Prosthetic Liners

Prosthetic liners are a vital component for prosthesis users, providing both suspension and cushioning to create a secure, comfortable fit. By minimizing friction and helping distribute pressure, these liners act as a protective layer between the residual limb and the prosthetic socket. Many prosthesis users choose to pair their liner with a specialized Liner-Liner sock, which helps wick perspiration, control odor, and further enhance overall comfort.

With advances in prosthetic technology, choosing the right prosthetic liner depends on your unique activity level and personal preferences. Options vary in thickness, gel or silicone compositions, and other features that can deliver extra cushioning, reduce moisture buildup, or improve durability. It’s crucial to consider these attributes to find a liner that best supports your lifestyle and mobility goals.

Whether you’re selecting a gel or silicone liner or comparing different thicknesses, understanding how prosthetic liners function and how to care for them can significantly impact your daily experience.
