Description
The nora® Astral H heel piece strips – 81 black are hard, highly resilient rubber strips designed for orthopedic footwear, shoe repair, and prosthetic applications where durable heel replacement and reliable wear resistance are required. Manufactured from the same high-quality material as the nora® Astral H heel sheets, these strips feature a 62 medium crepe profile, providing excellent grip, flexibility, and long service life.
Thanks to their high hardness and strong elastic recovery, Astral H heel strips are ideal for economical heel repair and replacement, especially in orthopedic shoes and high-wear footwear. The crepe profile improves traction while maintaining comfort during walking, and the material bonds securely using standard footwear adhesives.
Supplied in convenient strip widths, Astral H heel pieces allow efficient workshop use with minimal waste, making them ideal for shoe repair shops, orthopedic technicians, and prosthetic workshops.
