North Coast Medical Encore Splinting Material
Allows repeated remolding for perfect results. Turns translucent when warm.
Resistance to Stretch
Minimum to moderate resistance to stretch.
Can be used for single-surface splinting or stretched circumferential.
Drape
Maximum drape. Excellent conformability and reproduction of detail.
Turns translucent when thoroughly heated and retains its clarity for the first few minutes of molding, allowing visibility of landmarks and bony prominences.
Memory
100% memory.
Will regain its original cut shape and size every time it is reheated.
Encore can be used to make a variety of orthoses, providing firm to lightweight support from the hand to the foot.
Rigidity
Moderately rigid splints.
If a more flexible splint is required, simply stretch the material to achieve the desired rigidity and thickness.
Bonding
Traditional coating has a tacky surface that helps hold the splint in place during molding.
Pieces pinched together can be pulled apart once cooled.
Use only dry heat and firm pressure to bond firmly; use solvent to form a permanent bond.
Surface Finish
Resists fingerprinting for a smooth, shiny surface. To remove marks and bring out shine, dip in warm water or lightly heat the surface with dry heat.
Applications
Use 3/32" Encore™ for hand and wrist splints, arthritis splints, circumferential splints and burn splints. It is also ideal as a base for smaller dynamic outriggers.
Lightweight 1/16" Encore™ is ideal for pediatric and finger positioning splints.
