GENERAL PURPOSE LINER
PART # GPDT/GPFR
ALPS® General Purpose prosthetic liner, made of Grip Gel, ensures optimum adhesion and comfortably conforms to the shape of the residual limb.
It is recommended for patients with low activity levels and good skin conditions; it is also indicated for irregularly shaped residual limbs and those with bony protrusions.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
GEL TECHNOLOGY
The General Purpose liner contains the softness, strength, and cushioning of our Grip Gel, relieving the residual limb from the stress generated by vertical and shear forces.
FABRIC TECHNOLOGY
The superior elongation of this prosthetic liner means that blood flow is not restricted, and it allows the liner to delicately conform to the shape of the residual limb.
LOCKING & CUSHION SUSPENSION
The locking version features a Reinforced Matrix to prevent distal pistoning and contain redundant tissue.
KEY BENEFITS
Delicately conforms to the shape of the residual limb and does not restrict blood flow.
Easy to don also for patients with reduced manual dexterity.
Protects the residual limb thanks to the high capacity of the Grip Gel to absorb vertical and shear forces.
Safe suspension of the prosthesis due to the superior adhesive properties of the Grip Gel.

Distal End Construction
The General Purpose 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.
