Description

  • Create strong, polished splints in less time.
  • Resistance to Stretch
  • Maximum resistance to stretch.
  • Omega™ Black can be stretched and pulled around curves without thinning or growing out of control.
  • Good for infrequent or novice splinters.
  • Minimum drape.
  • Use firm handling to make large or small contours.
  • Ideal for splinting clients who are unable to cooperate due to spasticity or non-painful contractures.
  • Moderate memory helps hold the formed shape when reheated.
  • Makes smooth, sealed edges if cut when warm.
  • Maximum rigidity.
  • Upper and lower extremity splints will hold their position even against strong pressure or hypertonicity.
  • Uncoated material. 
  • Provides a very sticky surface when warm and bonds without the need for solvents.
  • Sticks easily to itself. 
  • Use as bonding agent to attach outriggers or other accessories to splint.
  • Use as a bonding agent to attach outriggers or other accessories to a splint or a permanent bond, apply dry heat to the surface until shiny and attach accessories directly to the material. 
  • Wet bonds can be released in warm water if necessary. 
  • For easier handling, add liquid soap to water and keep thermoplastic damp while molding. 
  • Handling instructions are included. 
  • Maximum resistance to fingerprints. 
  • Can tolerate aggressive handling, resulting in a semi-glossy appearance.
  • If pressure or wrappings are removed while Omega™ Black is still warm, marks will disappear from the surface.
  • 1/8" thickness is recommended for larger areas, i.e. spasticity splints, lower extremity positioning splints, back supports and for serial static splinting.
  • 3/32" thickness makes excellent fitting wrist and hand splints.
  • Working Time (1/8")
  • Sets up in three to four minutes at 160° F (71°C). 
  • Sets up quickly, saving time when splinting frightened or non-compliant patients.
