Considerations ~

• All ovens vary in performance. It is recommended that the fabricator establishes a Heating/Time Schedule specific to the thickness and sizes of material being used in their ovens. Always record your successes and failures for your future reference.
• Its flexibility is desirable for specific Prosthetic “Flexible Liner” applications.
• Beige color is available.
• This material is “Earth Friendly” in the fact that it will eventually decompose. It’s impact resistance and forming capabilities to your plaster models is desirable. A pre-heated cast can increase the performance of your “Flexible Liner”. The reduced cooling rate will strengthen the material. You must achieve specified forming temperatures when processing. Always use a laser thermometer to assure the material has reached its forming temperature.
• Remember that the surface temperature of the material can be warmer than its core. Establishing your material-oven time frames to acquire the material’s core forming temperature is critical to your success.
• This thermoplastic material is commonly used in Prosthetic applications when slightly less rigidity is required.
• These thermoplastics are extruded in Belgium and have been used primarily in prosthetic socket applications for decades. The wide range of flexibility offers your lab a material for the majority of prosthetic applications. There are also Orfitrans thermoplastics available for Orthotic applications.
