Dukal 8155DB - Cohesive Bandage, 1.5" x 5 yd, Dark Blue, Non-Sterile, 1/PK, 48 PK/BX (Cross reference to 3M Coban)

The Dukal 8155DB Cohesive Bandage is a premium self-adhering wrap designed to provide secure compression and support without the need for clips, pins, or adhesives. Measuring 1.5 inches wide and 5 yards long, this non-sterile bandage adheres to itself while remaining gentle on skin and hair. Its dark blue color provides high visibility and easy identification in both clinical and athletic settings. Comparable in quality and performance to 3M Coban wraps, it delivers dependable elasticity and controlled compression.

Key Benefits

The cohesive design allows the bandage to stick only to itself, ensuring a comfortable, non-slip fit without pulling on skin or hair. It offers consistent compression to reduce swelling and support soft tissue injuries, while maintaining flexibility for unrestricted movement. The lightweight, breathable construction promotes patient comfort during extended wear. Each roll is individually wrapped for hygiene, and the non-sterile format makes it ideal for general use, splinting, or securing dressings.

Compatibility and Applications

This bandage is suitable for a wide variety of healthcare, veterinary, sports, and first aid applications. It is commonly used for securing dressings, compression therapy, sprain support, or as part of athletic taping routines. The cohesive wrap is compatible with most skin types and wound dressings, and its elasticity allows application to joints, limbs, and contoured areas. It is frequently used in hospitals, clinics, physical therapy centers, and athletic training facilities.

Usage Guidelines

Unroll the desired length and apply with gentle, even tension to the affected area, overlapping each layer by about half its width. Avoid excessive stretching to prevent constriction. The wrap will adhere to itself without additional tape or clips. Replace when soiled, wet, or if compression decreases. Dispose of after single patient use. Store in a cool, dry place to maintain adhesive performance.

Certifications, Safety Standards, and Regulatory Approvals

The Dukal 8155DB Cohesive Bandage is manufactured under strict quality assurance standards to ensure consistent performance and safety. It meets general medical device compliance requirements and is designed for use in professional healthcare environments. Always refer to the packaging for specific regulatory information and compliance marks as applicable to regional requirements.

Comparison with Competitor Products

Comparable to 3M Coban cohesive bandages, the Dukal 8155DB offers similar stretch, adhesion, and comfort at a more cost-effective price point. Unlike traditional elastic or adhesive wraps, it does not require clips or adhesives, reducing waste and simplifying application. Its dark blue color provides a professional appearance and easy visibility during clinical use, distinguishing it from generic alternatives. The strong self-adhesion and tear by hand convenience make it a preferred choice among healthcare professionals and athletic trainers.

Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios

Common users include nurses, sports medicine practitioners, physical therapists, veterinarians, and first responders. It is suitable for patients requiring compression for sprains, swelling reduction, or secure dressing fixation. The cohesive bandage is also widely used in athletic settings for support taping and in postoperative care for gentle compression and protection of wound sites.

Best Practices for Use and Maintenance

Store at room temperature in a dry environment to maintain cohesive integrity. Apply only the necessary tension to achieve support without restricting blood flow. Do not reuse once removed. Dispose of in accordance with healthcare facility waste disposal guidelines. Ensure that the wrap is not applied directly to open wounds without an appropriate dressing layer beneath.

Regulatory and Safety Information

This product is for external use only and should be applied under the supervision of a healthcare professional when used for therapeutic compression. Do not apply too tightly as it may impair circulation. Use with caution on patients with impaired blood flow or fragile skin. Check the product packaging for lot number, expiration date, and compliance details before use.
