This enhanced version of the classic SAM® Splint features greater padding and increased rigidity, offering superior support and protection in demanding environments.
Ideal for EMS professionals, athletic trainers, and military medics, this splint combines a heavy-duty aluminum core with dual-density closed-cell foam, delivering both flexibility and strength. It remains soft and compact until curved, at which point it becomes strong enough to stabilize injured arms, legs, or joints.

The SAM® Splint 36" Orange/Blue XL is a rugged, high-visibility tool that provides superior limb support and flexibility in the most challenging emergency situations.
Features:
- STRENGTH IN CURVES - SAM® Splint leverages the revolutionary C-Curve™ Principle to mold its foam and aluminum layers into structural arcs, strong enough for pre- or post-cast care, while remaining lighter and more transportable than traditional splints that rely on heavy, rigid materials. Bend it back into its original form to stow away or remold for a separate injury.
- ENGINEERED FOR VERSATILE SUPPORT SAM® Splint is lightweight, flexible, and requires only wrap or tape to provide the necessary strength to support any fractured or injured limb.
- RADIOLUCENT MATERIAL - All material are radiolucent, except the buckle's two stainless steel springs, allowing for X-ray and CT-scans without removal.
- WEATHER RESISTANT - Designed to function across the spectrum of global temperatures - from the Sahara to Mt. Everest
- CUT-TO-SIZE - SAM® Splint two layers of closed-cell foam and its luminum interioir can be cut with ordinary scissor to adapt to any size requirements.
- MOLDABLE ALUMINUM - Flat O-temper aluminum inside the splint's outer layers bend easily, allowing for a spectrum of applications.
- CLEANABLE EXTERIOR - Exterior closed-pore foam can be cleaned and disenfected with bleach and water for reuse.
