These lines are stocked for fracture rooms, orthopedic clinics and emergency departments across the common limb casting sizes.

Fiberglass and Plaster Casting
Fiberglass and plaster serve different casting roles. Fiberglass tape is the higher-turnover material for routine casting, valued for its light weight, fast set and water resistance, and is stocked in a color range for institutional use. Plaster bandage is stocked for molding and cases where a plaster surface is preferred. Each product page lists the material, roll width, color and rolls per box so procurement can stock a complete casting range.
Casting tape is a core high-turnover casting room consumable, with fiberglass tape in the common widths replenishing fastest across active fracture clinics and emergency departments. Because casting tape is consumed on every cast application, standing orders and consolidated case pricing across the width and color range keep the cast cart stocked for materials management.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between fiberglass and plaster casting tape?
Fiberglass casting tape is lighter, sets in minutes, is water-resistant and is the higher-turnover casting material in most fracture rooms. Plaster bandage is heavier, sets more slowly and is stocked for molding and cases where a plaster surface is preferred. Both are stocked in the standard roll widths in the casting tape and bandages subcategory.
What widths and colors of fiberglass casting tape are stocked?
Fiberglass casting tape is stocked in the standard roll widths (commonly 2, 3, 4 and 5 inch) and in a range of colors in addition to white. Roll width is selected to match the limb being cast. Each product page lists the width, color and rolls per box for the item.
Which casting tape brands are stocked?
Fiberglass casting tape lines commonly stocked include 3M Scotchcast and BSN medical Delta-Lite, along with 3M Soft Cast semi-rigid tape for cases that call for a softer cast. Plaster bandage lines such as BSN medical Gypsona are stocked for plaster casting. Brand and format availability are listed on each product page.
Can orthopedic clinics order casting tape in bulk?
Yes. Casting tape and bandages are stocked in case quantities for hospitals, orthopedic clinics, fracture rooms, emergency departments and licensed distributors. Fiberglass casting tape in the common widths is among the highest-turnover casting SKUs and carries standing order programs. Contact our procurement team for tiered case pricing and standing order setup.
What casting tape and bandages should be in a facility formulary?
A casting tape formulary typically stocks fiberglass casting tape in the common roll widths and a core color range, a semi-rigid tape such as Soft Cast for softer casts, and plaster bandage in the standard widths for cases that call for it. Facilities match tape width to their case mix and stock a full width range. MAP Medical builds consolidated casting tape formulary packages matched to facility type and case volume - contact our team for an assessment.
