Cellacast Xtra Splint
For a safe stabilisation.
The right type of support for every need
Thin, lightweight and stable — with Cellacast Xtra this is no contradiction but a fact. As a modern synthetic casting tape, it provides secure stabilisation.
Flexibility and comfort
The Ready-for-use Padded Splint meets users’ individual requirements and is comfortable against patients’ skin. Different widths, available as pre-cuts or by the meter in practical cardboard dispensers, make for economic use of the materials. A resealable, airtight foil pouch prevents drying out. The splint is secured with a conforming bandage such as Mollelast haft and can be removed easily, if necessary (e.g. to inspect the wound). The fibreglass core, which is composed of seven layers, provides the required stability.
Stability - light and easy
A high degree of stability is required of casts, especially when treating fractures and after surgery. Lightweight casts are more comfortable and restrict patients the least. Cellacast Xtra is a lightweight casting tape which provides the desired level of stability in only a few wraps. This makes it both sturdy and lightweight enough to be worn comfortably.
Mouldable to any body contour
The casting tape can be moulded to any body contour — even difficult-to-wrap areas around joints — and is easy and quick to apply. In addition, this material has excellent lamination properties, making it attractive in terms of cost savings as well.
For reinforcement: Cellacast Xtra Splint
Cellacast Xtra is also available as a splint. This product can be used not just to apply splints but also to reinforce individual synthetic casts.
