- Condition: Factory New
- Weight: 9.3 lb
- Water-repellant so water sheds off splint, helping keep the skin dry; reduces the risk of skin maceration
- Seven-layer fiberglass of splint interior offers greater conformability around the bends and curves of the human body than one unified layer.
- Easy-open seams on both sides of splint: The felt can be easily opened on either side of the splint for quick access to the fiberglass layers and trouble-free trimming.
- Easy-to-use, easy-to-reseal packaging helps prevent exposure to moisture, which causes product hardening, and as a result, waste.

Frequently asked questions
Does this splint help prevent skin irritation?
Yes. It features advanced moisture management through a water-repellant design that effectively sheds moisture, which helps keep the skin dry and significantly lowers the risk of skin maceration.
Is the splint easy to mold to limbs?
Absolutely. It is engineered with a seven-layer fiberglass interior that offers superior conformability, allowing it to mold precisely around complex bodily curves more effectively than traditional single-layer splints.
Can I trim the splint for a better fit?
Yes, it is designed for hassle-free trimming. The splint features easy-open seams on both sides, providing rapid access to the fiberglass layers for quick and clean modifications during application.
How should I store the splints to keep them fresh?
The splints come in resealable, moisture-resistant packaging. This protective pouch is essential for preventing atmospheric humidity from causing the fiberglass to harden prematurely, ensuring the product remains pliable until use.
Is the padding comfortable for the patient?
Yes, the splint is lined with soft, double-sided felt padding. This ensures a high level of patient comfort while maintaining the rigid immobilization needed for orthopedic support.
Is this suitable for emergency orthopedic use?
Yes, this splint is specifically designed for both clinical and emergency orthopedic settings where the priority is rapid, comfortable, and reliable immobilization.
How many splints are in one carton?
Each carton contains 10 padded, precut splints measuring 4 x 30 inches.
Are these splints effective for complex fractures?
The seven-layer fiberglass structure is designed to provide high-performance immobilization. While it offers superior molding capabilities, its suitability for specific fracture types should be determined by a healthcare provider’s clinical assessment.
Does the splint material dry quickly?
The material is water-repellant, which means it does not absorb moisture in the same way traditional materials might. This is a key feature in maintaining skin integrity during the period of immobilization.
Is this a high-quality orthopedic solution?
Yes, this is a professional-grade medical device manufactured by Solventum Corporation, designed to provide high performance and reliability in immobilization tasks.
