Wrist Forearm Splint Kit — Sugar Tong & Reverse Sugar Tong
The modern fiberglass replacement for the traditional plaster sugar tong splint. If you've been searching for a plaster sugar tong splint, plaster forearm splint, or Colles' fracture plaster splint — this is the upgraded fiberglass version that clinicians now use instead. The sugar tong design wraps around the elbow to prevent forearm rotation — critical for distal radius and Colles' fractures. Lighter weight. Faster setting. More durable than plaster.
This complete professional-grade kit includes pre-padded synthetic fiberglass splint material, self-adhesive bandages, and synthetic padding for quick, effective forearm immobilization — with no additional materials needed. Sets in just 5–7 minutes.
🔄 Replacing Plaster Sugar Tong Splints? Fiberglass has replaced plaster as the clinical standard for sugar tong splints. It's lighter, stronger, sets faster, and is more durable — while providing the same forearm rotation control as traditional plaster sugar tong techniques used for Colles' and distal radius fractures.
