Multicast Ortho

Multicast Ortho is a low-temperature thermoplastic with enhanced processing characteristics such as transparency and maximum drape.

Multicast Ortho is an exceptionally versatile thermoplastic material that offers the advantages of transparency when heated.

 

Characteristics of Multicast Ortho:

  • Turns clear when heated - then opaque when cooled
  • Has maximum drape
  • Possibility of vertical (anti-gravity) positioning
  • Bounds without need for solvents
  • Resists fingerprints and other pressure marks
  • Lower processing temperature than standard Multicast



Application of Multicast Ortho:

  1. To soften material, place it into a water bath at 60 - 65°C (140 - 149°F) for 2 minutes or until sufficiently soft.

  2. When ready, remove from the water and lay on a flat, preferably wooden surface.

  3. Wait a few seconds (until bearably warm) and apply onto the patient.

 

Typical Applications:

GOOD for Ankle brace

VERY GOOD for finger, wrist, metacarpus splint, tibia, knee and lower back brace

IDEAL for nose and body splints
