Omega™ Black Thermoplastic

Create strong, polished splints in less time.

Resistance to Stretch

Maximum resistance to stretch.
Omega™ Black can be stretched and pulled around curves without thinning or growing out of control.
Good for infrequent or novice splinters.

Drape

Minimum drape.
Use firm handling to make large or small contours.
Ideal for splinting clients who are unable to cooperate due to spasticity or non-painful contractures.

Memory

Moderate memory helps hold the formed shape when reheated.
Makes smooth, sealed edges if cut when warm.

Rigidity

Maximum rigidity.
Upper and lower extremity splints will hold their position even against strong pressure or hypertonicity.

Bonding

Uncoated material. Provides a very sticky surface when warm and bonds without the need for solvents.
Sticks easily to itself. Use as bonding agent to attach outriggers or other accessories to splint.
Use as a bonding agent to attach outriggers or other accessories to a splint or a permanent bond, apply dry heat to the surface until shiny and attach accessories directly to the material.
Wet bonds can be released in warm water if necessary.
For easier handling, add liquid soap to water and keep thermoplastic damp while molding.
Handling instructions are included.

Surface Finish

Maximum resistance to fingerprints. Can tolerate aggressive handling, resulting in a semi-glossy appearance.
If pressure or wrappings are removed while Omega™ Black is still warm, marks will disappear from the surface.

Applications

1/8" thickness is recommended for larger areas, i.e. spasticity splints, lower extremity positioning splints, back supports and for serial static splinting.
3/32" thickness makes excellent fitting wrist and hand splints.

Working Time (1/8")

Sets up in three to four minutes at 160° F (71°C). Sets up quickly, saving time when splinting frightened or non-compliant patients.

Latex Free

Free of BPA chemicals
