Canadian Orthopedic Technology Company Adds Basalt Fiber Products

Canadian renowned plastic surgery technology company MOT (Myrdal) adds basalt fiber components and products to its product range because it is a sustainable wear resistant material.

MOT enjoys a high reputation in the Canadian plastic surgery and prosthetic industries. It provides components, tools, wearable parts and services for many clinics in Canada.

At present, MOT sells and uses basalt fiber composites, which include tubular knitted fabrics, unidirectional belts and fabrics.

There is even a basalt fiber knitted fabric with bright Lurex cord, which makes the finished product look more beautiful.

The company also provides mixed woven fabrics and belts made of basalt fiber and flax fiber, which can not affect the quality of components and high ecological compatibility.

MOT experts say that high quality basalt fiber comes from volcanic rock, making it an environmentally friendly organic product. Its flexibility index is between glass fiber and carbon fiber, so it is a useful and interesting substitute for traditional materials.

Because of its good performance, basalt fiber is safer to use than glass fiber, carbon fiber and aramid fiber, and is compatible with all kinds of adhesives and other fibers. It is light, non-toxic, and has high strength, durability and cost effectiveness.

The experimental results are also interesting when comparing the properties of carbon fiber and basalt fiber reinforced composites.

According to the test results, basalt fiber composite material has a higher strength index in bending and fracture.

Coyote Design, a company specializing in plastic surgery and prosthetic industry, also uses basalt fiber.

The manufacturers use these materials in their further production to manufacture woven fabrics, knitted fabrics, ropes and composite materials.
