SPLINT        CAST        BRACE        CATHETER
¢º Casting Tape
Casting Tape hardens by water contact, and is the orthopaedic fixed adhesive tape to make broken bones naturally synthesize and cured and to protect a damaged muscle by swathing a fracture and luxation region in it in the shape you want. It is made from 100%polyester and indurative resin, especially useful for the construction of most common orthopedic casts, support cast and weight-bearing cast.
It is 1/5 of the weight of plaster bandages and 15% lighter than fiberglass casts though it has strength of the level of the existing fiberglass products (twenty times stronger than plaster paris bandages).
Also, it is superior to fiberglass casts in plasticness, mouldability, safety, and durability.
It has excellent X-Ray radiolucency and is easy to remove the cast after use. Conventional cast saw or shears could be used for remove of the cast.
It produces significantly less dust than fibreglass products during removal, and environmental pollution and waste problem are minimized by using eco-friendly products.
