Features and Benefits:
- High-Strength Fiberglass Construction: Made from a fiberglass material, this casting tape provides high tensile strength, ensuring durable support for fractured or injured limbs. The fiberglass construction offers rigidity and stability while remaining lightweight, minimizing patient discomfort.
- Advanced Water-Activated Polyurethane Resin: The tape is impregnated with a water-activated polyurethane resin that sets quickly upon exposure to water. This resin provides a secure and strong cast while allowing for sufficient working time to properly mold and shape the cast around the injured area.
- Lightweight and Comfortable: Unlike traditional plaster casts, 3M™ Scotchcast™ Plus Casting Tape is significantly lighter, making it more comfortable for patients to wear over extended periods. Its lightweight nature also reduces the stress and strain on muscles and joints during the healing process.
- Blue Color for Discreet Appearance: The blue color of the casting tape offers a sleek and modern appearance, making it a popular choice for patients who prefer a more discreet and stylish look. It also helps to mask any dirt or stains, maintaining a cleaner appearance over time.
- Breathable and Water-Resistant: The open weave of the fiberglass material allows air to circulate, helping to keep the skin underneath cool and reducing the risk of moisture buildup and skin irritation. The water-resistant nature of the tape also means that it can withstand exposure to moisture, making it suitable for use in various environments.
- Easy to Apply and Remove: 3M™ Scotchcast™ Plus Casting Tape is designed for ease of use. It conforms easily to the contours of the body, ensuring a snug and secure fit. The tape is also easy to remove using standard cast removal tools, simplifying the process for healthcare providers.
