Soft and hard, exactly where you want them.

Soft zone
A softer silicone for comfort and offloading over sensitive or bony areas.
Hard zone
A firmer silicone for support, stability and soft-tissue control.

All features of Your® UniShore Liners.

SuspensionsSuspension systems can be fully configured to optimally answer patients’ needs.
ThicknessesProtect sensitive areas and keep Your® Liner light and flexible.
ReductionOur algorithms optimise reductions for an optimal fit.

Your® Liner with its configurable features marked: suspension, flexion, thicknesses, anatomical fit, compression, hardness and style

FlexionPre-flexion is built into every liner, so it bends with the knee instead of fighting it.
TailoredPear-shaped, invaginated, bony, scarred & sensitive limbs are now easily fitted.
HardnessTo better match the needs of each underlying tissue type.

StyleChoose amongst our design options or make your own style.

Every feature from UniShore, plus

Localised Shore hardness control
Combine different silicone hardnesses within a single liner. Soft silicone goes where flexibility or comfort is needed, firmer silicone where support, proprioception or durability matters.
Configuration Warranty
With DualShore we do not only warrant that the liner will fit — we warrant that the configuration you choose will work. As long as the liner has been worn and the user’s situation has not changed since the order, you are covered on silicone types, hardness zones, suspension, thicknesses and knee flexion angle.

Indications

When two hardnesses earn their place.

Distal weight-bearing capacity
If the limb can bear weight distally (Symes, Gritti and similar), hard silicone on the distal end can improve proprioception and durability.
Bony prominences
Sensitive bony prominences can benefit from soft silicone, for improved comfort and lower risk of pressure peaks.
Pear-shaped limbs
Soft silicone on the narrow limb segment gives enhanced stretch, for easier donning.
Unstable prosthesis
Hard silicone on weight-bearing areas promotes better proprioception and overall stability.
Painful knee flexion
Soft silicone on the patella / popliteal fossa stretches more easily, making knee flexion feel easier and more natural.
Scars, grafts, low skin elasticity
Low-elasticity skin is sensitive to shear stress. Soft silicone lowers shear stress and can help reduce the risk of skin injuries.

For straightforward cases the added value of a DualShore liner over a UniShore one may be marginal. For demanding users, marginal improvements can still make a great deal of difference.

The silicones

Choose two between three types.

Pick any two of the three silicone types and place each one where it works best.

Shore A0

Relax

Pros: Very comfortable · easy donning & doffing
Cons: Lower durability · more pistoning
Suitable for: K1 / K2
Contraindications: K3 / K4

Shore A5

Active

Pros: Very comfortable · most versatile solution
Cons: Durability can be limited for extremely active users
Suitable for: K2 / K3 / K4
Contraindications: None

Shore A10

Dynamic

Pros: High durability · soft-tissue stabilisation
Cons: Harder donning & doffing · stiffer cushioning
Suitable for: K3 / K4 · abundant soft tissue
Contraindications: Bony limbs · fragile / sensitive skin
