Delta-Lite Conformable, synthetic support bandage

Delta-Lite Conformable, synthetic support bandage

Elastic cast bandage made of knitted fiberglass — for bandages subjected to heavy stress, such as walking bandages on the lower leg.

Description

Delta-Lite Conformable is a glass fiber-reinforced support bandage for fractures and injuries that require immobilization. The glass fiber backing makes it particularly stable, while the high elasticity of the knit fabric ensures excellent conformability—a combination that is ideal for rigid cast bandages.

Its outstanding unrolling properties allow for even wrapping, and the excellent layer bonding ensures security even under heavy stress. For this reason, this material is primarily used where the cast is subjected to stress, such as in walking casts on the lower leg. The base material is a highly elastic glass fiber knit with water-activatable polyurethane resin.

Key Features

• Highly elastic glass fiber knit fabric with water-activated polyurethane resin
• Particularly stable due to the glass fiber-reinforced backing material
• High elasticity, making it highly adaptable
• Excellent layer bonding even under heavy stress
• Outstanding unrolling performance
• Not manufactured with natural rubber latex
• Diving water temperature approx. 20–25 °C, open time approx. 3–5 minutes, fully load-bearing after 20 minutes
• Widths from 5 cm to 12.5 cm, available in white, blue, green, purple, and red

Applications

• High-stress support bandages, such as walking bandages on the lower leg
• Fractures and injuries requiring complete immobilization
• Rigid casts
• Wear time of up to several weeks

Summary

Delta-Lite Conformable is the choice when the cast must be worn: walking casts on the lower leg place different demands on the material than an arm cast. Stability from the fiberglass and elasticity from the knit fabric are not opposites here, but rather prerequisites.
