Built with a core of soft aluminum sandwiched between two layers of closed-cell foam, the splint can be bent into structural “C-curves” for strong, reliable support—then flattened out and reused as needed.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1477\" data-start=\"1313\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"\u003eIdeal for EMS, tactical medics, athletic trainers, wilderness rescue, disaster response, and any setting where compact, high-performance splinting is critical.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003eAcclaimed by emergency care providers and outdoor enthusiasts worldwide, the SAM\u003cstrong\u003e®\u003c\/strong\u003e Splint is based on an ancient physical principle: curves are strong. In the past, splints derived their strength from the materials from which they were constructed: metal, wood, plaster, etc. As a result they had to be heavy, bulky, and not easily adjustable to a wide variety of needs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"\u003eThe SAM\u003cstrong\u003e®\u003c\/strong\u003e Splint invokes a new paradigm: it is built from a thin, light core of aluminum alloy which is then sandwiched between two layers of closed-cell foam. Unroll it from its package and it is extremely pliable. But bend it into any of three simple curves, and it becomes extremely strong and supportive - adequate for stabilizing any fractured or injured limb. The secret lies in the physics of curved surfaces, the same physics that allow skyscrapers and bridges to be built of I-beams and hollow columns rather than heavy steel pillars. For splinting with the SAM\u003cstrong\u003e®\u003c\/strong\u003e Splint, you need only three basic curves. With these, you can convert a simple SAM\u003cstrong\u003e®\u003c\/strong\u003e Splint into something so strong that people have used it as an emergency canoe paddle and even a snow shovel. A well-formed SAM\u003cstrong\u003e®\u003c\/strong\u003e Splint is more than strong enough for any conceivable splinting need yet extremely moldable, and soft enough to cut with ordinary household scissors. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003eWith the proper choice of curves outlined in the training guide, almost any bone in the body can be splinted.
