Introducing the DURASHOCK pylon from FILLAUER LLC

The main benefit of this shock/torsion reducing pylon is that it simulates the rotation and shock absorption of the natural limb during stance phase. All lower limb amputees benefit from shock/rotation reduction, especially transfemoral users, who require greater motion damping at heel strike since the knee and ankle are not present. Beneficial for everyday use, shock/torsion reduction is most noticeable during activities such as gardening, hiking, tennis, or golf.

Features

• 3 different stiffness options matched to Pt. Weight/Activity
• 3 configurations - Short Pylon, Long Pylon, Tube Clamp
• Up to 60º of axial rotation (30º in each direction)
• Shock absorption for increased socket comfort
• Maintenance free design
• Clearance as low as 3.5" (89mm)
• Standard 30mm pylon or heavy duty 34mm pylon
• Titanium Core technology


Benefits

• Reduction of forces to residual limb
• Requires no lubrication or bumper changes
• Smooth motion created by the Dynamic Elastomer
• May increase stride length
• Compact design requires minimal clearance
