MED 5570U

Single-Coated Film

MED 5570U is a single-coated, soft, pliable, transparent polyurethane film with a solventless acrylic adhesive. This product's thin and 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.


Typical Application
