THE VETERINARY SAM SPLINT IS STRONGER AND MORE DURABLE FOR ANIMALS
The Veterinary SAM Splint
The Veterinary SAM Splint is a lightweight, flexible splint. The Veterinary SAM Splint is built from a thin core of aluminum alloy, sandwiched between two layers of closed-cell foam. The aluminum core in the veterinary version is twice as thick as in the regular SAM Splint. The Veterinary SAM Splint is extremely pliable. Bent into any of three simple curves, it becomes extremely strong and supportive for any fractured or injured limb.
The SAM Splint is based on an ancient construction principle: curves are strong
SAM stands for structural, aluminum, and malleable. The splint is exceptionally pliable and when bent into a simple curve, it becomes strong and supportive for any fractured or injured limb. The splint is extremely moldable, and soft enough to cut with ordinary household scissors.
Use of the SAM Splint in veterinary medicine
The Veterinary SAM Splint is a radiolucent immobilization device, well accepted for use in humans and has been carefully evaluated and improved to meet the unique requirements of veterinary medicine.
