First Aid & Hygiene

Self-Adhesive Elastic Bandage Roll, 4.5 m

A stretchy, self-sticking wrap that holds dressings or supports a sprain
£0.99 + £5.65 delivery
Delivery is charged per product because each item ships directly from its supplier, so items can arrive separately. Estimated delivery 10-20 working days. Tracked.

A 4.5 metre by 5 cm roll of cohesive bandage that clings to itself rather than to skin or hair, so it is easy to apply and remove. It is useful for holding a dressing in place, light support of a sprained joint, or wrapping an injury while you wait for help.

It is not a tourniquet and not a substitute for a proper trauma dressing. Do not wrap tightly enough to restrict circulation.

Key features

  • 4.5 m long, 5 cm wide
  • Clings to itself, no clips or pins
  • Waterproof outer, tear by hand
  • Holds dressings or supports joints
  • Breathable and flexible
  • Light and compact

How to use it

Wrap this cohesive roll over a dressing or around a joint so it holds in place without clips, pins or tape.

  1. Wash your hands, and make sure any wound underneath already has a clean dressing on it.
  2. Start the roll below the area you are covering, with the end laid flat against the skin.
  3. Wrap in even turns, overlapping each layer by about half, with firm but gentle tension.
  4. Tear the bandage by hand when you have covered the area, and press the end firmly onto the layer below so it clings.
  5. Check fingers or toes beyond the bandage for warmth, colour and feeling, and loosen it if they change.
  6. Remove it by unwinding gently, as it clings to itself rather than skin or hair.
Tips
  • At 4.5 m by 5 cm it suits wrists, ankles and hands, and is awkward on larger limbs.
  • Keep one in the first aid kit and another in the car.
Safety and limits
  • It is not a tourniquet or a substitute for a trauma dressing. Do not wrap it tight enough to restrict circulation.
  • This does not replace first aid training or medical care. Call 999 for anything serious, or 111 for advice.
Please note
  • Do not wrap tightly enough to cut off circulation.
  • Not a tourniquet; seek medical help for serious injuries.
