At 8.5\" × 12\" — nearly twice the size of the standard HALO Seal — the XL is designed for blast injuries, shrapnel wounds with multiple entry points, and wounds with irregular margins that extend beyond the radius of a standard seal. The HALO XL is also specifically indicated for securing gauze packing within wounds and covering surgical incisions post-thoracostomy, giving it dual utility in both initial and extended trauma care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 16px;font-size:15px;\"\u003eThe HALO XL uses the same proven dual-layer adhesive system as the standard HALO Seal: scrim-reinforced HALO Gel hydrogel (preventing gel migration in high heat) combined with an outer tape edge that maintains bond strength in both freezing and high-temperature environments. The operating range of -30°F to 140°F covers the full spectrum of military and tactical deployment environments. The packaging includes a re-closable zipper lock at the top of the pouch in addition to the standard 4-corner tear notches, allowing partial opening for inspection or staged access.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 32px;font-size:15px;\"\u003eThe HALO XL is non-vented — when applied to penetrating chest wounds, the standard monitoring protocol for tension pneumothorax applies, with readiness to burp the seal if tension develops. Its primary battlefield role is in high-energy trauma (explosive blast, multi-fragment wounds) where standard seals provide insufficient coverage. For standard penetrating chest wounds, the HALO Seal, HALO Vent, or HALO Combo packs are the standard tools.
