Thickness Guide

1.6mm（1/16”）

• Lightweight support and easy to cut with scissors when cold

• Ideal for pediatrics, finger splints, and hand-based splints.

2.0mm（1/12”）

• Lightweight with moderate support.

• Easy to cut with scissors when cold.

• Ideal for pediatrics, finger, hand-based splints, and other areas requiring lightweight.

2.4mm（3/32"）

• Lightweight with moderate support. 

• Reduces bulkiness of orthoses. 

• Ideal for static, dynamic, or progressive splints where less weight is desired

3.2mm(1/8")

• The standard thickness that provides stability and firm support

• Ideal for static, dynamic, and progressive splinting of upper and lower extremities

4.0mm(1/6“）

• Thicker material provides maximum rigidity. 

• Ideal for body jackets, abnormal tone splints, lower extremity splints, and fracture braces.

Perforation Guide

Non-perforated 

Non-perforated provides maximum support. Ideal for upper and lower extremity splints, braces, spasticity, ambulation, and burn splints.

Perforated 

Perforated(1%, 5%) allows some ventilation. It may slightly reduce support and weight. Materials soften up faster with heating. Great for static, dynamic and progressive type splints and fracture braces.

Extra Perforated

Extra Perforated(12%, 19%, 36%) provides greater ventilation and is lightweight for increased comfort and compliance. Softens and cools faster. A great choice for finger & hand based splints, non-weight-bearing splints and arthritis splints.

Micro Perforation(11%) and Micro-plus Perforation(15%)
