This is a stable knee brace made from a flat knitted compression material.
The brace has also an integrated silicone pad for patella support. It has been fitted with the new hinges made from aluminium with extension and flexion stops. The stops are made from injection molded nylon and can stop extension in 0°, 10°, 20°, 30° and 40° as well as flexion 45°, 60°, 75° and 90°.
The hinge covers are extremely durable meaning the joint won't break through the covers in time.
The hyper extension strap in the back of the brace has a low profile and can be adjusted in the front by micro hook tabs. The thigh and shin part of the brace are fitted with adjustable non elastic straps.
For larger thighs there is a new option called PLUS. These sizes are available from M-XXXL and have 3 cm wider circumference over the thigh but the same circumference around the knee and calf as the standard sizes.
· Graded compression in three zones
· Strong aluminium hinge
· Hyper-extension strap
