Orfit® Classic

Resistance to Stretch

• Minimum to Moderate resistance to stretch
• Allows the splintmaker to easily stretch and wrap material.

Drape

• Maximum drape.
• Ideal for creating intricate shapes and contours.
• When warm, transparency allows proper alignment and visual monitoring over anatomical landmarks.

Memory

• 100% memory.
• Material will return to its original shape and size when reheated. Ideal for novice splinters.

Rigidity

• Moderate rigidity.
• Molded material splints flex slightly with force, especially the perforated, thinner materials.
• Circumferential splints increase rigidity.

Bonding

• Uncoated material. Provides a very sticky surface when warm and bonds without the need for solvents.
• Sticks easily to itself. Use as bonding agent to attach outriggers or other accessories to splint.
• Use as a bonding agent to attach outriggers or other accessories to a splint or a permanent bond, apply dry heat to the surface until shiny and attach accessories directly to the material. 
• Wet bonds can be released in warm water if necessary. 
• For easier handling, add liquid soap to water and keep thermoplastic damp while molding. 
• Handling instructions are included. 

Surface Finish

• Resists fingerprints and other pressure marks.
• Leaves smooth, self sealing edges when cut warm.
• A variety of thicknesses and perforations make Orfit® exceptionally versatile.

Applications

• Choose thicker, smooth materials for large splints, lower extremity positioning, back supports and shoulder splints.
• Choose thinner, perforated materials for lightweight, circumferential hand and finger splints, gauntlet style splints and pediatric splints.
• Turns translucent when warm, allowing observation of landmarks and pressure-sensitive areas.

Working time (1/8")

• Allows five to six minutes to form and harden after softening in 150° (66º C) water.
