Rolled Aluminum Splint – Lightweight 1 Pack

Part of a larger medical kit, I've used both and had to re-order more. Occasionally these are needed on hikes or family vacations. Perfect for the use, and cheap enough I'm not worried about cutting them or re-using them.

I cut this into 3 smaller, forearm-length splints, 1 for my mountain biking camelback/backpacking first aid kit, 1 in the trunk of my car, and 1 for home.I practiced molding one to my forearm, and it was surprisingly stiff and comfortable. It just needed an Ace bandage or some kind of tape or something to make it a functional splint.

For the cost and weight there is no reason not to have two of these in your pack or first aid kit.

I bought the cheaper version because it appeared to look pretty much the same as the name brand. I am happy with it. Cuts easily and is sturdy enough; first use to protect jambed thumb from further damage,I cut it to fit closed about 2/3, then taped it together with a porous surgical tape. Wish I had it when I broke my wrist for the trip to the hosptal to have it set.

Nice and durable! Does the job amd worth the price

I little smaller than I thought they would be, but still a good size for most applications, especially for the price

Great

Foam is of reasonable quality and seems to hold up. Inside support is strong enough without becoming too stiff. Seem to hold up to some abuse from storage and rummaging.

Worked well for my purpose

Should carry one of these if you or hiking or backpaing. It Is a little large, but its light weight and can save your life if you brake your leg in the back woods.

Excellent product for a great price.

Good quality and takes up almost no space in a bag

Excellent value! Way cheaper that purchasing Sam splints, and is a great addition to your first aid kit. Can easily be cut tot he right size.

I bought this to put in my medical kit. It's fairly light and easy to mould. will be buying more soon for my other first aid kits.

A wonderful addition to my first aid kit, haven't had to use it yet but it feels sturdy and folds nicely

Now this is mighty handy to have around! I carry it in my medical bag from location to location. You can create a wonderful splint in any size and form it to suit any shape. You can xray through these. I think they're terrific. In fact, I bought several rolls to have available in my different locations. For this price why not??

While it's no SAM brand splint. Its will work in a pinch. Its doesnt seam as rigid as the SAM but that doesnt matter.For the price. It will work fine for my ATV trauma kit.

Good

Good price for a solid splint. Works as well as other brands. Fits easily in first aide kit, keep it in my car kit for just in case. Likely will purchase more for other vehicles and home first aide kit.

I've carried one of these in my Scouting backpack for years. My strong recommendation is to unroll it flat, fold it to whatever length fits best, mold it to match to the curve of your spine, then stuff it down the back pocket as a comfortable stiffener to your pack. It weighs practically nothing, helps support the internal frame and is easily accessible if you ever have an emergency. It can be molded into several different configurations to splint a leg, an arm, even a temporary cervical collar if you know how.These generics get top ratings for value and function. I miss having the instructions printed on the foam, though (something I've only seen on the official SAM splints). Blank is fine for me because I've used them for years. They are a little less helpful for my Scouts who will have to use it when I'm the one with the broken leg.
