Esmark LF offers maximum and consistent pressure to extremities for exsanguination prior to surgery. Its elastomeric properties make it the ideal choice for use in the surgical environment - especially during joint replacement procedures. Made of a unique latex-free poly-isopropolene compound, Esmark LF is less abrasive because it eliminates all natural rubber proteins and fatty acids normally associated with latex Esmark bandages. It also delivers maximum protection for latex-sensitive patients and health professionals. Esmark LF provides consistent 400% elongation for ideal compression and ease of application.
