X-Lite® is an airy and lightweight Low Temperature Thermoplastic material engineered to meet your splinting, bracing and casting demands. The material is made from a 100% cotton mesh that has been impregnated with a non-toxic thermoplastic resin. All reactive substances in the thermoplastic have been cured, which means it does not contain any residues in unreacted form.
X-Lite Classic is the original X-Lite® material. The large mesh openings give great ventilation. As the strongest material in our range, you can use it for any cast or splint of your choice. With its open structure, it is the airiest of the three materials. It stretches and conforms well to contours for a perfect fit. X-Lite Classic comes in sheets, dispenser box and rolls. The rolls have a plastic separator you remove during the working process. Choose between rolls and sheets in the sizes below.
