The 3M™ Scotchcast™ Casting Tape (MMM-82103) is a high-quality orthopedic casting material designed for immobilization and support of fractures and other injuries. Measuring 3 inches wide by 4 yards long, this white casting tape provides excellent rigidity, durability, and patient comfort. It is widely used in hospitals, clinics, and medical practices due to its ease of application and reliable performance, ensuring effective immobilization while promoting optimal healing conditions.

Features and Benefits:

• Durable Fiberglass Material: Constructed from a durable fiberglass mesh, 3M™ Scotchcast™ Casting Tape provides strong and long-lasting support. This material offers the necessary rigidity to immobilize and stabilize fractures, sprains, and other musculoskeletal injuries, ensuring that the injured area remains properly aligned during the healing process.
• Water-Activated Polyurethane Resin: The tape is coated with a water-activated polyurethane resin that hardens quickly upon contact with water. This feature allows for a rapid setting time, enabling healthcare professionals to efficiently apply the cast and secure the injured area. The resin also provides a strong and durable finish, ensuring the cast remains intact throughout the recovery period.
• Lightweight and Comfortable: Unlike traditional plaster casts, 3M™ Scotchcast™ Casting Tape is significantly lighter, reducing the strain on the injured limb and enhancing patient comfort. The lightweight design allows for easier mobility and less fatigue, making it more convenient for patients to carry out daily activities.
• White Color for Clean Appearance: The white color of the casting tape provides a clean and professional appearance, making it ideal for medical settings. It also allows for easy customization, as patients and healthcare providers can decorate or write on the cast for identification or personalization.
• Breathable and Water-Resistant: The open weave of the fiberglass material allows for air circulation, which helps to reduce moisture buildup under the cast, preventing skin maceration and irritation. Additionally, the tape’s water-resistant properties make it suitable for environments where moisture exposure is a concern, maintaining the integrity of the cast even in humid conditions.
• Easy to Mold and Shape: The flexible nature of the fiberglass mesh allows for easy molding and shaping during application. This feature ensures a snug and customized fit around the contours of the injured area, providing optimal support and stability.
