6 Inch BSN Gypsona S Plaster of Paris Bandages
BSN Medical Gypsona S 6-inch Plaster of Paris Bandages are the professional choice for large extremity casting in orthopedic clinics and surgical facilities. Featuring a plastic core that prevents shriveling, interlocking leno weave gauze for stability, and a thick creamy plaster texture that is easy to mold and smooth, Gypsona S delivers consistent, strong casts every time.
The 6-inch width is ideal for full leg casts, hip spica casts, and large body casting applications. Available in two setting speeds: Extra Fast Setting (sets in 2-4 minutes) and Fast Setting (sets in 4-8 minutes after water activation). The plaster of paris formula is engineered for strength, helping prevent cast breakdown during the vulnerable curing phase.
Sold by the box of 12 rolls in moisture-resistant packaging. Each roll is 6 inches wide x 5 yards long.
