Rolyan Aquaplast-T Splinting Material
Rolyan Aquaplast-T thermoplastic sheets give the clinician complete control to form the perfect-fitting splint to support the patient’s hand, wrist, elbow, ankle, and more. The splinting material features a moderate resistance to stretch and will not stretch out of shape when removed from the splint bath allowing it to easily conform to the surface contours. The coated thermoplastic splinting material is often easier to handle and allows for a temporary bond when warm, but once cooled the bond is not permanent. The coating may be removed to create a permanent bond with spirits or by safely scratching the splint surface. A coated surface is also great for long-term splint use as it is less porous and easier to clean.
When reheated, the Aquaplast family is the only Rolyan splinting family that “remembers” its original shape and returns to it. It also is the only family that turns transparent or translucent when heated to provide identification of pressure points and landmarks to provide maximum comfort. These two unique characteristics help the clinician form the perfect-fitting splint with the ability to be repeatedly reheated and reshaped for splint revisions.
Aquaplast-T is available in 1/8" (3.2 mm), 1/16" (1.6 mm), 3/16" (4.8mm) and 3/32" (2.4 mm) sheet thicknesses. Select 1 percent, 13 percent, 19 percent, 38 percent, 42 percent, or solid perforation options. The Rolyan Aquaplast material has a moderate to maximum rigidity rated at 59.2 kpsi to retain shape without reinforcement. Color: White.
