protheflex system

protheflex system is a method of manufacturing flexible sockets with protheflex polyurethane resin.

It is a "sandwich" lamination technique combining flexible material with a rigid frame in the middle. The working process is very similar to the usual lamination process. No need for expensive new equipment.

The result is a single-wall protheflex flexible socket.

flexible polyurethane resin

protheflex is a flexible polyurethane resin used for the lamination of all types of flexible prosthetic sockets, hand orthoses, cosmetic coatings, etc.

It is a two-component resin, similar to silicone material but stronger and more durable.

flexible socket

  • ideal for everyday life and sports
  • reduced pressure onto the prominent bony parts
  • longer activity/wearing time
  • muscle contraction freedom
  • stability / full control over leg
  • more comfort when sitting
  • torsion movements available
  • easier kneeling due to the flexible edges of the socket
  • not tearing your clothes

flexible polyurethane resin

easy lamination

  • easy lamination process
  • sufficient time for laminating
  • possible multi-stage lamination
  • single wall socket - sandwich lamination
  • possibility of re-lamination
  • thinner wall at critical areas
  • no new expensive equipment required
  • hides prosthetist's errors

possible applications

  • for all types of socket shapes (PTB, Soderberg, EMS, IC, Mass, Quadro-lateral...)
  • for all levels of amputations (partial foot, BK, AK, hip baskets, ...)
  • for all suspension types (vacuum, pin-lock, RevoFit lace, ...)
  • for flexible cosmetic covers
  • for all activity levels
  • for orthotics
