Intended for use by a trained practitioner, this thermoplastic must be heated to mould and professionally fitted. Manosplint Ohio T is a splinting material for fabricating immobilisation and mobilisation orthoses. It offers maximum rigidity for strong support, with 100% memory so it can regain its original size and shape when fully reheated.

Features

• 100% memory: returns to its original size and shape when fully reheated.
• Shapes easily with moderate handling and smooth strokes during moulding.
• Requires moderate pressure to achieve a conforming fit.
• Maximum rigidity provides strong support.
• Semi-coated material allows a ‘pinch and pop’ technique to help hold the material in place during application.
• Resists fingerprints for a clean finish.
• Available options: Black, 1.6mm, 11% perforation; Metallic Blue, 1.6mm, 11% perforation; Black, 2.4mm, 12% perforation; and Black, 3.2mm, 1% perforation.

Suitable For

• Wrist, thumb and hand immobilisation orthoses.
• Orthoses for a wide variety of clinical needs, including paediatric applications, tendon injuries, fractures, arthritis and neurological diagnoses.
• Mobilisation orthoses using a serial static approach.
• Bases for dynamic and static progressive orthosis designs.
• Circumferential orthosis designs.

During moulding, use smooth strokes with moderate handling and apply moderate pressure for a conforming fit. Fully reheating the material allows it to regain its original size and shape.
