How water resistant is my Dricast waterproof cast cover?

Your Dricast Cover is totally waterproof if used correctly and the fitting instructions are followed.

Because of its seal, water cannot penetrate into the cover and will keep your cast, bandage or wound completely dry.

What activities does the Dricast waterproof cast cover allow me to undertake?

You can bathe, shower, swim or undertake hydrotherapy to aid in rehabilitation.

How durable is my Dricast waterproof cast cover?

If used properly and the fitting instructions are followed it is durable enough to be used in almost all indoor situations.

The arm model can also easily be used in outdoor situations. However extreme care should be taken with the leg covers in outdoor situations to not walk on them. They are designed for swimming only.

Walking on the cover could cause the cover to puncture. The leg models are recommended more for outdoor pool use (fit at the pool edge) as opposed to in the ocean where you will be required to walk on a sandy/rocky base that could easily puncture the cover.

they can also become a little slippery when wet.

How do I clean and store the cover?

Simply rinse with warm water after use and let it air dry.

Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain its quality.

Dricast covers are natural rubber so will degrade over a long period.

Is it safe for children and adults?

Absolutely.

We have both adult and child sizes so are designed for all ages.

How long can I use the Dricast waterproof cast cover for?

You can wear your Dricast cover for as long as it is comfortable and it does not become too tight and you regularly check it.

However, it is recommended that you only use it for the length of time required for a shower or a swim of 20-30 minutes at a time. No longer than a maximum of 45-60 minutes.

Longevity – Overall your Dricast cover if used and stored correctly will last several months. However being natural latex rubber it will breakdown naturally over time particularly if exposed to light sources.
