The Flexikold Medium Gel Pack is a professional-grade cooling tool optimized for flexibility. It is built with a proprietary gel blend that stays soft even at sub-zero temperatures, which is a significant advantage when trying to wrap a pack around a moving joint like an ankle or elbow. The 7.5 x 11.5 inch dimensions provide ample coverage for most muscle groups without being overly bulky in the freezer.
The exterior casing uses a nylon and polyethylene laminate, which offers higher puncture resistance than standard thin plastic films. This makes it a reliable choice for families where the pack might be handled frequently. Because the material is designed for maximum cold transfer, it may produce condensation in humid environments; placing it inside a thin pillowcase or using a paper towel barrier can help manage moisture.
Key Usability Tips:
- Store the pack flat to prevent stress on the corners and edges.
- Avoid folding the pack while it is in its most frozen state to keep the outer skin intact.
- The slim profile allows it to be tucked easily under a standard compression bandage.
Specifications show this unit is designed to stay in the therapeutic temperature range for approximately 22 minutes. The lack of a built-in fabric backing means the cold is more intense, which is often preferred for acute management immediately following an activity.
For a variety of sizes to fit different family members, the Allsett Health Variety Pack offers seven different shapes in one set.
