Orfit� NS 1/8" (3.2mm) 18" x 24" (45 x 60cm) Coated variety of Non-Stick Orfit� Classic allows multiple application opportunities.
Resistance to Stretch:
Minimum resistance to stretch. Allows the splintmaker to easily stretch and wrap material for circumferential splinting.
Stretch material to achieve maximal conforming fit.
Drape:
Maximum drape. Ideal for creating intricate shapes and contours.
Memory/Recovery:
100% memory. Material will return to its original flat shape and size when reheated. Completely remoldable. Ideal for novice splinters.
Rigidity:
Moderate rigidity. Splints flex slightly with force, especially the perforated, thinner materials.
Circumferential splints increase rigidity.
Bonding:
NS (Non-Stick) material has a traditional coating to help prevent accidental bonding, but retains a tacky surface that helps keeps splint in place during molding.
Forms temporary bond when pinched together warm, but easy to pop apart once cooled.
For permanent bond, use solvent or scrape off coating, dry heat and press together firmly.
Surface Finish:
Resists fingerprints.
Leaves smooth, self sealing edges when cut warm.
Correct shape and trim edges prior to cooling for best results.
Applications:
Choose thicker, smooth materials for large splints, lower extremity positioning, back supports and shoulder splints.
Choose thinner, perforated materials for lightweight, circumferential hand and finger splints, gauntlet style splints and pediatric splints.
Turns translucent when warm, allowing observation of landmarks and pressure-sensitive areas.
Working Time:
Allows five to six minutes to form and harden after softening in 150� F (66� C) water.
Latex Free.
