Description
The MultiStim Electrodes are Richmar’s premium self-adhesive stimulation electrodes, built with a proprietary bonding process and moisture barrier that keep them performing through repeated use. Six cloth and foam configurations cover the standard shapes clinics reach for, from the 1.5 x 3.5 inch rectangle to the 2 inch round.
- Proprietary Bonding Process – a unique bonding method and moisture barrier give the electrodes high tensile strength and keep them from breaking down in use.
- No Delamination with Moist Heat – the construction resists delamination, even when used alongside moist heat packs.
- Premium Gel – the gel is formulated for maximum resistance to drying out, holding optimum current distribution across the full surface.
- Cloth or Foam – choose the backing that fits the treatment area and the patient’s skin.
Premium Stimulation Electrodes for Daily Clinic Use
Electrodes are a small line item that can quietly wreck a treatment when they dry out, curl, or deliver uneven current. This line is engineered against those failures, starting with a bonding process that keeps the layers together under the stress of removal and reapplication. The moisture barrier matters most in clinics that pair stimulation with moist heat, where lesser electrodes soften and separate. A gel chosen for dry-out resistance keeps current distribution even, which patients feel as comfortable, consistent stimulation. For clinics standardizing on one premium electrode across therapists, the six-shape range covers the placements used every day.
Features and Benefits
Construction
- Bonding and Moisture Barrier – the proprietary process produces high tensile strength and protects the electrode’s internal layers during use.
- Delamination Resistance – the electrodes are built to resist delamination, including use with moist heat packs.
Performance
- Optimum Current Distribution – the premium gel spreads current across the electrode surface for consistent stimulation.
- Dry-Out Resistance – the gel formulation maximizes the working life of each electrode before performance fades.

Why Therapists Standardize on One Premium Electrode
Every failed electrode costs a few minutes of treatment time and a small piece of patient confidence. Electrodes that resist drying, curling, and delamination fail less often, which keeps sessions on track. Standardizing on one line also simplifies the supply shelf: six shapes, one gel, one behavior to learn.
- Fewer Mid-Session Failures – bonding and gel quality keep electrodes working through the treatment instead of peeling or fading.
- Comfortable, Even Stimulation – optimum current distribution avoids the hot spots patients complain about.
- Moist-Heat Compatible – the construction holds together where stimulation is paired with hot packs.
- One Line to Stock – cloth and foam in the three standard shapes cover the clinic’s daily placements.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is different about the MultiStim construction?
A proprietary bonding process and moisture barrier give the electrodes high tensile strength and resistance to delamination, even with moist heat packs.
Which backing should I choose, cloth or foam?
Both backings use the same premium gel. Cloth flexes over curved areas, while foam gives a firmer pad, and clinics often stock both for different placements.
How are they packaged?
They pack 4 per pack, 10 packs per bag, and 1 bag per case, and they are sold by the case.
Do the electrodes resist drying out?
Yes. The gel is formulated for maximum dry-out resistance, which supports optimum current distribution over the electrode’s working life.
What shapes are available?
Six configurations: a 1.5 x 3.5 inch cloth rectangle, a 2 inch foam round, 2 x 2 inch squares in cloth and foam, and 2 x 3.5 inch rectangles in cloth and foam.
