- Features balance of conformability and resistance to stretch
- Highest resistance to stretch in the Aquaplast family
- Water-based, non-stick coating, prevents accidental bonding
- 100% memory allows material to be reshaped and reheated
- Non-toxic, latex-free, and radiolucent
Key Material Benefits
Resilient is part of the Aquaplast family, the only Rolyan splinting family that turns transparent when heated and has 100 percent memory. It provides additional resistance to stretch as compared to the rest of the Aquaplast family, giving the clinician maximum control with additional splint strength.
Handling
Resistance to stretch: Maximum
Material does not stretch or deform when removed from splint bath, nor does it stretch unless it is pushed or pulled in a direction and then held until cool.
Conformability: Moderate
Conforms to surface contours and detail when some force is applied. Low degree of drape.
Memory: 100 percent
When reheated, the material “remembers” its original shape and returns to it. Allows for repeated reheating and reshaping for splint revisions.
Bonding: Coated
Available coated (Resilient-T)
Physical
Color: White
Thickness: Assorted
Available in the following sheet thicknesses: 1/8" (3.2 mm) and 1/16" (1.6 mm).
Perforations : Assorted
Available in 13 percent or solid material.
Appearance: Transparent when heated
Hardened Splint
Rigidity: Moderate/Maximum (64.5 kpsi*)
Retains shape without reinforcement.
Surface: Smooth
Resists fingerprints and markings if handled properly.
*Refers to Young’s Modulus testing value

Rolyan Resilient™ Coated Thermoplastic Splinting Material
Overview
Resilient™ is part of the Aquaplast™ family, with the same handling characteristics, however, Resilient has a higher resistance to stretch than Aquaplast Original or Aquaplast-T™. This gives the clinician more control over the material during splint fabrication, as the heated material will not stretch until force is applied. Available with and without coating, it is a versatile splinting material with high rigidity that is ideal for large and lower extremity splints.
Rolyan Spectrum of Splinting Material
Rolyan provides therapists and clinicians the largest spectrum of hand therapy products and care. Rolyan empowers every therapist with the passion to mold and shape their patients’ recovery.
Heating Instructions
The recommended method for heating splinting materials is with hot water in a splint bath.
Only use a heat gun for spot-heating and adjustments.

Note: Overheating splinting materials increases the draping/stretching characteristics; allow material to cool slightly before handling to avoid excess stretching.
Indications
Splinting materials are intended to be used for fabrication of custom-molded rigid splints, orthoses, and adaptive equipment.
Best uses include:
- Elbow splints
- Dynamic splints
- Foot drop splints
- Splints for spasticity
- Splints for burns
- Back supports
- Knee splints for immobilization
- Serial static splints
- Shoulder splints
- Foot orthotics
- Ankle stirrup splints
Care & Cleaning
Store at temperatures between 40° and 90°F (4° and 32°C) and less than 65 percent relative humidity. Avoid prolonged exposure to light, especially ultraviolet. Avoid exposure to corrosive and ethylene oxide fumes.
Formed splints will lose their shape in temperatures over 135°F(57°C) and should be kept away from sources of heat such as ovens, hot water, and car windows.
Clean splint with soap and lukewarm water. Allow splint and straps to dry thoroughly before reapplication.
Precautions for finished orthoses
Splint adjustments are to be made only by a health care professional, who is responsible for providing wearing instructions and precautions to other practitioners, care providers and the patient. If unusual swelling, skin discoloration or discomfort occurs, discontinue use and consult a health care professional.
