Description
The Qadam Proformance Rigid Shell is a heat-mouldable orthotic blank designed for O&P clinicians and technicians who require strong functional control, durable support, and efficient workshop finishing. Made from the same material as the Qadam Thermofit range and finished to resemble graphite, it provides a professional-looking shell for custom and semi-custom orthotic fabrication.
With a 25mm heel cup, the Qadam Proformance Rigid Shell helps provide firm rearfoot containment, heel stability, and improved control during walking, standing, and daily weight-bearing activity. It can be moulded over a positive cast or directly to the patient’s foot, giving clinicians flexibility across both traditional cast-based fabrication and direct in-clinic fitting workflows.
For orthotic workshops, podiatry services, rehabilitation centres, and O&P clinics, this shell is easy to grind, trim, and finish, supporting efficient production of clean, patient-specific orthotic devices. Its rigid construction makes it suitable for patients who require stronger support and more defined alignment control than semi-flexible or semi-rigid shell options.
