Espire Classic


The Espire Classic is a body-powered mechanical elbow that features a forearm counterbalance mechanism and manual lock. It uses a dial to adjust the effect of the counterbalance which can be located either laterally or medially. This model contains no electronics or circuitry to provide a lightweight option.
 

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
  • Does not have a slip-stop function, meaning the elbow will not drift downwards under load - even when locked
  • Anatomical look and shape offer a natural resting position
  • Available in six finish options: Brown, Caucasian, White, Silver, Jet Black and Carbon Fibre
