MED 3046

Double-Coated Film

MED 3046 is a double-coated, conformable, transparent polyurethane film with an acrylic-based adhesive on both sides. This product is designed to adhere to polyester (PET) nonwoven material on one side and rigid wearable devices on the other side. It has a heavy-weight liner, allowing for greater flexibility in product design and converting processes.


Typical Application

Designed for mounting medical devices to the skin for sustained periods of wear, up to 21 days
