About 5014903-Box New Image 2-piece Precut Convex Flextend (extended Wear) Skin Barrier 7/8
What is 5014903-Box New Image 2-piece Precut Convex Flextend (extended Wear) Skin Barrier 7/8?
This is a two-piece ostomy skin barrier from the New Image system, precut to a 7/8 inch stoma opening and built on a 1-3/4 inch flange. It combines a built-in convex shape with Flextend extended-wear barrier material, a floating flange, and a tape border, giving wearers a secure foundation that pairs with a separate New Image pouch.
Key features
- Precut 7/8 inch opening — eliminates the need for trimming or template work before application.
- 1-3/4 inch flange — green color-coded coupling that snaps to any matching New Image pouch.
- Built-in convexity — gentle outward curve presses around the stoma to help recessed or flush stomas protrude into the pouch.
- Flextend barrier — extended-wear skin barrier formulation designed to hold up against moisture, perspiration, and longer wear times.
- Floating flange — lets you attach the pouch without pressing down on the abdomen, which is easier on tender skin and post-surgical areas.
- Tape border — perimeter tape collar adds adhesion and a smoother edge under clothing.
- Two-piece design — change the pouch without removing the barrier, reducing skin trauma between full changes.
Who is 5014903-Box New Image 2-piece Precut Convex Flextend (extended Wear) Skin Barrier 7/8 for?
This barrier is intended for ostomates whose stoma measures 7/8 inch and who benefit from convexity, typically those with a flat, retracted, or flush stoma that tends to leak around the edges. It suits both new users who appreciate a precut opening and experienced wearers who want the security of extended-wear adhesive with the convenience of swapping pouches midweek. Use it at home, at work, or while traveling whenever a flat barrier has not provided a reliable seal.
How does 5014903-Box New Image 2-piece Precut Convex Flextend (extended Wear) Skin Barrier 7/8 compare?
Compared with one-piece systems, this two-piece setup lets you change the pouch independently of the wafer, which is gentler on peristomal skin over the course of a week. Versus flat or cut-to-fit barriers, the built-in convexity and tape border deliver a more reliable seal for difficult stoma profiles, while the Flextend material is formulated for longer wear than standard barriers aimed at short-term or postoperative use.
Best use cases
- →Post-surgery stoma protection during early healing
- →Active outdoor activities where barrier durability matters
- →Long-duration wear for work shifts exceeding 24 hours
Is New Image 2-piece Precut Convex Flextend (extended Wear) Skin Barrier 7/8 right for you?
The 5014903-Box Convex Flextend Skin Barrier 7/8 is best for adults with a mature stoma who need a durable, low-profile seal. No special training is required; the precut pieces can be applied by the wearer or a caregiver in minutes. If you need a smaller or larger size, consider standard flat barriers or custom-cut options. For those who change pouches daily, a conventional barrier may be sufficient, but the Flextend’s extended-wear polymer offers fewer changes and greater comfort.
How it compares: Compared with flat skin barriers, the convex Flextend shape reduces edge pressure and improves seal reliability. Unlike single-piece kits, the two-piece design simplifies removal and replacement, while its extended-wear polymer lasts longer than many standard barriers that need daily changes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size does the barrier fit?
▾
The Convex Flextend Skin Barrier is sized for a 7/8-inch stoma opening, which corresponds to the standard 22-mm diameter used in most adult ostomy appliances. The flange measures 1-3/4 inch, providing enough surface area to create a secure seal without excess bulk.
Does the barrier work with all pouch systems?
▾
Yes, the barrier is compatible with the majority of pouch systems on the market because it adheres to the skin rather than to the pouch itself. It works with both drainable and closed-type pouches, and can be paired with standard adhesive strips or the included tape border for added security.
How long can the barrier be worn?
▾
The extended-wear polymer is formulated to stay adhesive for up to five days under normal conditions, though wear time may vary with activity level, moisture, and skin health. Users typically replace the barrier every three to five days to maintain optimal protection and comfort.
Is the barrier suitable for sensitive skin?
▾
The barrier’s material is hypoallergenic and designed to be gentle on delicate peristomal skin. Its convex shape distributes pressure evenly, reducing the likelihood of irritation. However, individuals with extreme skin sensitivities should test a small area first or consult a wound-care professional before full application.
Can the barrier be trimmed for a custom fit?
▾
The barrier can be trimmed with clean scissors to accommodate slight variations in stoma size or to remove excess material. Cutting should be done carefully along the marked lines, and any removed sections must be discarded. After trimming, the remaining piece retains its adhesive properties and continues to provide a secure seal.
