Flange size is a critical specification because it determines compatibility with pouches and the security of the wafer-pouch connection. The best flange size depends on your stoma size and the pouch system you use. White Durahesive Flexible Wafers come in several flange sizes, such as 1-1/2", 1-3/4", 2-1/4", and 2-3/4". Products like Convatec 413161 (1-3/4" flange) and Convatec 413160 (1-1/2" flange) ensure a snug fit for smaller stomas, while Convatec 413163 (2-3/4" flange) suits larger stomas or pouches. The variety of flange sizes available means users can easily find a compatible and secure option for their ostomy system.
