2-1/4"H • 6 lbs. • Removable cover for laundering

About AliMed® T-Gel™: With typical cushions, excessive shear force leads to occlusion of blood flow, which is seen as one of the biggest contributing factors behind pressure injuries and discomfort. T-Gel is a soft, rubber-like elastomer gel that mimics fatty tissue and moves with the skin to minimize the effects of skin shearing and the risk of skin breakdown. Guaranteed not to leak or dry out if accidentally punctured or cut.
