Two hands rubbing together while water droplets fall beside them
About the Handwashing Rubbing Hands black filled icon
Two open hands are drawn overlapping palm against palm in the classic scrubbing position, fingers extended and slightly splayed, while two teardrop shapes fall from above to suggest running water. The gesture communicates washing, lathering and personal hygiene without needing a tap or basin. Use it on clinic signage, restroom wayfinding, food safety posters, health app reminders and public health infographics.
Strokes are uniform and the two hands are offset just enough to keep each finger readable, with the droplets sized far smaller than the palms so they stay clearly secondary. It pairs well with soap, sanitizer and mask icons in the same hygiene set. Avoid sizes under 24 px, where the overlapping fingers begin to merge.
This is the solid black filled version of the handwashing rubbing hands icon: a bold silhouette that reads clearly at 16-24 px and on dark or busy backgrounds, and prints well in one colour.
It downloads free as an SVG vector or transparent PNG in seven sizes, and the free online editor lets you recolor it, apply gold, silver, neon and gradient styles, add animation, or convert it to EPS, PDF and DXF.
