XT Composite Ice Semi-Rigid Foot Orthotic Blank (2.0mm)

Designed for use in the manufacture of Functional Foot Orthosis (FFO), the XT Composite Ice Semi-Rigid Foot Orthotic Blank (2.0mm) features a tough yet lightweight combination of carbon fibre and polypropylene with a semi-rigid 2.0mm thickness. It is ideal for combining with other materials to build a custom orthotic or surgical shoe for a patient who requires a moulded FFO and can be simply remoulded by re-heating, saving you money by making mistakes during the moulding process easy to fix.

What’s Included?

• 1 x Individual Orthosis Blank

As patients may require an FFO for just one foot, this item includes one FFO blank only.

Who Can Use the Carbon Fibre Orthotic Blank?

The Semi-Rigid Foot Orthotic Blank is designed specifically for use by podiatrists and healthcare professionals when building a custom functional foot orthosis. The FFO blank can be combined with other materials to offer the patient a custom FFO or insole that provides them with the joint realignment and stability that they need.

What’s the Benefit of a Carbon Fibre Blank?

The XT Foot Orthosis Blank is manufactured from carbon fibre and polypropylene for a strong yet lightweight orthotic. Unlike the heavy steel sole plates used in traditional surgical shoes, the carbon composite can be reheated and remoulded as required, and it will not creep or bottom out.

What Are the Advantages of XT Composite Orthotic Blanks?

Thanks to their rigid construction, XT composite blanks are ideal for use in the manufacture of deep heel cups that offer firm directional support. XT orthotic blanks can also be easily re-heated and re-moulded, saving you money by making it easy to fix any mistakes made during the moulding process.
