Surgilast is a tubular stretch net made of high quality material and is knitted in a continuous seamless band. Strong and highly elastic, Surgilast stretches well beyond its relaxed length and diameter and applies gentle pressure to keep bandages securely in place. Available in a broad range of sizes and easily customized, Surgilast can accommodate a wide variety of bandaging and support needs.
Unlike competing elastic net brands, Surgilast has a strong, yet yielding, elasticity. Surgilast's skin contact surface is smooth, not loopy like most other brands, offering greater patient comfort.

The Surgilast Tubular Elastic Bandage Retainer – Size 14 (GL714) is a non-sterile, extra-wide elastic mesh bandage designed specifically for patients requiring maximum coverage, such as extra-obese individuals. Its tubular knit construction offers excellent stretch, conformability, and gentle compression to securely hold dressings, pads, and medical devices without the need for adhesives.
Made from a soft cotton and elastic fiber blend, the GL714 promotes skin breathability and comfort, reducing moisture buildup and irritation during extended use. The 15-yard roll can be easily cut to the desired length and resists unraveling, making it suitable for both clinical and home healthcare applications.
