Is this waterproof if swimming? Any leaking? I am hoping to seal a peritoneal dialysis catheter for swimming.

I have an Ileostomy and I swim all the time without any problem. No leaking and I shower with this pouch on also. My wear time with no leaks is a week. Hot tubs are ok but not for very long.

Well the specs do call for water sealing, however, I find teflon tape is a better way to go unless the threads have been cross threaded. Good luck.

Doing further research on the light it does mention that it is waterproof and skid proof but examining my light itself here is what I can say. There are thin rubber seals like those found in waterproof watches in the tail cap and the bulb cap. I can't say how well it stands up in real conditions but I have run it under the faucet and no water leaked through the tail or bulb cap. The telescoping part is the only concern I have if using it under long periods of time in rain

You can use waterproof shrink tubing to seal the connection. However that type of shrink tubing is expensive. The waterproof version is thickerand lined with submersible grade adhesive.

I use this in the pool with no problem. Very watertight. The instructions will have you test the case and submerge in water so if your phone, and case, pass that test, you are good to go! I do not submerge mine, but I would not be afraid if it dropped in the water.

I have used this bladder for just about everything and i have never had it leak on me, so I wouldnt be worried about it as long as the outside of the bladder is dry when you put it in

I swim in saline pool and have no problem. I soak in fresh water after each use, per instructions and no issues. Would imagine same would be for ocean swimming.

I use it for the same thing. I've only had it a few month. No leakage as of yet. Hope this helps. It works great on the back because it's size.

That is what I mostly use it for and it works great. You will have to split it to remove it however. I like it much better than coax seal but it is probably not capable of water immersion.

Used it around the tub and tile on the shower. It is water repellent, in that the water beads on. No leaks that I am aware of. Also used to seal cracks on the back porch sun slots made of plastic and it keeps the water out. Hope this helps.

I would strongly suggest NOT using this for underwater... It gets microscopic tears easily and leaks easily. Plus, if you plugged in earphones of any sort, you'd break the seal. Basically this is a thin rubbery sleeve you put on your phone and seal with a sticker... You can't charge it or use headphones with the sleeve. And after getting it and trying for Hawaii, I do not trust it... Too whimpy and easy leaks... I'd only use it to protect against splashes or sand at the beach. I'd never take it actually under water.

If the connection is tight it is suppose to be water proof. Our son has this same one and he does use it in the water.

Yes. it does have little holes and should not be used as a device to protect against water leaking onto something!

Dear Colin, Both cover seal made vy EVA resin. So I think it is leakproofed. Best regards Wataru Yonemura

Yes, this item is indeed waterproof as long as you make sure it has a tight seal. Thank you

I use mine for swimming laps occasionally and it is waterproof so far. I think the jarring from the fall into the water may be a problem, though.

There isn't a waterproof layer, you line it with a Tena or other brand of incontinence pad. Keeps the Tinkle Belt fresh. Hope this helps you! These Tinkle Belts have literally been life changers, I love them.
