Features & Benefits
Locking the elbow is performed via a cable on the device, and uses a simple upward pull to engage
Utilises a forearm counterbalance mechanism to negate the effects of gravity and allows the patient to position the forearm with minimal effort

Anatomical look and shape offer a natural resting position
Available in six finish options: Brown, Caucasian, White, Silver, Jet Black and Carbon Fibre
