Webbing and Elastic

Webbing is a strong, narrow fabric made from woven fibres, such as nylon or polyester. It is often used in the construction of orthotic and prosthetic devices because it is lightweight, durable, and flexible. Webbing can be used in a variety of applications, including as a reinforcement for joints, as a means of attaching components, or as a tensioning element.

Elastic, on the other hand, is a material that is able to stretch and return to its original shape. It is often used in the construction of orthotic and prosthetic devices to provide support and stability while still allowing for movement. Elastic can be used in a number of ways, such as to create a custom fit for a patient, to provide compression or tension, or to absorb shock.
