3M Steri-Strip Adhesive Tape Skin Closures (Reinforced) - 1/2" x 4" - 6 strip envelope

3M Steri-Strip Adhesive Skin Closures (Reinforced) are sterile skin closure strips made of a porous, non-woven backing coated with a pressure-sensitive, hypoallergenic adhesive and reinforced with polyester filaments for added strength.

Steri-Strip skin closures are widely used in hospital A&E and theatre departments. Quick and easy to apply, they hold the edges of an incision or laceration together.
