3M Scotchcast Soft Cast Casting Tape

3M Scotchcast Soft Cast Casting Tape is a white fiberglass casting tape that cures to a flexible, pliable cast rather than a rigid one. The soft, pliable cast edges improve patient comfort, and the flexible cured cast allows mobility where a fully rigid cast is not required. It can be used in combination with rigid fiberglass splints, where the soft edges add comfort at the cast borders.
