- Comfortprene™ Splinting Material is a special selection of neoprene designed to meet the varying needs of clients.
- Cut out a splint pattern and make a flexible splint in a matter of minutes.
- No need for sewing or special machines.
- Iron-On Seam Tape and Iron-on Hook and Loop join pieces together and allow for quick fastening.
- Flexible support that conforms to fingers and body contours.
- Light to resistive support depending on the thickness of the material and the size of the area being splinted.
- Light to firm compression.
- Built-in cushioning to reduce pressure point complications. Minimal to moderate warmth.
- Lighter weight and less expensive than thermoplastic materials of comparable size.
- The terry-like plush liner feels soft and dry against the skin.
- Latex-free and machine-washable, air-dry material.

- 1/16" (1.6mm) for hand and finger splints.
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
The unique powder coating gives a tacky feel that helps hold the material in place, without the material pulling or falling away.
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.
3/32" Preferred® is thin and lightweight, yet strong, and can be used for forearm and hand-based splints. Ideal for arthritis splints, post-operative splints, and for pediatric splints when children are able to cooperate.
Working Time (1/8")
Allows three to five minutes to form and harden after softening in 160° F (71° C) water.
Latex Free
See Specs tab for perforation and thickness.
Sheets sold individually or in a case of 2 or 4.

Moderate handling and reheating produce a finished, sculptured appearance
Resistance to Stretch
Moderate resistance to stretch.
Tolerates minimum to moderate handling during splint molding.
Handle on a horizontal plane to form splint in a gravity-assisted position or vertical plane as well.
Smooth motions yield superior, sculpted results.
Drape
Moderate drape requires only light to moderate pressure to form contour fit.
Memory
Minimum to moderate memory.
Splints can be reheated and edges will remain smooth and closed.
Splints will hold their shape when mildly heated for easy fitting adjustments.
Rigidity
Moderate degree of rigidity.
A circumferential splint made of Vanilla™ is flexible enough for easy donning and doffing, yet strong enough for immobilization.
Bonding
The traditional coating allows splinting over bandages without adherence.
A pressed, wet bond will hold firmly but can be pulled apart when cooled.
Dry heating two surfaces will form a strong bond.
For a permanent bond, use solvent or scrape off coating, dry heat and press together.
Surface Finish
Moderate resistance to fingerprints and resists showing stains. To remove marks, lightly heat the surface and rub.
Smooth, self-sealing cut edges remain sealed even after reheating.
Applications
1/8" Vanilla™ can be used for almost any splinting application. Use for adult and pediatric positioning, dynamic and static splinting, and for post-burn and post-surgical care.
3/32" Vanilla™ is thin and lightweight, yet strong, and can be used for finger and hand splints. Ideal for arthritis splints, post-operative splints and for children who are able to cooperate.
