Alpha® AK - Locking Liner Overview
Designed for AK amputees, the Alpha® AK Liner offers the same skin-friendly, mineral-oil based gel as the Original Alpha Liners, and uses the Alpha® Spirit fabric. designed for use with a shuttle lock and 10 mm pin, or the Alpha® Locking Lanyard.
Alpha® AK - Locking Liner Specification
AK amputees often have very specific needs for additional socket padding to accommodate sensitive areas. The Alpha® AK LIner takes this fact into account with the creation of a specific AK gel style: 9mm of gel distally tapering to 3mm proximally with a built in gel pad to protect the often sensitive femur. The Alpha® Spirit Fabric used in the Alpha® AK Liner is unique in its ability to flex during donning or doffing, while providing outstanding support on this limb. This distinctive fabric pattern is optimized for transfemoral applications.

While developing the Alpha® AK Liner, Ohio Willow Wood's R&D department took the best of what was learned with the Alpha® Original Liner and applied it to meet more specific needs of AK amputees.

The Alpha® AK Liner is designed for use with a shuttle lock and 10 mm pin, or the Alpha® Locking Lanyard. Now AK amputees can experience comfort beyond belief!
