The SurgiTube Tubular Cotton Gauze – Model GL245 is a non‑sterile, latex‑free tubular bandage made from 100% cotton yarn, offered in a generous size 2″ × 50 yards (Size 5P). Engineered to be used without an applicator, this gauze features a heavier knit, allowing it to slip comfortably over head, shoulder, breast, or leg areas, securing dressings without adhesive tape.
Its seamless continuous knit eliminates fraying when cut, provides reliable retention and allows maximum airflow for skin comfort. The latex-free nylon structure is ideal for patients with sensitivities while meeting clinical requirements for securing medium to large dressing applications.
