Below Knee Components
Liner - Interface between user’s residual limb and socket. It provides cushioning and makes the fit tight.
Socket - The connection between user’s residual limb and prosthesis leg. The Socket transfers user’s weight comfortably through the prosthetic leg to the ground. It is the most critical component/part of a prosthetic leg.
Suspension - To secure the prosthesis to the residual limb
Pylon - Attach socket to prosthetic foot (terminal device). This can be adjusted according to the user’s height.
Prosthetic Foot - Artificial foot is attached below the tube.
