Skeo Sealing family & QuickValve

Think of a liner as a kind of stocking that you pull over your residual limb. It therefore forms the connection between your residual limb and your prosthesis. A liner offers you a comfortable and secure hold for the prosthesis, while helping to relieve and protect your residual limb.

Three different liners are part of the Skeo Sealing family. The 6Y110 Skeo Sealing for transfemoral amputees with a cylindrical residual limb shape. The 6Y111 Skeo Sealing 3D for transfemoral users with a conical residual limb shape and the 6Y112 Skeo Sealing TT for transtibial amputees. If you are a transfemoral amputee, your O&P professional will choose the right fit together with you.

The QuickValve is used in combination with a sealing sleeve or a liner with a lip (sealing liner) to generate a vacuum in the prosthetic socket. This reduces friction and shear forces during the swing phase. During the stance phase, your body weight pushes excess air in the prosthetic socket out of the socket through the valve. The expulsion valve can be opened manually by turning to allow you to take off the socket or to sit more comfortably.

Yes, the liners and the QuickValve are protected against fresh, salt and chlorinated water.
