The Carbon Ankle Seven gives patients an orthosis that returns more energy for walking and uniquely fits their natural movements. The carbon fiber ankle joint can be thermoformed into the AFO. It provides advanced energy return to help patients enjoy a more natural gait cycle.
Because it replaces traditional ankle joints, patients will appreciate that it is lighter and there is no abrupt stop in the movement of the high tech spring.
Features and Benefits
Manufactured from carbon fiber to provide energy return during the gait cycle.
