Applicators and Swabsticks

Applicators and swabsticks are small, single-use tools, typically a cotton or foam tip on a paper or plastic stick, used to apply antiseptics, clean a small wound area, or prep skin before a procedure. They're everyday essentials in clinics, hospitals, and labs, and are also handy for home first-aid tasks like applying ointment precisely without contaminating the rest of the container. Compare tip material, stick length, and whether sterile, individually wrapped units are needed.
