specified thickness is only on the finger pad area of the glove. Measuring there was dead on.

TIL. Thanks for sharing that, this is handy to know.

Pun intended?
