Prism Splint

Drape

• Moderate drape for excellent fit and conformability.

Memory

• 100% memory for easy remolding.

Rigidity

• Minimum rigidity. Splints flex slightly with pressure for more comfortable wear.
• Circumferential splints will increase rigidity.
• Splints made from 1/8" Prism™ are rigid enough to handle the force of dynamic components.
• Splints made from 1/12" perforated Prism™ form strong but flexible splints for a variety of lightweight applications.

Bonding

• Traditional non-sticky coating allows the splinter to fabricate overlapping circumferential splints quickly. Splints can be molded over bandages easily without sticking.
• To form a permanent bond, scrape shiny coating off using scissors or use solvent and dry heat until the material is soft. Press together firmly.

Surface Finish

• Resists fingerprints, even with aggressive handling.
• Color retains its vibrancy and shine.

Applications

• 1/8" Prism™ can be used for hand and upper extremity splints, lower extremity splints and return-to-work splints. Great for serial splinting.
• 1/12" Prism™ is ideal when a lighter weight, less rigid material is desired. Use for pediatric, finger, thumb and circumferential splints.
• Prism™ turns translucent when ready to apply.
• Leaves sealed, smooth edges when cut warm.

Working Time (1/8")

• Prism™ has a long working time becoming firm in approximately six minutes at 160°F (71°C).
