About Arm Sling Strap
An "arm strap" is a general term for a band worn around the arm, but it most commonly refers to a medical arm sling strap for injury support or a sport armband for holding a phone during activities. Medical straps are typically made from soft, breathable, and adjustable fabric to comfortably support and position an injured arm, while sport armbands are often made from neoprene and feature touch-screen compatibility and safety reflectors. Arm straps vary widely in dimensions, weight, and description depending on their specific use, such as for holding a phone, supporting an injury, or assisting with weightlifting.
