Omega Plus, Perforated Thermoplastic Splinting Material White, 1/8 in. x 24 in. x 36 in. (2)

Maximum resistance to stretch and minimum drape allows aggressive handling. Resistance to Stretch Maximum resistance to stretch. Firm handling needed to stretch material. Omega™ Plus can be stretched and pulled around curves without thinning or growing out of control. Drape Minimum drape. Use firm handling, for smaller contours. Best for larger joints of the body needing firm support. Ideal for splinting clients who are unable to cooperate due to spasticity or non-painful contractures. Memory 100% memory. Ideal for serial splinting. If mistake is made in fitting, reheat and start over. Good for infrequent or novice splinters. Rigidity Maximum rigidity. Upper and lower extremity splints will hold their position even against strong pressure or hypertonicity. Bonding Unique powder coating provides a slightly tacky surface when warm. A wet bond will hold firmly but can be pulled apart when cool. Permanent bond with minimum solvent and dry heat. Surface Finish Maximum resistance to fingerprints. Can tolerate aggressive handling. If pressure or wrappings are removed while Omega™ Plus is still warm, marks will disappear from the surface. Applications Use for anti-spasticity splints, lower extremity positioning splints, shoulder abduction (airplane) splints, back supports and for serial static splinting. Working Time (1/8") Sets up in three to four minutes at 160° F (71° C).  Sets up quickly saving time if splinting frightened or non-compliant patients.
