The AEROFORM Heavyweight Conforming Bandage 5cm x 4M is the heavier weave in the AEROFORM range — used to support sprains and strains and to give comfort to injured limbs and joints, rather than simply holding a dressing on. At 5cm it is the width for wrists, ankles and forearms — the joints that most often need support after a minor sprain. Aero Healthcare recommend the heavyweight and premium ranges where greater support and compression are needed, including for sprains, strains and snake bites. Supplied as a wrap of 12 rolls from the Aero Healthcare bandage range.

AEROFORM Heavyweight Conforming Bandage FAQs
What makes it heavyweight?
A denser, heavier weave than the standard conforming bandage. That gives it enough body to hold a joint steady and apply firmer, more even pressure, which is what support work needs and what a light retention bandage cannot do.
Heavyweight or standard — which do I need?
If the bandage is holding a dressing on, standard is enough and costs less. If it is supporting a sprained or strained joint, or providing comfort to an injured limb, choose heavyweight.
Is 5cm enough for a sprained ankle?
5cm suits a wrist or a smaller ankle. For a larger ankle or a calf, 7.5cm gives better coverage per pass and a more even pressure gradient up the limb.
How tight should a support bandage be applied?
Firm and even, never so tight that it causes numbness, tingling, pain or colour change below the bandage. Check the fingers or toes after applying and again a few minutes later, and loosen immediately if circulation looks affected. Seek medical assessment for anything beyond a minor injury.
