ORIGINAL POST -
In the past I've used carbon plates that are about 9 to10mm thick and have a
slight bend in the middle and a 4-hole pattern on both ends of the plate to
off-set knees on an AK (i.e. when there is a significant flexion
contracture). I can find plenty of aluminum and steel plates like these,
but cannot recall the information on who makes or distributes the carbon
version. As I remember they are available in differing lengths. Any help?
Thanks!

REPLIES -

The overwhelming response is: Flexcon Plates available from Prosthetic
Design Inc. 800-459-0177, same also available from SPS.

Thanks all for allowing me to stop wracking my brain trying to figure out
who made these!
