Description

  • Minimum to moderate resistance to stretch.
  • Tolerates minimum to moderate handling during splint molding.
  • Handle on a horizontal plane and form splint in a gravity-assisted position.
  • Gentle, smooth motions yield superior results.
  • Moderate drape with only light to moderate pressure.
  • Contours are quick to form.
  • Minimum to moderate memory.
  • Splints can be modified a few times without thinning.
  • Requires less handling and maintains contours while cooling.
  • Molded splints have a moderate rigidity.
  • A circumferential splint is flexible enough for easy donning and doffing, yet strong enough for immobilization.
  • The unique Environmentally Friendly (EF) coating gives a tacky feel that helps hold the material in place, without the material pulling or falling away.
  • A wet bond will hold firmly but can be pulled apart once cooled.
  • Dry heating two surfaces will form a strong bond.
  • For a permanent bond, scratch to remove the coating and apply dry heat, then press together firmly.
  • Do not use solvent
  • Instruction Guidelines included.
  • Moderate resistance to fingerprints and resists showing stains.
  • Smooth, self-sealing cut edges remain sealed even after reheating.
  • 1/8" Preferred® can be used for almost any splinting application. 
  • Use for dynamic and static splinting; for adult and pediatric positioning; and for post-burn and post-surgical care.
  • 3/32" Preferred® is thin and lightweight, yet strong, and can be used for forearm and hand-based splints. 
  • Ideal for arthritis splints, post-operative splints, and for pediatric splints when children are able to cooperate.
  • Working Time (1/8")
  • Allows three to five minutes to form and harden after softening in 160° F (71° C) water.
