First Aid Only FAE-5010 Butterfly Closure Bandages 10/Box

Butterfly Wound Closures 10 Pack

These First Aid Only butterfly closures come in a box of 10 sterile strips sized 3/8'' by 1 3/4''. They are designed for anyone who needs to close minor cuts or incisions without stitches. The flexible fabric stretches with movement and the waterproof material stays in place during daily activity. Suitable for all ages and latex free.

Refill For SmartCompliance Cabinets

The perforated dispenser box measures 4.25'' x 1.88'' x 1.5'' and snaps directly into SmartCompliance first aid cabinets. It replaces loose or depleted butterfly strips in an existing kit. The upgrade is worth it when a current supply lacks individually sealed sterility or waterproof adhesion. Each strip holds skin edges together without sticking to the wound itself.

Simple Application And Common Issues

Peel the sterile backing and apply the strip across the cleaned wound, pressing the ends down firmly. The strong adhesive secures the skin while the centre spans the cut. Problems arise if the skin is oily or wet before application, which reduces adhesion, or if the strip is stretched during placement, which can pull the wound edges apart.
