Product Description
Carbon NRG Contoured Plates - Rocker Design
Carbon NRG Contoured Plates are high-performance orthotic components designed to offer rigid support for a variety of foot conditions, such as Turf Toe or hallux rigidus. Made from a combination of carbon and glass fibres within a durable polyolefin matrix, these plates limit motion and offer exceptional strength without adding unnecessary weight. Their rocker design provides optimal biomechanical assistance by redistributing pressure, aiding in gait correction, and ensuring comfortable foot movement for patients.
Key Features
- High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: The plates are crafted using high-performance graphite, providing strength and durability while remaining lightweight. This allows for maximum support without compromising on comfort.
- Resilient Design: The NRG plates maintain their shape and structural properties, even after extended use under high-load conditions, making them ideal for patients who require durable, long-term orthotic solutions.
- Easy to Shape and Bond: The material is easily adjustable using heat (recommended temperature: 210°-250°C), making it convenient for orthotists to customize according to patient needs. Additionally, the plates bond well with conventional adhesives, simplifying the assembly process.
- Rocker Design for Motion Control: The contoured, rocker shape aids in redistributing pressure during movement, offering biomechanical support and reducing strain on the foot's metatarsals, especially for patients with gait-related issues.
- Versatile Application: These plates are suitable for a variety of orthotic applications, including treatment for hallux rigidus, metatarsalgia, and other motion-limiting conditions. The design can be used in both custom and off-the-shelf orthotics.
Available Thicknesses
The Carbon NRG Contoured Plates are available in different thicknesses, providing varying levels of flexibility and rigidity to meet specific patient needs. The following table outlines the available thicknesses:
Rigidity | Thickness |
---|---|
Semi-Flex | 1.8mm |
Semi-Rigid | 2.3mm |
Rigid | 2.8mm |
Applications
The Carbon NRG Contoured Plates are ideal for patients requiring restricted motion due to conditions like hallux rigidus, Turf Toe, or metatarsalgia. The plates are commonly used by orthotists to enhance the functionality of custom orthotics and off-the-shelf insoles. Their durability, customisability, and high resilience make them a preferred choice for those requiring long-term motion control and foot support.
Carbon NRG Contoured Plates offer a durable, high-performance solution for patients needing rigid orthotic support. Their rocker design ensures comfort and biomechanical correction, while the various thickness options provide flexibility in customising support levels for specific conditions. These plates are easy to work with, ensuring that healthcare professionals can efficiently fit and customize them to meet individual patient needs.
