Product Description
What this product is and who it is for
ConvaTec’s Eakin Cohesive Seal (Small, REF 839002) is a mouldable ostomy barrier ring that fits around a stoma to help create a seal and protect skin. It is intended for people using ostomy pouches who need a soft, absorbent filler to reduce leakage at the pouch edge and to protect irritated or uneven skin.
Specifications
- Product variant: Eakin Cohesive Seal, Small (2" / 48 mm outer diameter).
- Manufacturer reference: REF 839002.
- Thickness: 4.2 mm (1/6").
- Construction: pectin-based cohesive material that absorbs and forms a protective gel when in contact with moisture.
- Nominal starter hole size (before stretching/cutting): 18 mm (manufacturer specification).
What is included
- - Box quantity: commonly supplied as 20 seals per box (manufacturer ordering listings show 20/box).
- - Individual units are ring-shaped single-use seals; they are not sterile and are intended for single-patient single-use as per manufacturer guidance.
Condition and packaging
- - New, factory-manufactured product sold in manufacturer packaging when purchased as new stock. The supplied photograph shows the product shape and color only; packaging is not visible in the provided images.
- - Some distributor documentation and manufacturer channels list box quantities as 20; a conflict exists in other brand pages (see warnings).
Usage notes
- - Mould, stretch, cut or rejoin pieces to fit around varying stoma shapes; manufacturer instructions illustrate shaping technique.
- - The seal absorbs moisture and may transform to a gel over time (this is expected behaviour described by the manufacturer).
- - Follow the included manufacturer Instructions for Use for cleaning, application technique and disposal.
Limitations and who this is NOT suitable for
- - Not a sterile device.
- - Not a replacement for a skin barrier or baseplate — intended as an accessory to improve the pouch seal.
- - Users with questions about compatibility with a specific wafer/flange should consult a clinician or manufacturer guidance.
Warnings
- - Manufacturer listings disagree on packaging quantity in some places (20/box is the primary manufacturer ordering listing; alternate counts appear on a secondary brand site). Confirm box count with the seller before purchase if box quantity matters.
- - Do not assume the image shows packaging or the exact lot; the photograph supplied shows a single ring only.
