Chesapeake's preferred splinting material combines plastic and rubber-like characteristics with a controlled level of rigidity. Allows for fabrication of infinite types of splints. Provides versatile traits, including controlled stretch, intricate conformability, sufficient rigidity, and flexibility. Recommended for static and dynamic splints, spastic patients, elbow/knee and hand/finger/wrist splints, fracture bracing, and body jackets. When heated for 1 minute at 160º F, it will remain moldable for 3 to 4 minutes. Edges take on a self-sealing characteristic when warmed and do not require refinishing. Spot heating, minor adjustments, and permanent self-bonding is accomplished with a heat gun and bonding solvent. THIN (1/16" and 3/32") heats in 15 to 30 seconds and has a working time of 1 to 2 minutes. Recommended for arthritic and pediatric patients. Both styles are available in smooth or perforated.
