These liners deliver both comfort and security.
Silicone ArmLiner
The advantages of silicone:
- Temperature resistant from -60 °C (-76° F)
to + 200 °C (393° F) - Water, sweat and weather resistant
- Odor free
- Good adhesion
The Silicone ArmLiner provides an intimate fit and is skin-friendly. It features two-way stretch, yet is strong enough to resist unwanted stretching longitudinally. The Silicone ArmLiner is also the world’s first liner system specifically designed to meet the requirements of upper extremity prosthetics.
And because a lightweight prosthesis is easier to use and more comfortable to wear, we designed the liner to be as thin and light as possible.
The corresponding 14A1 Lock Set was developed after many years experience in upper extremity prosthetics. It is lightweight, functional and easy to use. The lock was designed to be as short as possible, which is especially important for people with long residual limbs.
Fittings with myoelectric devices require precise positioning in the prosthetic socket. For this reason, the Silicone ArmLiner pin system was designed with only a single ratchet.
