Prosthetics Spectracarb Stockinette SpectraCarb Stockinette SpectraCarb is particularly beneficial when used on the inner layer of two-stage laminations. The unique properties of this material allow for superb strength, while maintaining some flexibility. Rigidity can be increased in appropriate areas by reinforcing with strips of carbon tape. SpectraCarb has already become a favourite for technicians and practitioners. Technicians appreciate that the material doe not itch, while practitioners love the heat-and-relieve characteristics that allow changes in the laminated device with use of a heat gun. SpectraCarb is most commonly used in lay-ups that alternate two layers of SpectraCarb with two layers of Comfort Multi-Size Nylon until desired thickness is achieved. Multi-Size Nylon is recommended for the inner and outer layers for a superb finish.

Carbon fibre has become common in the O&P industry and is used in many other industries where strength, stiffness, lightweight and outstanding fatigue characteristics are important. Aralon combines Kevlar and Nylon and provides superior impact and fatigue resistance. Aralon is 40% stronger than fibreglass, while weighing half as much. The strength-to-weight ratio is approximately 2½ times superior to fibreglass and it eliminates itching. Sold in 25 yard rolls.
