Resistance to Stretch:
Minimum to moderate.
Gently pull material to form splint.
Tolerates minimal to moderate handling, depending on the size of the splint made.
Drape:
Maximum.
Ideal for forming exact fitting over contoured areas.
Material becomes transparent when warm for proper alignment over bony landmarks.
Memory:
100% memory. Material will return to its original flat shape and size when reheated. Can start over if mistakes are made.
Rigidity:
Moderate. Splints flex slightly with force. Circumferential splints increase with rigidity.
Bonding:
NS (Non-Stick) material has a traditional coating that will not stick to bandage or skin but does have some tackiness.
A temporary wet bond can be pulled apart once cooled.
For permanent bond, scratch off coating or use solvent and apply dry heat.
Surface Finish:
Bright glossy finish in a white semi-transparent color that resists fingerprints. Most marks and mars disappear as the material cools. Edges cut smooth when warm.
Reheated edges become smooth by rubbing with wet finger.
Applications:
Ideal for a wide variety of splints from small to large. Excellent as a base for different attachments.
Use for finger and wrist splints, cervical collars, AFOs and fracture braces.
Working Time:
Allows five to six minutes to form and harden after softening in 150� F (66� C) water.
