IDEASTEP Wedge-01 lateral wedge insoles are hard EVA wedge pads designed for use in compatible foot orthotic products. Available in 3°, 4° and 5° options, they give orthotic manufacturers and distributors several angle choices for different product designs.
The pads feature an adhesive-backed design for manual positioning and attachment. They are intended for selected orthotic applications involving varus or valgus positioning, with the final angle and placement determined by the product design and intended use.

Wedge-01 Lateral Wedge Insole Overview
Wedge-01 is an orthotic component rather than a complete insole. Its compact wedge format allows it to be incorporated into compatible insole designs during assembly.
Key features include:
- Material: Hard EVA
- Available angles: 3°, 4° and 5°
- Color: Brown
- Installation: Adhesive-backed for manual attachment
- Product type: Wedge pad for foot orthotics
The three angle options support different product configurations. Buyers should confirm the angle specification, orientation and placement requirements before ordering.
3°, 4° and 5° Wedge Options
Wedge-01 is available in three angle options to accommodate different orthotic designs.
- 3° wedge: For designs specifying a 3-degree wedge.
- 4° wedge: For designs specifying a 4-degree wedge.
- 5° wedge: For designs specifying a 5-degree wedge.
The appropriate option depends on the intended application and the orthotic design. The angle alone does not determine the correct placement or suitability for a particular user.
For OEM projects, we recommend confirming the wedge orientation and intended position against a technical drawing or sample before bulk production.

Hard EVA Construction and Adhesive Design
Hard EVA Material
Wedge-01 uses hard EVA to provide a firm, shaped component for compatible orthotic assemblies. Its suitability depends on the required wedge geometry, available space inside the footwear and the specifications of the finished product.
Manufacturers can evaluate the component alongside their existing insole materials and construction methods before approving it for production.
Adhesive-Backed Installation
The adhesive-backed design allows the pad to be positioned and attached manually during assembly. This provides flexibility during product preparation without requiring the wedge to be manufactured as part of a complete insole.
Adhesive compatibility and attachment strength should be tested with the intended insole surface. Performance may vary depending on the materials and assembly process.
Applications in Varus and Valgus Orthotic Products
Lateral wedge pads can be used as components in selected orthotic designs involving varus or valgus positioning. Wedge-01 is intended for manufacturers developing or assembling these types of products.
The correct wedge orientation, angle and placement depend on the specific design. The pad should not be treated as a universal component for every orthotic application.
For bulk orders, buyers should provide the intended application and any relevant drawings or samples so that product specifications can be reviewed before production.
