When constructing an orthopedic cast from a roll of cast bandage (typically four-inches wide), it is necessary to make tucks or folds to accommodate excess material when changing the direction of wrapping or when going around contours such as the heel of the foot.
Fraying and raveling produce unsightly ends and, in the case of an orthopedic cast, frayed ends may interfere with the formation of a smooth cast, and loose, frayed ends may be sharp and irritating.
Accordingly, frayed edges are considered a distinct disadvantage in orthopedic casting tapes. It is well-known that fraying of fiberglass knits at cut edges can be prevented by passing the fabric through a heat cycle which sets the yarns giving them new three-dimensional configurations based on their positions in the knit.
