This bundle includes one 4.5″ x 36″ roll splint and three universal finger splints. Each splint is individually packaged. The Lightning X Universal “Roll” Splint has an extremely thin aluminum core covered by two layers of closed cell foam. This type of splint is highly customizable and can be used to splint virtually any bone in the body. It’s pliable enough to be molded to all sorts of shapes, depending on the injury and application. To apply, simply unroll and bend the splint to the shape of the extremity and wrap with self-adherent gauze or triangle bandage. Can also be cut to length using trauma shears or even ordinary scissors. Once applied, the splint does not have to be removed for x-rays. As long as the surface isn’t contaminated the splint can be rolled back up and stored for future use. Fully unrolled the splint measures 4.5″ x 36″, but comes packaged in a compact 4.5″ x 6″ x 1″ size, weighing only 5 ounces.
Worked great with an athlete’s fracture Glad I purchased these when I did. A week after receiving them, an athlete of mine had a high grade sprain to their ankle with possible fracture. I used the large splint and ACE wrap to stabilize while she went to get X-Rays. Rigid, but malleable material similar to a SAM but much cheaper. Thank you.
Works well, and interesting material too As good as any SAM splint Iâve used, and actually useful in a few DIY projects. Great stuff as part of a medical preparedness kit, but also lightweight, foam-padded aluminum is just as an interesting material to work with.
Compact and great quality! Fits great into our backpacks – great material. Must have for dirt bike adventures!
