Multifit NS®
Multifit NS is user-friendly for the fabrication of all types of orthoses. From a static wrist orthosis to a complex dynamic orthosis: Multifit NS can address all of your fabrication needs across pathologies and across patients while offering maximum ease of use.
Why Choose Multifit NS?
The material naturally conforms to the patient’s limb, enhancing comfort and minimizing pressure points, while its strong, stable support boosts patient confidence and compliance. Multifit NS offers excellent drapability during molding but turns very rigid once formed. A unique combination of properties that are rarely found together.
Making a wrist splint with Multifit NS. It is a very interesting material. It’s lightweight, easy to shape and has a matte finish.
Material Characteristics
- Latex-free: Safe for patients with latex allergies.
- Minimal bonding: The material only sticks when the coating is deliberately removed, reducing the chance of accidental adhesion.
- No memory: Maintains its molded shape well while remainnig adaptable through reheating with hot water or spotheating with a heat gun.
- Excellent drapability when activated: The material conforms naturally using gravity, requiring minimal pressure during molding, making it ideal for patients suffering from hypersensitivity.
- At 65°C temperature it handles as a rigid product, moldable against gravity. At 70°C or more, it becomes a drapey product.
- Low resistance to stretch: Enables easy and precise shaping without excessive effort.
- High conformability: Allows for effortless molding to even small anatomical contours.
- Extended working time: Offers clinicians ample time for accurate positioning and refinement.
- Non-stick coating: Prevents accidental bonding and enables molding directly over bandages or cotton linings.
- Natural conformity: Gravity-assisted draping results in a close and comfortable fit, reducing pressure points.
- Stable and secure support: High rigidity after setting increases the patient’s feeling of security and enhances compliance.
- Precise fit: Reduces unwanted movement and ensures effective immobilization, leading to better therapeutic outcomes.
