Perlon Stockinette for Orthotic and Prosthetic Lamination

Perlon stockinette is a finely knitted lamination material used in orthotic and prosthetic fabrication. Designed to absorb resin evenly, it helps create a smooth, consistent surface finish during the lamination process.

Commonly used as a finishing or carrier layer, Perlon stockinette conforms closely to complex shapes and supports high-quality socket fabrication. It is typically used alongside reinforcing materials such as fibreglass or carbon fibre to complete lamination builds.

Key Features

• Fine mesh Perlon stockinette for lamination
• Excellent resin absorption and saturation
• Provides smooth, even surface finishes
• Good stretch for shaping over complex forms
• Compatible with a wide range of resins
• Used as a finishing or carrier layer

Applications

Perlon stockinette is widely used in orthotic and prosthetic laboratories for socket fabrication and orthosis production. It is typically applied as a first or final layer in lamination, helping achieve a clean surface finish and consistent resin distribution.

Suitable for prosthetic sockets, orthotic devices and composite lamination processes, this material is essential for technicians requiring reliable finishing results in clinical and workshop environments.
