One of the most durable elbow units currently available, the Steeper Automatic Elbow is available in a range of 3 sizes and 4 colour options. Flexion can be locked in 8 distinct positions, with a free swing position, using an anterior actuator that can be operated manually or by means of a harness.
Humeral rotation is available and can be controlled with an adjustable friction screw. The rotation can also be manually locked using a rotatable ring. Proximally the elbow connects to a lateral ring (sold separately) which should be laminated into the upper section of the prosthesis. Distally the elbow connects to a prefabricated forearm (sold separately) with parallel distal section which fits a range of wrist options.
The forearm contains reinforcing side steels with prepositioned holes to receive the flexion cable guide. The forearm is available in 4 colors, please contact Steeper for information if alternative colors are required.
