Tynor Air Ankle Splint D40 | Inflatable Air Pad Ankle Support
The Tynor Air Ankle Splint (D-40) is a rigid, air-cushioned ankle immobiliser designed to assist ankle stability by limiting side-to-side (inversion/eversion) movement to help reduce the risk of further injury. A durable polypropylene outer shell delivers a high level of immobilisation, while inflatable PVC air pads on either side mould to the ankle and provide adjustable compression — tailored with the included hand pump — without creating pressure points. A cushiony heel piece and lateral hook-and-loop straps complete a secure, comfortable fit. Fits either ankle. One universal size.

ⓘ Important: This is a Level 5/5 immobilisation splint with inflatable pads. Air-pad pressure, strap tension and duration of use should follow the advice of a qualified healthcare professional — enough to immobilise without restricting blood flow.
Use under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional. Inflate the pads enough to immobilise the ankle without impairing circulation.
How to Use
- Unfasten the hook-and-loop closures.
- Place the deflated air pads inside the splint shells.
- Rest the foot on the heel piece so the shells sit snugly around the ankle.
- Adjust the splint so the bony prominences of your ankle fit into the corresponding depressions.
- Secure the straps for a snug, comfortable fit — firm but not too tight.
- Use the provided hand pump to inflate the air pads on either side of the ankle.
- To release pressure, deflate the pads using the pin on the air-bulb nozzle.
