Casting orthopedic tape Cellacast® Active

rigid

Cellacast Active is fast and easy to apply. The polyester substrate has a very high elasticity which provides exceptional conformability especially around the heel and Achilles tendon. Stability and flexibility of the cast can be individually adjusted by the number of layers. Fewer layers offer greater flexibility, more layers increase stability providing immobilization where necessary. Depending on the number of layers, a Cellacast Active cast can be cut with cast scissors. For use in creating a negative impression mold, in addition to the tape's conformability, the combination of the substrate and resin creates a less porous mold, thus reducing the plaster loss seeping through the substrate. Low tack resin allows for easy handling and molding using standard exam gloves Fields of application For focused immobilization following fractures and surgery and the treatment of ligament injuries Immobilization with controlled movement Good choice for children's casts Create a mold of a residual limb or foot for the purpose of making an orthotic or prosthetic Features/ Benefits high flexibility and mobility removable with the cast scissors fibreglass-free support quick and easy to process thin, lightweight polyester fabric conforms easily to the body contours particularly X-ray transparent — the course of healing is easier to monitor To note Wearing gloves is recommended when working with this product can be removed with cast scissors setting time: 4-5 min entirely resilient after 20-30 min recommended water temperature: 20 to 25°C Tips: Cellacast hook-and-loop tapes are available for the retention of splints and braces for focused immobilization.
