Description
The nora® Schweizer Puffergummi expanded rubber sheet – 81 black is a premium low-density cushioning material designed for orthopedic footwear, prosthetics, and orthotic applications where maximum shock absorption and high resilience are required. With its very low hardness and excellent restoration capability, Puffergummi provides outstanding walking comfort while maintaining dimensional stability under repeated load.
This expanded rubber material combines superior shock absorption with high elastic recovery, allowing it to compress under impact and quickly return to its original shape. This makes it ideal for heel cushioning, shock absorbing layers, and comfort inserts in orthopedic shoes, prosthetic components, and rehabilitation devices.
Due to its low density and high flexibility, Schweizer Puffergummi is particularly suitable for applications where strong damping performance is required without adding excessive weight.
