Description
The Qadam Carbon Rigid Shell is a heat-mouldable carbon graphite orthotic designed for O&P clinicians and technicians who require maximum functional support, strong rearfoot control, and a durable low-bulk shell for custom or semi-custom orthotic fabrication. Supplied as an orthotic blank, it can be moulded over a positive cast or shaped directly to the patient’s foot, giving clinics and workshops flexibility in fitting and production.
With a 25mm heel cup, the Qadam Carbon Rigid Shell provides firm heel containment, rearfoot stability, and enhanced control during standing, walking, and weight-bearing activity. Its rigid carbon graphite construction makes it suitable for patients who need a stronger orthotic platform, while still allowing heat adjustment and professional workshop finishing.
For orthotic workshops, podiatry services, rehabilitation centres, and O&P clinics, this shell is easy to grind, trim, and finish, helping technicians produce clean, precise, and patient-specific devices. Its combination of rigidity, lightweight carbon graphite construction, and mouldability makes it a practical choice for functional orthotic care where firm support and reliable alignment control are required.
