Sam Splint, 36", Orange & Blue

Recently I broke my wrist while running (llama and snake incident). I was able to hike back to the trailhead with my wrist up in the air, then drive home, then screamed out what I needed to my husband who grabbed a SAM splint from my hiking pack, fashioned it to give stability plus pulled out a sling, and only then we could think about acetaminophen, calling the doctor, getting a bag of ice. I keep one of these in each of my hiking packs, never thought I'd need one while running, and I couldn't have folded it myself as I was in such pain, but it's still better to have one than not. These things are so versatile, and SO sturdy.

The SAM Rolled Splint has proven to be an invaluable addition to my emergency preparedness kit. Measuring 36 inches, it’s long enough to be used for a variety of injuries, whether it’s a sprained wrist or a fractured leg. The splint is incredibly versatile—it can be easily molded to fit different body parts, providing strong support while remaining lightweight and compact. The orange and blue colors are not just aesthetically pleasing but also functional, making it easy to distinguish and locate in an emergency situation. I particularly appreciate how the splint is reusable and can be cut to size if needed, which adds to its overall utility. Despite its flexibility, it provides excellent stability once formed around the injury and secured with bandages or wraps. One minor consideration is that, like all splints, you’ll need to have something on hand to secure it, such as tape or bandages, but that’s standard with this type of product. And for a little humor: Why don’t splints play poker? Because they always fold! In summary, the SAM Rolled Splint is a must-have for any first aid kit, outdoor adventure gear, or emergency preparedness setup. It’s durable, easy to use, and provides reliable support when you need it most, making it an essential tool for managing injuries.

Thank goodness I haven’t had to use this splint yet, but I know how they work, and this is a quality brand — so I have no doubt it will perform exactly as it should. I keep one in my bug-out bag and another in my prepping cabinet. Living in a very rural area, it’s important to be prepared for any kind of accident since I’m quite a distance from an emergency room. Having gear like this just makes good common sense. This is definitely one of those items that belongs in every first aid kit or bug-out bag.

SAM splint is the best for immobilize extremities with you don't have a cast close by or you are in the middle of no where. Versatil ways of use.

This is legitimate SAM splint. If you need it, now you know. If you know, I hope you never have to use it. Mine live in my bags, they make really good foundations at the bottom of a bad to keep things in place. They also keep bones in place good. Make sure you know how to use it, then keep it with you. Remember, two is one, and one is none.

Nice splint and easy to bend

Must have for your go bag

We love Sam splints! The roll just needs to be cut to the length needed. We use it on goat and sheep injuries and weak legs.
