Supinator Strap
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, angle must be specified when ordering. Pictured here is a W-313 with Volar Pan Extension.
Tri-Glide Fastener & Double-Locking Velcro®
Benik has options to help secure our products from unwanted removal by patients. A nylon strap with a tri-glide fastener can be added. This style of closure is more difficult to remove than standard Velcro® straps once fastened. The tri-glide is most effective on supports with existing fasteners at the wrist. Specify sewn-down or removable when ordering.
Double-locking Velcro® is an alternative to a standard Velcro® closure on our BD-88 and RG-87 items. This is also referred to as sandwich Velcro®. It consists of a double-sided layer of loop Velcro® material sandwiched between two sides of hook Velcro®.
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.
