MED 5712P

Single-Coated Nonwoven

MED 5712P is a single-coated, tan spunlace nonwoven with a porous acrylic adhesive. This product’s unique construction results in a high MVTR, allowing air and moisture to pass freely through the breathable adhesive and nonwoven carrier, which can support extended wear and reduce the likelihood of skin maceration in some applications.


Typical Application

Designed for TENS electrodes and other devices where good skin adhesion, comfort and breathability are desired.
