Gelatin #2 is a pliable, synthetic training gel that simulates muscle and fatty tissue with high clarity. Durable and reusable, it’s designed for ultrasound imaging and procedural training using a linear ultrasound probe.
Gelatin #2 – Medical Gel By The Pound
$42.98
Description
Made to mimic deeper tissue layers.
Gelatin #2 simulates fatty and muscular tissue with a balance of softness and durability. It’s ideal for phantoms, procedural skills, and ultrasound scanning around 2 cm beneath the surface.
This gel works well with a linear ultrasound probe, offering high visual contrast for imaging and clear feedback for needle insertion. It’s often used to simulate subcutaneous fat, muscle, and lung tissue.
Made from 100% synthetic material, Gelatin #2 is reusable, odorless, and stable at high temperatures. It’s easy to melt, remold, and is compatible with tan dye for visual structure differentiation.

FAQs
- What makes Gelatin #2 different from Gelatin #1?
Gelatin #2 is softer than Gelatin #1, making it better for simulating deeper, fattier tissues. It’s still durable and reusable, with a realistic response to procedural tools. - Can I use this with a linear ultrasound probe?
Yes. This gel offers excellent imaging clarity with linear probes, especially for structures around 2 cm deep, like muscle or fat layers. - Can I mix this with tan dye?
Yes. The clear formulation makes it compatible with tan dye and other pigment options for visual layering or structure identification. - How do I remelt and reuse it?
Each order includes melting instructions. Do not exceed 250°F (121°C), and always allow gel to cool before handling. - Does it rot or expire over time?
No. It is fully synthetic and does not mold, rot, or degrade when stored properly.
