Undercast Padding Protection

Undercast Padding Protection

On a fracture clinic bench or a GP treatment room, undercast padding is the soft layer that goes onto the skin before the rigid cast is wrapped over it. It cushions bony prominences, spreads pressure, and keeps the hard plaster or fibreglass shell off the skin underneath. The Cotton Undercast Bandage is the conformable cotton padding most clinics reach for, and it's the in-stock option here. Delta Dry Water Resistant Cast Padding is the water-resistant alternative for casts that need to tolerate moisture.

The right padding comes down to the cast you're applying and how the limb will be used. Cotton padding moulds easily around contours and layers up over pressure points, which suits most plaster and fibreglass work. Water-resistant padding suits cases where the cast may get wet. The rigid layers that go over the top sit in our plaster of Paris bandage and fibreglass bandage collections, and the technique is covered in our wound care and injury guide.

FAD is Australian owned and stocks the casting consumables alongside the padding, so a clinic orders the cast and the protective layer on one account. Call the team on 03 5443 2239 for help matching padding to your casting setup.
