When stiffness is required as in intertarsal and tarsometatarsal arthritis, metatarsal stress fractures, sesamoiditis, hallux rigidus and turf toe, fillers in partial foot prostheses
This carbon fibre sheeting form was designed to offer the convenience of specific size and side fittings from one plate.
The plates are used for all shoe stiffening applications and for partial foot prostheses.
The contour of the plate was determined from an average contour of ten common low heeled shoes.
Foot plates cut from the sheet can be used as either an insert or incorporated into the shoe sole.
The carbon fibre material can be roughened to create an easily bondable surface for shoe modifications such as rockers.
DIRECTIONS
The insole from the desired shoe can be traced onto the carbon fibre plate and the pattern cut out via jigsaw with a metal cutting Footplate edges can be finished with fine sanding
For lamination into the shoe sole, both upper and lower plate surfaces are scored by sanding. Standard contact adhesive is used for EVA and similar soles
