Renia Ortec High-Performance Polychloroprene Contact Adhesive 

Renia Ortec is a premium, high-performance adhesive designed specifically for the demands of orthotic and prosthetic manufacturing. This adhesive is widely recognized in the industry for its exceptional bonding strength, versatility, and user-friendly application, making it the adhesive of choice for professionals who demand reliability and precision.

With Renia Ortec, you can be confident in the durability and performance of your orthotic and prosthetic devices. Whether you're bonding EVA, rubber, leather, or various types of plastics, Renia Ortec delivers consistent results that ensure the longevity and functionality of your products.

Key Features

1. Versatile Application

Renia Ortec is engineered to bond a wide range of materials commonly used in the orthotics and prosthetics industry. These include:

  • EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate): Widely used for cushioning in orthotic insoles and prosthetic liners.
  • Rubber: Often used in the manufacture of soles and other durable components.
  • Leather: Common in custom orthotic devices for its comfort and durability.
  • Thermoplastics and Polyurethanes: Essential for creating rigid and semi-rigid orthotic shells and prosthetic sockets.

This versatility makes Renia Ortec an all-in-one adhesive solution, reducing the need to stock multiple types of adhesives for different materials.

2. Exceptional Bonding Strength

One of the standout features of Renia Ortec is its high initial tack and strong final bond. This adhesive ensures that components stay securely in place during both the assembly process and throughout the life of the orthotic or prosthetic device. The bond is resistant to shear forces, which is crucial for devices subjected to repetitive stress and movement.

3. Flexible and Durable

Renia Ortec remains flexible even after curing, which is essential for applications where the bonded materials need to flex and move with the wearer. This flexibility prevents cracking and separation, ensuring that the bond remains intact even under continuous use. Moreover, the adhesive is highly durable, resisting degradation from environmental factors such as moisture and temperature fluctuations.

4. Easy Application and Quick Setting

This adhesive is user-friendly, with an easy application process that suits both large-scale manufacturing and smaller, custom fabrication tasks. Renia Ortec features a quick setting time, allowing for faster production cycles without compromising on bond strength. Depending on the environmental conditions and materials, the adhesive typically sets within minutes, enabling prompt handling and further processing.

5. Safe and Reliable

Renia Ortec is formulated to be safe for use in professional settings. It has low volatile organic compound (VOC) content, making it less harmful to the environment and safer for technicians who use it regularly. Its formulation is designed to minimize health risks while maximizing adhesive performance.

Applications

Renia Ortec is ideally suited for a variety of applications within the orthotics and prosthetics fields:

1. Orthotic Device Fabrication

Renia Ortec is used extensively in the creation of custom orthotic devices. It effectively bonds EVA to various materials, ensuring that insoles and other supportive components adhere properly without losing their shape or functionality. The adhesive is also perfect for bonding top covers, cushioning layers, and rigid shells, ensuring that the final product is both comfortable and durable.

2. Prosthetic Limb Assembly

In prosthetic manufacturing, Renia Ortec is utilized for bonding components such as liners, sockets, and padding materials. Its ability to bond different materials securely makes it invaluable in creating prosthetics that can withstand the rigors of daily use. The adhesive's flexibility ensures that prosthetic limbs can move naturally with the wearer, enhancing comfort and usability.

3. Shoe Repair and Custom Footwear

Beyond orthotics and prosthetics, Renia Ortec is also popular in the shoe repair industry and custom footwear manufacturing. Its strong bond and flexible nature make it ideal for repairing soles, attaching insoles, and securing various footwear components. Custom footwear makers also rely on Renia Ortec for creating shoes that are tailored to the specific needs of their clients.

4. Podiatry Clinics and Laboratories

Podiatrists and technicians in clinical settings frequently use Renia Ortec for in-house orthotic adjustments and repairs. Its quick setting time allows for rapid modifications, ensuring that patients receive their custom orthotics or prosthetics without long waiting periods. This efficiency is particularly important in busy clinics where turnaround time is critical.

Instructions for Use

1. Surface Preparation

For the best results, ensure that all surfaces to be bonded are clean, dry, and free from dust, oils, and other contaminants. Light sanding of the surfaces may be necessary to enhance adhesion, particularly when working with smooth or glossy materials.

2. Application of Adhesive

Apply Renia Ortec evenly to both surfaces using a brush or spatula. Ensure that the adhesive is spread thinly but fully covers the bonding area. Allow the adhesive to dry until it becomes tacky to the touch. This typically takes around 5 to 10 minutes, but the time may vary depending on the ambient temperature and humidity.

3. Bonding

Once the adhesive has reached the tacky stage, carefully align the materials and press them together firmly. Apply uniform pressure across the bonded area to ensure a strong initial tack. For best results, use a roller or clamp to apply consistent pressure during the initial bonding phase.

4. Curing

Allow the bond to cure fully before subjecting the assembly to any stress. Renia Ortec typically cures within 24 hours under normal conditions, after which the bond reaches its maximum strength. Avoid exposing the bonded materials to extreme temperatures or moisture during the curing process to ensure optimal results.

Safety and Handling

  • Ventilation: Always work in a well-ventilated area when using Renia Ortec to minimize inhalation of fumes.
  • Protective Gear: Wear appropriate protective equipment, such as gloves and safety glasses, to avoid skin and eye contact.
  • Storage: Store the adhesive in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources, to prolong its shelf life.
  • Disposal: Dispose of any unused adhesive and containers in accordance with local regulations. Avoid releasing the product into the environment.

Renia Ortec stands out as a top choice for professionals in the orthotics and prosthetics industry due to its unparalleled bonding strength, flexibility, and ease of use. Whether you're fabricating custom orthotics, assembling prosthetic limbs, or working on shoe repairs, Renia Ortec delivers reliable performance that meets the highest standards of quality. Trust Renia Ortec for your adhesive needs and experience the difference in every bond.
