Semi-rigid resin bandages

3M Soft Cast Semi-rigid Resin Bandages, shown in the image, have several distinctive features.

Material: They are made of a soft, inextensible fiberglass mesh coated with a polyurethane resin.

Flexibility and Inextensibility: After curing, the material remains flexible but inextensible, allowing for functional support.

Adaptability and Comfort: They adapt perfectly to the contours of the body, and their soft edges ensure great comfort for the patient.

Breathability: The material is breathable, which contributes to patient comfort.

Rapid Curing: The curing process is rapid, beginning in 3 to 5 minutes and being fully stressful after approximately 20 to 30 minutes.

Support Modulation: The rigidity of the device can be modulated by adjusting the number of layers applied, depending on the patient’s needs and indications.

Therapeutic Benefits: They help reduce muscle atrophy and joint stiffness, improve venous drainage, and accelerate healing.

Ease of Use: The bandage can be removed using standard cast scissors. Versatility: They can be used alone for flexible, non-stretchable support or combined with rigid resins (such as 3M Scotchcast) for functional immobilization devices.

Indications: Suitable for various indications such as sprains, ligament injuries, post-operative immobilization, devices for clubfoot, and offloading slippers for diabetic feet.
