Benik offers an extensive line of wrist supports to meet the varying needs of your patients.

Thermoplastic Options
Combine the support of a custom-molded thermoplastic splint with the aesthetics and comfort of terry-lined neoprene through our patented adhering process. Choose from one of our stock W-200 and W-300 series thermoplastic splints or add thermoplastic where additional support is desired. When heated in a microwave or with an iron or hydrocollator, Benik's thermoplastic splints and components can be shaped for a custom fit. Thermoplastic supports may be reheated and reformed as needed.
Custom Thermoplastic Options
If a patient requires something other than what our stock thermoplastic splints have to offer, custom thermoplastic options may be specified. Thermoplastic can be added to most of Benik's products. Please refer to the pictures below to see the most commonly requested thermoplastic options and refer to the chart below for availability.
To order something not pictured, please provide us with a tracing of the hand, and outline the desired coverage area on both the dorsal and volar sides.

Supinator Strap
A supinator strap may be used in combination with many of our hand and wrist splints if supination of the affected limb is desired. Inquire about this option when ordering.
Wrist Flexion
Benik's thermoplastic 300 Series wrist supports can be molded to provide wrist flexion of 30 degrees from full extension. If a greater degree of flexion is desired, the support can be custom designed to allow the support to be molded to angles of more than 30 degrees. Desired angle must be specified when ordering. Pictured here is a W-313 with Volar Pan Extension.
NOTE: Follow Custom Sizing directions and ensure "E" measurement is taken on the dorsal side of the hand.
Tri-Glide Fastner
A nylon strap with a tri-glide fastener can be utilized to help prevent pediatric patients from removing a wrist support when a child is able to unfasten a Velcro® attachment. The tri-glide is most effective on supports with existing fastners at the wrist. Contact us for availability or more information.
Pediatric Finger Tubes
Available as an option that may be used with a number of Benik's pediatric wrist supports. Individual Finger Tubes assist in supporting the DIP and PIP joints of each digit. Velcro® attachment to the dorsal side of the hand allow for adjustable extension. The Finger Tubes may be trimmed to provide better fit and desired support. Learn more ...
