FP83 Sandbag: 15cm x 45cm 3kg

he FP83 3.0kg Sandbag is the versatile "workhorse" of the Dartex-covered range. With its elongated 15 x 45 cm profile, this medium-weight bag is specifically designed to provide stable, longitudinal support for limbs, making it an indispensable tool for both general radiography and specialized clinical positioning.

Long-Axis Limb Stabilization

The unique dimensions of the FP83 make it the ideal choice for stabilizing longer anatomical structures. Whether you are imaging the forearm, lower leg, or securing a patient’s side during lateral recumbent positioning, the 45 cm length provides consistent pressure across the entire limb.

• Lower Leg & Forearm Support: The elongated shape prevents "pivoting" or rotation of the limb during high-detail exposures.

• Balanced 3.0kg Weight: Provides enough gravitational force to ensure immobilization without being overly heavy for geriatric or sensitive patients.

Advanced Material Performance

• Medical-Grade Dartex Fabric: Like the rest of the FP range, the FP83 is wrapped in polyurethane-coated technical fabric. This "multi-stretch" material allows the 3.0kg weight to mold perfectly to the contours of the calf or arm, distributing pressure evenly.

• 100% Fluid-Proof: The internal weight is fully protected by a waterproof barrier, ensuring that no blood, contrast media, or other clinical fluids can penetrate the bag.

• Superior Hygiene: Built to withstand "deep clean" protocols, the FP83 is highly resistant to aggressive hospital-grade disinfectants and the friction of daily scrubbing.
