Hi list!

I had someone come in today looking to replace a pin liner. This is someone with a TR amputation who does not wear a prosthesis, instead he wears a locking liner and screws in homemade terminal devices. I believe he previously had the Otto Bock Prosil liner but when I showed him some examples he said it was more like the polyurethane ones. He did not bring the liner he has been using with him so I assuming based on a previous note in his chart.

Other than the Otto Bock PUR, do you have any suggestions for a stiff enough liner to keep the end from moving too much while working with the terminal devices. Ideally it would be of the same thread size as the Otto Bock liner.

Thank you!
