Frequently asked questions
Does this padding allow for regular showering?
Yes. The AquaCast Liner is engineered with expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) to be completely waterproof, allowing patients to shower or bathe normally without the padding absorbing moisture or compromising the cast.
Will this liner help keep skin healthy?
Absolutely. Because the material is breathable, it keeps the skin dry and comfortable. This prevents the moisture buildup and skin breakdown often associated with traditional, non-breathable cast padding.
Is the material easy to apply and shape?
Yes, it is designed for effortless application. It features an adhesive backing that helps the liner stay securely in place, making it simple to mold and conform to the patient’s anatomy for a superior fit.
Is this compatible with fiberglass casts?
Yes, this liner is specifically intended for use under fiberglass casting materials, ensuring a stable and comfortable foundation for your cast.
How much material is included in one box?
Each box contains 12 individual rolls. Each roll measures 2 inches in width and 1.8 yards (66 inches) in length.
Does the adhesive cause skin irritation?
The adhesive is integrated to ensure the liner conforms perfectly to the patient’s limb and remains stable during the casting process. It is a medical-grade design intended to support clinical outcomes and patient comfort.
Can this be used for sterile surgical procedures?
No, this product is provided as non-sterile. It is intended for use as orthopedic padding under fiberglass casting materials.
Why is PTFE preferred over traditional padding?
Traditional padding often absorbs moisture, which can lead to skin irritation or breakdown. PTFE (Expanded Polytetrafluoroethylene) acts as a robust barrier that sheds water effectively while remaining breathable, significantly improving comfort for long-term casting.
Does this product require any special storage?
As a medical-grade supply, it should be kept in its original packaging in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the adhesive backing until it is ready for clinical application.
Will the liner slip once the cast is on?
The adhesive backing is a key feature designed to prevent slippage. By adhering to the skin or the underlying wrap, it ensures the padding remains exactly where it is placed, providing a consistent, secure fit.
