MED 1827A

Single-Coated Film

MED 1827A is a single-coated, soft, pliable, transparent polyurethane film with an acrylic adhesive. This product’s conformable film offers a high degree of user comfort, while its transparency allows for wound or site visibility; in some applications, it can act as a barrier to assist in decreasing the risk of bacterial infections. The adhesive is protected by a one-side siliconized glassine paper liner.


Typical Application

Designed for incise applications, wound care, IV securement and situations requiring good MVTR and sustained periods of wear.
