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 15 (GL715) is a non-sterile, ultra-wide elastic mesh bandage specifically designed for very large or extra-extra-obese patients requiring maximum dressing coverage. Its tubular knit construction offers exceptional elasticity, conformability, and gentle, uniform compression, securing dressings, pads, and medical devices comfortably without the need for adhesives.
Constructed from a soft cotton and elastic fiber blend, the GL715 promotes breathability and skin comfort by reducing moisture buildup and irritation during extended wear.
