Compression Snake Bite Bandage with TraumaFix Closure 10cm x 4.5m

The Compression Snake Bite Bandage with TraumaFix Closure delivers the firm, even pressure needed for pressure immobilisation, the recommended first aid response to venomous snake bites in Australia.

The TraumaFix closure secures the bandage without clips or pins, reducing the risk of pressure loss during transport. At 10cm x 4.5m, it provides enough length to wrap an adult limb, and the elastic non-slip weave holds consistent compression through movement.

What is the best bandage for snake bite?

Australian first aid guidance recommends a broad, firm elastic compression bandage applied with pressure immobilisation. This bandage is purpose-built for that protocol, with a high-tension weave and TraumaFix closure to keep pressure consistent until medical help arrives.

How long should a snake bite bandage be left on?

Keep the bandage in place and the patient still until medical professionals arrive and advise removal. Do not remove the bandage yourself, as releasing pressure can allow venom to move into the circulation.

Ideal for bushwalkers, outdoor workers, first responders, and anyone building a complete home or vehicle first aid kit.
