Orthotic Silicone A+B

ORTHOTICA SILICONE A + B

The ORTHOTICA silicone A + B is a room-temperature vulcanizing silicone elastomer in paste form, composed of two components (A + B) which, when mixed, generate an elastic, resistant and high-hardness material.

It is especially designed for the manufacture of custom orthoses, allowing perfect adaptation to the patient’s anatomy and providing great stability and durability.

Thanks to its high hardness (Shore A 35-36), it is ideal for the manufacture of corrective orthoses, as well as for the treatment of pressure areas, friction, bunions, fifth toe or forefoot.

In addition, its formulation with medicinal oils improves comfort and tolerance, making it suitable for patients of all ages, including children.

INDICATIONS:

• Manufacture of orthoses and orthoplasties.
• Corrective orthoses.
• Reduction of pressure and friction.
• Interdigital separators.
