Orthoplastics Starter Kit

The ideal kit to familiarize yourself with Herbitas silicone products!

Tips for Best Results:

• Avoid Direct Contact with Silicone: Never dip your hands into the silicone pot when making an orthosis. The catalyst on your hands can damage the silicone inside the pot.
• Avoid Powdered Gloves: Never use powdered gloves when making an orthosis, as the powder can interfere with the curing process.
• Control Temperature: Ensure the silicone doesn't get too warm, as this can make it sticky and difficult to handle.
• Check Catalyst Freshness: If the silicone isn't curing properly, the catalyst might have expired. The catalyst has a shelf life of around 6 months. Keep it tightly sealed and store it away from heat sources. Tip: Store your catalyst in the fridge to extend its lifespan.
