Essential release agent and surface conditioner for orthotic & prosthetic fabrication
Qaadir Petroleum Jelly (Vaseline) is a high-purity, professional-grade petroleum jelly supplied in a 1 kg workshop-size tub, specifically suited for daily use in orthotic and prosthetic (O&P) fabrication environments. Widely used as a release agent, surface barrier, and lubricant, it plays a critical role in plaster casting, lamination, thermoforming, and socket fabrication processes.
Designed for consistent performance, Qaadir Petroleum Jelly ensures clean separations, protects tools and molds, and supports efficient, repeatable fabrication workflows.
Key Features & Benefits
✔ Reliable Release AgentCreates an effective barrier between plaster, resins, foams, and tooling surfaces—preventing unwanted adhesion and enabling clean mold release.
✔ High-Purity, Stable FormulationSmooth, uniform consistency ensures even application without clumping, melting, or residue build-up under normal workshop temperatures.
✔ Large 1 kg Workshop TubEconomical bulk size ideal for busy fabrication labs, reducing frequent reordering and ensuring continuous availability at workstations.
✔ Multi-Purpose Workshop UtilityFunctions as a lubricant, surface conditioner, and protective coating for tools, molds, and hardware.
✔ Easy ApplicationApplies smoothly by hand, brush, or cloth and wipes off cleanly after use without damaging surfaces.
Applications in Orthotics & Prosthetics
Plaster Casting & Positive Models
Applied to skin, hair, or liners to prevent plaster adhesion
Used on positive molds to facilitate easy removal of plaster or foam shells
Prosthetic Socket Lamination
Acts as a release layer on molds and tooling
Helps prevent resin bonding to unwanted areas
Thermoforming & Vacuum Forming
Reduces friction between heated plastics and molds
Prevents sticking during forming and demolding
Tool & Equipment Maintenance
Lubricates bolts, threads, and moving parts
Protects metal surfaces from moisture and corrosion
Foam & Filler Work
Prevents foam expansion materials from sticking to tools or gloves
Facilitates clean shaping and finishing
Why It Matters in the Workshop
In O&P fabrication, small process details directly affect:
✔ mold quality✔ surface finish✔ fabrication time✔ tool lifespan✔ consistency between devices
Using a dependable petroleum jelly minimizes rework, reduces material waste, and protects both tools and technicians—making it a low-cost, high-impact essential.
