Question Prefered chest seal

We currently use the Asheman chest seal, which I've never been a fan of.

What have your expericens been with the below products, which do you prefer?


W/ One way valves
Bolin Chest Seal NSN: 6510-01-549-0939
Asherman Chest Seal NSN: 6510-01-408-1920
Emergency Chest Seal (tqsresponce .com)

W/O one way valve
Wound Seal NSN: 6510-01-562-3346
Hyfin Chest Seal NSN: 6515-01-532-8019
H and H Wound Seal NSN: 6510-01-562-3346

Are their others? (other than field expediant)

In my experience the ashermans have been flimsy and never want to stick to anything. Played with a Bolin awhile back and liked it, we've ordered a few to test out.

Have not used the wound seal; but have used the Hyfin seals and was impressed with their stickyness.
