Wrist Forearm Splint Kit
Sugar Tong and Reverse Sugar Tong Splint Kit - OrthoTape
Everything you need in a splint kit to make the Sugar Tong or Reverse Sugar Tong Forearm Splint. Our OrthoTape Padded Synthetic Pre-Cut Splint material is a unique quick-setting splint system that already has the padding built in. No need to add extra padding or stockinette to make the splint. Simply remove from the pouch, wet, trim and form around the patient's limb. Then apply our self-adhesive bandages included with your kit to hold the splint in place. Allow 5-7 minutes for the splint to set and solidify.
The sugar-tong or reverse sugar-tong forearm splint is a long U-shaped splint that immobilizes the injured forearm and wrist and prevents rotation and wrist motion. The sugar tong heals the fractured bones by keeping the fractured ends together and in alignment. It got its name because of its long shape and a similar look to the utensil used to pick up sugar cubes.
I was very please with the purchase of the fiberglass thumb splint, it works well for my son. after i finally figured out how to use it, getting to form to his thumb and arm was a breeze.

Product was delivered quickly and arrived exactly as expected. It’s a top quality product, though it’s not needed I would personally add another roll of padding and appropriate sized stockinette for added comfort.
