Description
The Fupro Below Knee Suspension Sleeve is designed to provide auxiliary suspension for transtibial (below-knee) prostheses. It helps secure the prosthesis to the residual limb by extending over the prosthetic socket and onto the thigh, providing additional suspension and stability during everyday activities.
Designed for comfort and mobility, the sleeve allows natural knee flexion while minimising bunching behind the patella (kneecap). Its bilateral design and enhanced grip help provide a secure and comfortable fit for daily prosthetic use.
