Ortho+E thermoplastic Semi-sticky

Versatile low temperature orthosis material, suitable for most applications . The ideal thermoplastic for many applications. Sticks slightly at processing temperature. Not directly adhesive, which means no unwanted welds are created and it is possible to make temporary connections. Similar to other non-adhesive thermoplastics.

Technical info:

- color: light beige
- maximum stretchability
- maximum deformability
- average elasticity
- maximum memory
- minimal stiffness
- good bond when heated dry
- becomes transparent when heated
- fairly smooth surface, good cleaning afterwards
- application: all body parts
- heating: in a warm water tank at 60 to 65° for 60 to 90 sec, becomes transparent

Per plate. We offer a range of low temperature thermoplastics and associated accessories. The thermoplastics have easy and reliable handling and formability. The heating takes place in a warm water bath at 60 to 65°C for 60 to 90 seconds. When the material is removed from the bath, the surface temperature drops quite quickly to 40°C, allowing the correct shape to be measured directly on the skin. After a few minutes the material starts to harden. When heated dry, a very good connection is possible. The material is RX permeable.

Perforations:
- None: smooth plate with maximum support, perfect for cleaning
- Micro: ±13%, many small holes, for more strength: choose a thicker plate
- Mini: scattered holes 3.5% perforation, the sheet remains approximately the same strength
- Opti: ±20%, multiple holes, optimal ventilation

Thicknesses:
- 1.6 mm: small splints such as for fingers, the hand and for children
- 2.0 mm: small splints that require a little more strength
- 2.5 mm: often used for static and dynamic splints for the hand and wrist
- 3.2 mm: suitable for larger splints
