Longer wrist support that fits either hand with the Vulkan Long Wrist Splint
The Vulkan Wrist Splint 2288 is the long version of the Vulkan wrist splint. It pairs a palmar stay under the wrist with flexible compression fabric and fits your right or left hand by moving the stay across.
Why You'll Love the Vulkan Wrist Splint 2288
- Longer coverage. The long length carries the support further along the forearm than the short 2182 splint.
- One splint, either hand. Move the palmar splint to switch sides. Tabs fasten at the top or bottom depending on the side.
- Support plus compression. Flexible compression supports the wrist and improves proprioception.
- Quick to put on. Rest your wrist on the stay, close the tabs and wrap the strap to secure.
Life with the Vulkan Wrist Splint 2288
When your wrist needs a bit more support, a longer splint spreads the hold along your forearm. Your fingers and thumb stay free for everyday jobs, and the wrap strap lets you set how snug it feels.
The Vulkan Wrist Splint 2288 in a nutshell
- Palmar stay: supports the wrist from underneath and moves to suit either hand.
- Flexible compression: nylon and latex fabric for support and better wrist awareness.
- Long length: more forearm coverage than the short version.
- Latex note: contains 30% latex, so it's not suitable if you are allergic to latex.
Choosing the right size
Sizing is by wrist circumference. Measure the wrist the splint is for, with the tape snug but not tight. The same splint fits either hand, so you only need to choose the size.
- Measure around the wrist. Wrap the tape around the wrist at the wrist crease and note the measurement in cm.
- Pick the size from the table below.
- Right on 16cm? That's where Small ends and Medium starts. Email us the measurement and we'll help you choose.
- Set the side. Move the palmar stay across to fit the right or left hand.
| Size | Wrist circumference |
| Small | 14-16cm |
| Medium | 16-18cm |
Is it the right wrist splint for you?
- A good fit: a wrist that needs support from underneath along more of the forearm, with the fingers and thumb left free.
- Not suitable if: you're allergic to latex. The fabric is 30% latex.
- Also consider: the short Vulkan Wrist Splint 2182 if you want a lower-profile splint.
This splint is listed for carpal tunnel syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, radial nerve palsy and wrist instability. Every wrist and every recovery is different, so we recommend speaking with your healthcare provider or hand therapist about whether this is the right option for you.
