• Gentle, smooth handling motions help achieve the best results.
• Edges trim easily and can be rubbed smooth.
• Allows temporary or permanent bonding using the appropriate preparation.
• 1.6mm thickness, supplied in 31 x 46cm sheets in a case of 4.

Suitable For

• Splint fabrication for clients with pain or irritation who require gentle handling.
• Dynamic outrigger splint bases for joints requiring gentle handling.
• Neck collars and face masks.
• Wrist, hand, finger and thumb splints.

Heating and Handling

Heat the 1.6mm material for 35 seconds at 65–70°C to provide 1–2 minutes of working time. Handle on a horizontal plane and form the splint in a gravity-assisted position, using gentle, smooth motions.

Bonding

For a temporary bond, pinch heated surfaces together. For a permanent bond, remove the coating with liquid remover or by scraping with a sharp instrument.
