STS Introduces Knee Casting Sleeve
The Knee Casting Sleeve from STS enables the
practitioner to obtain an accurate model of the thigh, knee, and
leg quickly and easily without the mess of traditional plaster of
Paris. The finished mold is ideal for fabricating custom knee
braces or KAFOs.
The unique double fiberglass tubular design allows accurate
molding of the various contours of the lower extremity from thigh
to ankle. A small pair of scissors can be used; no cast saw
required. The mold cures usually within five or six minutes and is
easily filled to make a positive. The glass-smooth exterior can
also be scanned by most CAD systems.
Two sizes are available: small (800-S) for thigh circumferences
of less than 24 inches and large (800-L) for greater than 24
inches. The knee casting sleeves are supplied in boxes of five.
