New M-Fingers for Partial Hands

Liberating Technologies introduces the new M-Finger partial-hand kit, consisting of dexterous fingers, a multi-position friction thumb, and mounting plates for use in a mechanical hand assembly. The fingers and thumb have urethane covers to provide better grasp and molded-in finger nails for picking up small objects. The fingers are actuated by a Spectra™ cable that crosses the wrist and is controlled by simple wrist flexion. Each finger independently conforms to the shape of the object, allowing for multiple grasp patterns. M-Fingers are available in various segment lengths and can be customized to suit the patient.

Because Every Client Is Different

As prosthetists, our designers know the importance of a good fit. We also know that different clients have different needs and that there are times when an off-the-shelf TES Belt or Durasleeve will not meet those needs.

Our complete line can be adapted to meet the needs of clients with transfemoral amputations. We can also custom make the Durasleeve for transtibial suspension, including the Durasleeve HD for exceptionally active clients and the Durasleeve EZ for clients with limited dexterity. For special orders, contact your Syncor supplier.
