Made from PTFE fibers that repel water rather than absorb it, this padding lets patients shower, wash, and go about daily life without the anxiety of a soggy, itchy, odor-prone cast underneath their fiberglass. For clinicians applying fiberglass casts, it's the padding layer that makes a truly waterproof cast possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe line comes from Essity and BSN Medical — the same manufacturing heritage behind trusted orthopedic products — and is offered in the widths that match common casting needs. The \u003cstrong\u003eEssity AquaCast 2 Inch x 5-1\/2 Foot (ACL-2-S)\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e3 Inch x 5-1\/2 Foot (ACL-3-S)\u003c\/strong\u003e rolls are well suited to wrists, forearms, and pediatric applications, while the \u003cstrong\u003eBSN Medical AquaCast 4 Inch x 1.8 Yard (ACL-4-S)\u003c\/strong\u003e covers larger limbs and offers an adhesive, waterproof design for use beneath fiberglass casting tape. All are non-sterile, white, and quick to conform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow waterproof padding actually works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional cotton or synthetic undercast padding wicks and holds moisture, which is why standard casts must be kept dry. PTFE padding is hydrophobic — water passes through and drains out rather than lodging against the skin. When paired with fiberglass casting tape (not plaster), the result is a cast a patient can submerge and rinse, with the padding drying quickly afterward. This dramatically reduces skin breakdown, itching, and the trapped-moisture odor that develops over weeks of wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA few practical notes for application: AquaCast is intended for use with fiberglass, not plaster, and the cast should be dried per the clinician's guidance after immersion — usually a gentle shake and air-dry, or a cool blow-dryer, to clear residual water. Proper wrapping technique still matters for smooth, even padding without pressure points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eExplore the full \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/aquacast\"\u003eAquaCast\u003c\/a\u003e range to match roll width to your casting protocols, and stock the sizes your practice reaches for most.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"essity-aquacast-cast-padding","title":"Essity AquaCast Cast Padding","description":"Essity AquaCast Waterproof Cast Padding is the ultimate solution for protecting your cast from water and moisture.
