- KYDEX deforms less when loaded. This is of particular importance in deep formed parts with thin wall sections. KYDEX offers rigidity along with a high degree of toughness and resilience
- KYDEX® is a relatively hard thermoplastic with a hardness of 90 on the Rockwell R scale.
- MOLDABLE KYDEX is easily molded in the field to accommodate patient conditions setting it apart from Polypro and other less expensive plastics. Use KYDEX, the Premium thermoplastic
- Although more expensive (3-5 times) and harder to work with, LEEDer chooses KYDEX for all Multi Podus Boot shells and for Ambulation pad reinforcement, creating a superior product
