Skintact ECG Electrode F-55

Skintact® ECG Electrode F-55 Disposable | Trusted Supplier — JP Biochem Botswana

The Skintact ECG electrode F-55 is a large-format, high-performance disposable pre-gelled ECG electrode from Leonhard Lang GmbH, Austria — designed for clinical applications requiring a larger electrode footprint and enhanced skin coverage, including stress testing, Holter monitoring, and long-duration diagnostic ECG recording. Carrying product code 58018, the F-55 distinguishes itself from the F-301 and F-401 with its larger 55 mm diameter, Aqua-Wet liquid gel, and integrated PUR-foam sponge construction.

Large 55mm Format — Maximum Skin Contact & Adhesion

With a diameter of 55 mm and a total electrode area of 23.8 cm², the F-55 is the largest electrode in the Skintact range reviewed here — providing the broadest possible skin contact area for applications where electrode stability over extended periods is critical. The adhesive area of 19.8 cm² delivers secure, long-duration adhesion even during patient movement, making it an excellent choice for exercise stress ECG and ambulatory monitoring scenarios.

Aqua-Wet Liquid Gel with PUR-Foam Sponge — Optimised for Long-Duration Monitoring

Unlike the F-301 and F-401 which use Aqua-Tac solid adhesive gel, the F-55 uses Aqua-Wet liquid gel — a formulation specifically suited to applications requiring sustained skin hydration and consistent electrical contact over longer monitoring periods. The PUR-foam sponge layer holds the liquid gel in contact with the skin throughout the monitoring session, maintaining signal quality as time progresses.

Ag/AgCl Sensor — Full AAMI Compliance

The F-55 features an Ag/AgCl coated ABS sensor on a PE-foam backing with medical-grade acrylate adhesive. All six AAMI electrical performance criteria pass: DC-Offset ≤100 mV, Recovery Slope ±1 mV/sec, AC-Impedance ≤2000 Ω at 10 Hz, Internal Noise ≤150 µV, and Bias-Tolerance ≤100 mV — confirming clinical-grade signal quality across the full electrode surface.

PVC-Free, Latex-Free, Phthalates-Free — No REACH Candidate Substances

The F-55 is fully PVC-free, phthalates-free, and not made with natural rubber latex. Notably, no REACH candidate list substances are present (listed as "n.a.") — a clean material profile that makes it suitable for the most sensitive patients. It complies with the RoHS Directive and REACH Regulation and is ISO 10993-1 biocompatibility tested and passed.

24-Month Shelf Life — 1,200 Pieces per Box

Stored unopened between +5°C and +30°C, the F-55 has a 24-month shelf life, with 30 electrodes per pouch and 1,200 per box. Lot number and expiration date are printed on every pouch and box for full traceability.
