Original Post:
Are there any companies out there that make a metal tibial torsion brace? I know Wheaton makes a plastic one, but I'm interested in metal ones.

Thank you all for the information you were able to provide.

The answer to your question is yes. If fact my company makes one, it is
called the tib-transformer. It works essentialy the same way as the Wheaton Orthosis but in more of an endo-skeletal design. A nice simple thigh cuff, a calf cuff and a rotateable foot plate that allows the pateint to wear any type of shoe or even a serial cast. It keeps the knee bent at ninety degrees so the rotational forces are focused on the tibia and allows easy adjustment with a graduated scale so you can easily monitor your progress.
If you would like any further information you can check out our web site freedomfabrication.com (it has pictures). Or if you like, please feel free to call me at 800.304.3733 and I will be glad to answer any questions you may have.

At one time Bremer made the best Tibial torsion braces in my opinion.
However when the company was bought out they supposedly sold the design to a manufacturer in Texas. However when I inquired at the time, 1 1/2 years ago, they could not tell me who.
