Prowrap Cohesive Bandage for Horses
Description
Prowrap Cohesive Bandage — Self-Adhering Leg Wrap for Horses
The Prowrap Cohesive Bandage is a competitively priced, quality cohesive bandage that holds dressings, poultices and pads securely in place on a horse's leg. It is designed for everyday yard use as well as for training and competition, and suits horse owners, grooms and riders who want a dependable wrap in the first aid kit.
Cohesive means the bandage bonds to itself rather than to hair, skin or rugs, so it stays put while the horse moves and lifts away cleanly without pulling the coat.

- Tear the bandage by hand and press the end firmly onto the layer beneath to seal.
- Check the leg regularly for heat, swelling or rubbing, and remove immediately if the horse seems uncomfortable.

FAQ
Does the Prowrap Cohesive Bandage stick to the horse's coat?
No. It is a cohesive bandage, which means it bonds only to itself. It will not stick to hair, skin or rugs, so removal is comfortable for the horse.
What is this bandage best for?
It is best for holding dressings, poultices and pads in place, and for general support wrapping during training and competition.
Do I need scissors to apply it?
No. The bandage can be torn by hand to the length required, which makes it quick to use in the stable or at a venue.
How tight should a cohesive bandage be?
Apply with light, even tension over suitable padding and never stretch it tight across a tendon or joint. Check the limb regularly for heat or swelling and re-wrap if it feels tight or has slipped.
Can the bandage be reused?
Once soiled or stretched it should be discarded. Keeping spare rolls in the lorry and tack room means you always have a clean one to hand.
Is it suitable for ponies as well as horses?
Yes. The wrap is conformable and can be torn to length, so it suits ponies, cobs and full-size horses.
