Orficast Thermoplastic Tape is a lightweight, moldable casting tape used to create custom-fitted splints and orthoses directly on the patient. Clinicians heat the tape in a warm-water bath or with a heat gun until pliable, then cut, wrap, and contour it around fingers, the hand, or the wrist for a low-profile fit. The breathable mesh conforms closely, bonds to itself when activated, and can be reheated to fine-tune the fit as swelling changes. Its quick working and hardening times support fast fabrication in clinics, emergency departments, and rehabilitation settings when a dependable, adjustable splint is needed.
