Description
The Qadam Round Mineral-Oil Gel Pad with Hook Backing is a soft, round gel pad that may help offload pressure and absorb shock and shear forces. Its soft gel formulation makes it suitable for use anywhere on the body.
The pad is made from a mineral-oil-infused polymer gel. The gel slowly releases medical-grade mineral oil, which is designed to soften and moisturise the skin while the soft polymer cushions against pressure and friction. A hook backing allows it to be attached to loop-compatible surfaces in braces, splints and orthoses.
Each pad is 63.5 mm in diameter and is available in 3 mm or 6 mm thickness.
