An evolution in socket technology.
Xtremity is Changing the Future of Prosthetics
And probably the future of your practice, too.
Founded in 2017, Xtremity has followed an intentional path to develop thermoformable socket technology and cost-efficient fabrication processes that will have a life-changing impact on prosthetic care for individuals with transtibial limb loss/difference, as well as the prosthetists who care for them.
Xtremity
The XtremityTTTM Socket System is a thermoformable transtibial definitive socket that is easier, faster and safer to custom fabricate than a traditional carbon fiber laminated socket.
Patient Benefits:
- More comfort, less pain
- Fewer appointments
- Longer prosthesis use
- Early intervention
Clinician Benefits:
- Quicker fabrication time
- Heat adjustability
- Safer fabrication
- Precision & ease of use
Here’s the gist:
HEAT
Place the XtremityTTTM Preform into the Benchtop Heating Unit.
SHAPE
Once heated, the XtremityTTTM Preform is thermoformable over a positive limb model under vacuum.
ASSEMBLE
Assemble distal componentry with modular and interchangeable suspension systems and alignment base that offers up to 16mm slide and 30 degrees of rotations adjustment.
ADJUST
Spot-heat and adjust the socket using a heat gun an unlimited number of times throughout the life of the prosthesis.
