Key Material Benefits

ProDrape is part of the Aquaplast family, the only Rolyan splinting family that turns transparent when heated and has 100 percent memory.

ProDrape has the added feature of being the most conformable of all Aquaplast materials.



Handling

Resistance to stretch: Minimum

Stretches easily when heated and only needs soft, gentle pressure to form a splint. Be careful not to allow the material to stretch too much.

Conformability: Moderate/Maximum

Easily conforms to surface contours and detail, reducing time spent fabricating splint, and provides a precise fit for increased comfort and fewer pressure areas. High degree of drape.

Memory: 100 percent

When reheated, the material “remembers” its original shape and returns to it. Allows for repeated reheating and reshaping for splint revisions.

Bonding: Coated

Create a temporary bond by pinching together heated material; however, it will come apart when cooled. Form a permanent bond by scrubbing off the coating or removing it with a bond solvent.



Physical

Colors: Assorted

Charcoal or white

Thickness: Assorted

Available in the following sheet thicknesses: 1/8" (3.2 mm), 1/16" (1.6 mm) and 3/32" (2.4 mm).

Perforations : Assorted

Available in 4 percent, 13 percent, 19 percent or solid material.

Appearance: Assorted

Charcoal is translucent and white is transparent when heated.



Hardened Splint

Rigidity: Moderate/Maximum (48.7 kpsi*)

Retains shape without reinforcement.

Surface: Smooth

Resists fingerprints and markings if handled properly.

Rolyan ProDrape™ Thermoplastic Splinting Material

Overview

ProDrape™ is the most conformable material of the Aquaplast™ family, stretching easily with excellent draping ability and conforming well to contours. ProDrape gives clinicians a material best suited for patients with pain or irritation of the joints, where gentler handling and detail are needed. ProDrape, like Aquaplast-T ™, has a water-based, non-stick coating, which prevents accidental bonding. With 100% memory, the material “remembers” its original shape when reheated and returns to it, allowing for repeated reheating and reshaping for splint revisions. It is also the only material family that becomes translucent when heated, helping the clinician identify landmarks for positioning and pressure points to provide maximum comfort for the patient.

Rolyan Spectrum of Splinting Material

Rolyan provides therapists and clinicians the largest spectrum of hand therapy products and care. Rolyan empowers every therapist with the passion to mold and shape their patients’ recovery.

Heating Instructions

The recommended method for heating splinting materials is with hot water in a splint bath.
Only use a heat gun for spot-heating and adjustments.

Note: Overheating splinting materials increases the draping/stretching characteristics; allow material to cool slightly before handling to avoid excess stretching.

Indications

Splinting materials are intended to be used for fabrication of custom-molded rigid splints, orthoses, and adaptive equipment.

Best uses include:

  • Thumb spica splints
  • Finger splints
  • Hand splints
  • Wrist splints
  • Elbow splints for flexion
  • Dynamic splints
  • Foot drop splints
  • Carpal tunnel splints
  • Pediatric splints
  • Adaptive equipment
  • Splints for arthritis
  • Flexor tendon repair splints
  • Serial static splints

Care & Cleaning

Store at temperatures between 40° and 90°F (4° and 32°C) and less than 65 percent relative humidity. Avoid prolonged exposure to light, especially ultraviolet. Avoid exposure to corrosive and ethylene oxide fumes.

Formed splints will lose their shape in temperatures over 135°F(57°C) and should be kept away from sources of heat such as ovens, hot water, and car windows.

Clean splint with soap and lukewarm water. Allow splint and straps to dry thoroughly before reapplication.

Precautions for finished orthoses
Splint adjustments are to be made only by a health care professional, who is responsible for providing wearing instructions and precautions to other practitioners, care providers and the patient. If unusual swelling, skin discoloration or discomfort occurs, discontinue use and consult a health care professional.
