THERMOPLASTIC HEAT MOLDABLE FOAM
Description:
Nickelplast is a high strength, expanded orthotic material. It is easy to form or stretch, and provides
excellent cushioning. It resists bottoming out and offers a resilient, rubbery quality not found in other
cross-linked polyethylene materials. Use where long wear, resilience and ease of fabrication are required.

- Aliplast is an improved, smooth surface, closed-cell polyethylene foam material. It has exceptional energy absorption, and may be quickly molded to body contours when heated. It is easily molded and sanded. Aliplast is auto-adhesive and impermeable to liquids and gases.
- Aliplast XPE is very firm, and absolutely resists long-term compression and bottoming out even in functional shoe orthotics.
- Heat moldable at temperatures between 250°F - 300°F. (MM thickness x 12 = heating time in seconds.)
