Poron 4708 Blue Wheels 2AB
Poron Blue Orthotic Wheels
Medical-grade blue Poron supplied in a practical wheel format for cutting cushioning components, orthotic additions and workshop padding to the required length. The compact 130mm-wide roll helps professional users organise materials more efficiently while reducing the offcuts and storage demands associated with full sheets. Each wheel contains 12 metres of material and is available in 1.6mm or 3.2mm thicknesses.
What It Does and How It Works
Poron 4708 Blue is a cushioning material used during the fabrication, adjustment or refurbishment of foot orthoses and related devices. It can be cut into specific shapes and incorporated as a localised pad, cushioning layer or workshop component according to the intended design.
The wheel format does not change how the material is applied. It changes how it is stored and dispensed, allowing the user to remove a controlled length rather than cutting each component from a large sheet.
The final position, thickness, shape and combination of materials should be selected according to the device design, available footwear space and the needs identified during professional assessment.
Common Problems It May Help Address
Localised Pressure
May be incorporated into a professionally designed orthotic device where an additional cushioning layer or localised pressure-management component is required.
Impact and Repetitive Loading
Can be used as part of a cushioning construction intended to improve comfort beneath selected areas of the foot.
Footwear or Orthotic Friction
May be cut and positioned within a fabricated device to provide a softer interface at a specific contact area.
Worn Cushioning Components
Suitable for workshop use when replacing or adding cushioning sections during orthotic adjustment or refurbishment.
This material is a fabrication component rather than a complete treatment. Outcomes depend on correct assessment, placement, shaping and integration into the finished device.
Applications and Suitability
Poron 4708 Blue Wheels are intended for professional workshops and clinical environments that regularly cut cushioning materials for orthotic or footwear-related applications.
- Custom foot orthotic fabrication and modification
- Localised cushioning pads and additions
- Orthotic refurbishment or adjustment
- Footwear and insole workshop applications
- Clinics requiring compact, easy-to-dispense material storage
- Podiatry, orthotic, prosthetic and footwear fabrication settings
Who It May Not Suit
- Users seeking a ready-to-wear insole or finished orthotic device
- Applications requiring a material width greater than 130mm without joining separate sections
- Unassessed self-treatment of persistent foot pain, wounds, numbness or significant pressure-related problems
- Fabrication where the selected thickness would make the finished device too bulky for the intended footwear
- Any application for which the material has not been confirmed as appropriate by the treating clinician or fabricating technician

Usage Instructions
- Select the appropriate thickness for the intended device, available footwear space and required construction.
- Unroll enough material for the planned component without removing more than needed.
- Measure and mark the required length and shape using the relevant template or device as a guide.
- Cut with a suitable sharp workshop tool on a stable cutting surface.
- Shape, finish and fit the component using the fabrication method appropriate to the orthosis or device.
- Check the completed device for fit, bulk, edges and comfort before it is supplied for use.
- Return the unused material to a clean, dry storage area after cutting.
Benefits
-
More Efficient Material Yield:Â The continuous 12m length allows users to dispense material according to each job rather than repeatedly cutting into full sheets.
-
Tidier Work Areas: Rolled storage can help keep benches and material racks more organised, particularly where several cushioning products are used.
-
Lower Storage Demand: The compact wheel format is easier to store in smaller clinics and workshops than large-format sheet material.
-
Protected Unused Material:Â Keeping the remaining length rolled makes it easier to minimise unnecessary exposure to workshop dust.
-
Practical for Repeated Jobs: A useful format for clinics and laboratories that regularly produce narrow pads, strips and cushioning components.
- Choice of Profile:Â Two thickness options support lower-profile or deeper material constructions without changing the roll dimensions.
Contraindications and Warnings
- This is a workshop fabrication material and is not supplied as a finished medical device or ready-to-wear insole.
- Professional assessment is recommended before using cushioning materials to manage persistent pain, pressure, instability or altered sensation.
- Do not rely on additional padding to manage an open wound, infection, unexplained swelling or rapidly worsening symptoms. Seek appropriate clinical assessment.
- People with diabetes, impaired circulation, reduced sensation or a history of foot ulceration should have any orthotic modification reviewed by a suitably qualified healthcare professional.
- Incorrect placement or excessive material thickness may alter fit, create unwanted pressure or reduce available footwear space.
- Use suitable cutting tools carefully and follow normal workshop safety procedures.
- Inspect the finished component regularly and replace it if it becomes compressed, damaged, contaminated or no longer performs as intended.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are Poron 4708 Blue Wheels used for?
They provide cut-to-length cushioning material for orthotic fabrication, modification and refurbishment. The material may be shaped into pads, strips or other components selected by the clinician or technician.
Why choose a wheel instead of a sheet?
A wheel allows the user to unroll only the amount required for each task. This can reduce offcuts, simplify storage and help keep the remaining material contained between jobs.
What size is each wheel?
Each wheel is 130mm wide and contains 12 metres of material. The narrow continuous format is particularly practical for smaller cushioning components and repeated workshop tasks.
Which thicknesses are available?
The wheels are available in 1.6mm and 3.2mm thicknesses. Selection should be based on the intended construction, required profile and the space available inside the finished device or footwear.
Is this a complete insole?
No. It is a raw fabrication material that must be measured, cut and incorporated into an appropriate device or construction before use.
Can it be used for heel or forefoot cushioning?
It may be cut into localised components for these areas where the application is considered appropriate. The shape, position and thickness should be determined according to the assessment and design of the finished orthosis.
Is it suitable for daily-use orthotics?
It can be incorporated into orthotics intended for regular wear when selected and fitted appropriately. The completed device should be checked for footwear fit, unwanted pressure and changes in comfort during use.
How should the wheel be stored?
Keep the material rolled in a clean, dry area away from workshop contamination and potential damage. Avoid crushing the wheel or placing heavy equipment on top of it.
Who typically uses this material?
The wheel format is designed for professional environments such as podiatry clinics, orthotic laboratories and footwear workshops. It is especially useful where cushioning materials are cut frequently in smaller sections.
