Fabrication Enterprises Orfit® Classic, Stiff, 18" X 24" X 1/8", Non-Perforated

Orfit® Classic, Stiff, 18" X 24" X 1/8", Non-Perforated

Orfit Classic stiff thermoplastic sheet is a non-perforated splinting material in an 18 inch x 24 inch x 1/8 inch format. This option fits fabrication settings that need added support and strength for larger orthoses while still allowing self-bonding during fabrication. The material is non-coated, turns transparent when ready for molding, and bonds permanently with dry heat.

Good Fit For

• Orthosis fabrication requiring added support and strength
• Workflows that use outrigger attachments
• Very small to very large orthoses

Key Features

• Stiff Orfit Classic material offers increased support and strength for larger orthoses
• Non-perforated sheet gives you the solid material format for this specific build preference
• Non-coated surface sticks easily to itself and to outrigger attachments during fabrication
• Material bonds temporarily while shaping, then bonds permanently when exposed to dry heat
• Turns transparent when ready for molding to improve visibility during fabrication
• 18 inch x 24 inch x 1/8 inch sheet works for a wide range of orthosis fabrication needs

Applications and Usage

• Fabricating larger orthoses where added strength is important
• Shaping orthotic material while monitoring contours as the sheet turns transparent
• Building orthoses that require temporary bonding during fabrication and permanent bonding with dry heat
• Attaching and bonding sections of material to themselves or to outrigger attachments

Packaging and Handling

• Packaging: EA.
• This is the stiff version, intended where greater support and strength are preferred over higher stretch
• Permanent bonding occurs with dry heat, which may matter for your fabrication process
• The sheet is non-perforated, so buyers comparing airflow or weight preferences may want to confirm this format

FAQ

• Is this the stiff or soft version of Orfit Classic? This sheet is the stiff version. The stiff option is intended to offer increased support and strength for larger orthoses.
• What size is this Orfit Classic sheet? This sheet measures 18 inch x 24 inch x 1/8 inch.
• Is the sheet perforated? No. This version is non-perforated.
• How does the material bond during fabrication? Orfit Classic material sticks easily to itself and to outrigger attachments. It bonds temporarily during fabrication and then permanently when exposed to dry heat.
• How can I tell when the material is ready for molding? When the material is ready for molding, it turns transparent. That visibility can help during the fabrication process.
