North Coast Medical Preferred 1/8" (3.2mm) Perforated 1% Splinting Material 

Our most versatile splinting material can be used by novice or experienced splinters alike

Resistance to Stretch

Minimum to moderate resistance to stretch.
Tolerates minimum to moderate handling during splint molding.
Handle on a horizontal plane and form splint in a gravity-assisted position.
Gentle, smooth motions yield superior results.

Drape

Moderate drape with only light to moderate pressure.
Contours are quick to form.

Memory

Minimum to moderate memory.
Splints can be modified a few times without thinning.
Requires less handling and maintains contours while cooling.
Rigidity

Molded splints have a moderate rigidity.
A circumferential splint is flexible enough for easy donning and doffing, yet strong enough for immobilization.

Bonding

A wet bond will hold firmly but can be pulled apart once cooled.
Dry heating two surfaces will form a strong bond.
For a permanent bond, use solvent minimally and dry heat prior to bonding.
Surface Finish
Moderate resistance to fingerprints and resists showing stains.
Smooth, self-sealing cut edges remain sealed even after reheating.

Applications

1/8" Preferred can be used for almost any splinting application. Use for dynamic and static splinting; for adult and pediatric positioning; and for post-burn and post-surgical care.

Working Time (1/8")

Allows three to five minutes to form and harden after softening in 160° F (71° C) water.
