Plastalume Finger Splints

When a finger is fractured, jammed, or recovering from a tendon injury, the right splint holds it in the position that lets it heal — and Plastalume has been a go-to name in orthopedic clinics and athletic training rooms for exactly that. This collection brings together their padded aluminum finger splints, specialty designs, and the popular Stax kit, so you can match the splint to the injury rather than force one shape to do everything.

Most Plastalume splints share the same proven construction: a malleable aluminum core bonded to soft foam padding. That combination lets a clinician bend the splint to the exact angle of immobilization needed, then trim and shape it for a snug, comfortable fit. The numbered splints — the 10702, 10704, 10705, 10706, and 10707 — step up through progressively longer and wider profiles, so smaller pinky fingers and larger thumbs each get proper coverage and support.

For specific injuries, the specialty shapes matter. The Baseball Finger Splint (11111) is curved to protect a mallet finger or a jammed fingertip common in ball sports, while the Frog Finger Splint (10801) uses a two-pronged design to immobilize a digit from both sides. If you're stocking a training kit or first-aid station, the Stax 30 Finger Splint Kit (10020) is a smart choice — it packs assorted sizes of beige plastic stax splints in a single-patient-use format, ready for mallet finger and distal joint injuries without needing separate orders for each size.

Buyers often ask which splint they need: as a rule, match the splint length to the segment of finger being immobilized, choose a stax-style splint for fingertip and DIP joint injuries, and reach for the frog or baseball designs when a curved or dual-sided hold is required. All are latex-conscious, easy to apply, and designed for reliable everyday use in clinics, sports settings, and home recovery.
