MultiStick Hydrogel

All Axelgaard electrodes feature patented MultiStick® hydrogel. The formulation of the hydrogel top layer is optimized for bonding to the electrode to prevent delamination, and the bottom layer is specifically formulated for multiple applications to skin. Axelgaard’s controlled scrim placement provides consistent structural support. This multi-layer approach ensures the highest quality electrodes in the industry.

How to optimize the life of your re-usable electrodes

The durability of electrodes depends entirely on the application, storage, humidity and care by the user.

Application: Before each electrode’s application, skin must be cleaned with water and soap to remove any lotions, skin oils, make-up, and dead skin. Any debris on the skin will be transferred to the gel of the electrode’s thereby compromising the integrity of its adhesiveness. A clean surface is the most important factor in the number of applications per electrode.

Storage: After every use the electrode must be returned to the “ON” side of the liner and placed in the original, re-sealable package to prevent loss of moisture. The electrodes should be stored at room temperature. Do not store in freezer or refrigerator, leave in extreme heat, submerge in water or leave outside the package.

Care: After usage, if the electrode picks up small amounts of debris you may use a drop of water on your finger to gently rub the debris off the electrode. Do not use soap, alcohol, submerge in water or scrub with an abrasive material.

Pitting: Check for pitting in the hydrogel layer. Once the gel surface is pitted, electric current may sting the patient.
