Orfit® Classic, Soft, 18" X 24" X 1/12", Maxi-Perforated

Orfit Classic Soft thermoplastic splinting material is a maxi-perforated sheet for creating orthoses. It fits clinics and fabrication settings that need a material that sticks to itself and outrigger attachments during forming, then bonds permanently with dry heat. This Soft version is sized 18 inch x 24 inch x 1/12 inch and is made for accurate molding around anatomic contours.

Good Fit For

• Orthosis fabrication in clinical settings
• Shaping around detailed anatomic contours
• Workflows that use outrigger attachments
• Projects ranging from very small to very large orthoses

Key Features

• Soft Orfit Classic material supports accurate molding around anatomic contours
• Non-coated surface sticks easily to itself and to outrigger attachments during fabrication
• Temporary bonding during fabrication becomes permanent when exposed to dry heat
• Material turns transparent when ready for molding for better visibility during fabrication
• Maxi-perforated sheet helps buyers select the specific perforation style needed
• Suitable for creating very small to very large orthoses

Applications and Usage

• Fabricating custom orthoses from a thermoplastic sheet
• Molding material around anatomic contours where a softer stretch profile is preferred
• Building orthoses that require temporary tack during setup and permanent bonding with dry heat
• Monitoring readiness during heating by watching for the material to turn transparent

Packaging and Handling

• Packaging: EA.
• This is the Soft version, intended for increased stretch rather than the added support of the Stiff version
• Bonding changes with heat: temporary during fabrication and permanent when exposed to dry heat
• Choose the maxi-perforated format when that perforation pattern matches your fabrication preference
