Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the ideal water temperature for applying the Safix Plus plaster?
The ideal water temperature is between 20°C and 25°C. Using very hot water can drastically reduce the setting time, making the plaster difficult to shape, while very cold water will slow down the hardening.
Can Safix Plus bandages be used to make a final cast or only for splints?
These bandages are suitable both for creating temporary immobilization splints and for reinforcing and completing a final circular cast. Their fast setting time is beneficial in cases where speed is required in the initial support.
How should the bandages be stored to maintain their fast setting speed?
To ensure the quick setting time, the bandages must be stored in a dry, cool environment, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Exposure to moisture can cause pre-hardening of the plaster and render the bandage unusable.
