6 Modification
The orthosis is made from polyamide PA12. Grinders and heat may be used to make small adjust­
ments to the orthosis.
NOTICE
Note that the heat during the flaring or grinding may cause permanent discoloration.
Prior to making adjustments, the lining of the orthosis needs to be removed in order to avoid
damage to the material that may be caused by the high temperature of the heat gun.
Heat flaring
• Material properties:
Glass transition temperature : 50 °C (122 °F), Melting temperature: 175 °C (347 °F)
• Recommended tools:
Heat gun at medium setting, round metal anvil, driving hammer
1) Heat the inner and outer surfaces of the orthosis with the heat gun until the material becomes
malleable.
→ Make sure that orthosis is heated over a large surface area and that the heat is never loc­
alized. If the material is overheated it may become discolored.
→ The surface temperature of the plastic should be heated to between 70 °C (158 °F) and
95 °C (203 °F). This process should take approximately 5 to 8 minutes.
2) Reshape the malleable material on the anvil. If necessary, a hammer can be used to apply
pressure.
3) Let the orthosis cool down fully.
