Description

AquaShield

AquaShield performs to the advantage of both physicians and patients.

The AquaShield is made from latex-free, heavy-gauge polyurethane, a material renowned for its strength and elasticity. It features a pre-formed opening that can be stretched to five times its size — yet returns to within 3 percent of its original dimension. Perhaps best of all, it slides easily over a cast or bandage, creating a comfortable, watertight seal.

  • Fits: 7.0″ to 9.0″ Limb Circumference in inches

How To Make Your Aquashield Watertight

If showering, slide the AquaShield over the cast by pulling on the corners. Make sure the seal is an inch or so above the cast and completely flat and smooth. This will keep your cast dry for a shower.
