EXTREME™ LINER
PART # AKDT/AKFR
ALPS Extreme Liner is a prosthetic liner made of Grip Gel that ensures excellent adhesion to the residual limb, improving control of the prosthesis without limiting comfort.
It is recommended for patients, both transfemoral and transtibial, with low to medium activity levels, whose skin is in good condition and who aim to maintain a good level of control of the prosthetic leg.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
GEL TECHNOLOGY
The superior adhesion of the Grip Gel allows the safe and comfortable suspension of the prosthetic leg.
FABRIC TECHNOLOGY
It improves the control of the prosthetic leg and reduces pistoning, while still providing superior protection of the residual limb.
LOCKING & CUSHION SUSPENSION
The locking version features a Reinforced Matrix to prevent distal pistoning and contain redundant tissue.
KEY BENEFITS
Protects the residual limb thanks to the high capacity of the Grip Gel to absorb vertical and shear forces.
Improves control of the prosthetic leg thanks to the limited vertical stretch of the fabric.
Reduces pistoning thanks to the fabric's limited vertical stretch and the distal matrix (locking version).
Safe suspension of the prosthesis due to the superior adhesive properties of the Grip Gel.

DISTAL END CONSTRUCTION
The Extreme Liner's distal end assembly process is unique and complex, involving several elements that fuse together to create a highly durable internal structure. This structure results in a liner that is guaranteed to provide the protection, comfort, durability, performance, and fit that users deserve.
