Flax fibre fabric
Ottobock flax fibres for TT and TF sockets are a sustainable alternative to carbon fibres. They are easy to model and do not require any additional tools or methods. The fibres are available in a combination of unidirectional and bidirectional fabrics, tapes and tubes for different requirements for the stability and strength of the socket. Ottobock flax fibres are processed in a similar way to carbon and can be combined with nearly all Ottobock resins. We recommend using OrthoEpox GreenLine resin 617HG5 to produce a particularly sustainable laminate. Our tested layout plan 646T786 explains in detail how our flax fibres are processed in combination with a lamination disc or a lamination anchor to create a secure socket. No further training in material processing is required.
