Reviews
Delta-Cast Elite is a lightweight, non-fibreglass polyester casting tape designed for rigid primary and secondary casts. Supplied as white 3.6m rolls in a box of 10, it combines strength and rigidity with smooth edges to support comfortable, well fitting casts.
The conformable substrate shapes easily to body contours, helping clinicians achieve wrinkle free applications with consistent setting characteristics. The latex free formulation and ability to apply using standard examination gloves make it suitable for busy fracture clinics and orthopaedic services.
- Non-fibreglass polyester casting tape: Fibreglass free construction helps support clear imaging and reduces dust during cast removal compared with traditional fibreglass casts.
- Rigid support for primary and secondary casts: Designed for fracture immobilisation and other situations where stable, durable casts are required.
- Excellent conformability: Patented polyester substrate shapes easily to body contours without folding or tucking, promoting a smooth cast surface and accurate limb positioning.
- Consistent set time: Typical working time of around 0–3 minutes with full set in approximately 3–20 minutes, allowing weight bearing from about 20 minutes where clinically appropriate.
- Soft, smooth cast edges: Finished surface and rounded edges are intended to enhance patient comfort and reduce the risk of skin irritation at cast margins.
- Latex free formulation: Suitable for use with standard examination gloves and for patients where avoidance of natural rubber latex is preferred.
- Flexible sizing options: 3.6m rolls available in a range of widths to accommodate upper and lower limb applications and different patient sizes.
- Pack of 10 rolls: Supplied in boxes of 10 to support routine casting workloads and stock management in clinical environments.
