Memory: Moderate memory allows for light modifications and edge finishing.
Resistance to stretch (RTS): High – can be handled firmly.
Drape: Low drape enables material to be handled firmly and is ideal for larger splints.
Rigidity: High. Carolina holds shape against the pull of the patient or dynamic components.
Bonding & Finish: This non-coated material is slightly sticky and stays in place during application. It will easily form a permanent bond during orthosis fabrication. The firm material resists fingerprints to give a smooth, matt finish. The edges ‘self seal’ easily if the material is cut when still warm.
Colors: The base material is provided in white only, however it may be printed with any design. (Printing is provided on the ‘Demi’ 30.5 x 46cm size only).
Suggested uses: Spasticity Splints, Dynamic Splints, Large Splints, Trunk Immobilization, Fracture Bracing.
