Who is the 3R106 knee joint suitable for?

The 3R106 pneumatic knee joint was designed for moderately active users. It features a compact design and low weight and offers flexibility for various everyday situations.

Is the 3R106 waterproof?

No, the 3R106 knee joint is not waterproof.

How long will it take me to learn how to use the 3R106 properly?

There is no universal answer here. Depending on the specific circumstances, it may take a few days or weeks for users to fully adjust to using the 3R106 in everyday situations.

What other products are included in a fitting with the 3R106?

During the 3R106 fitting, your O&P professional will adapt and assemble all the components selected for your prosthesis. This includes the 3R106 knee joint, all necessary adapters up to the prosthetic foot, as well as a well-fitting socket. A hip joint can also be fitted together with the 3R106. The assembly and setup of the chosen components are of course also included.

Is the 3R106 suitable for sports?

The 3R106 is not a special sports knee joint and is therefore unsuitable for intensive sports activities. However, it allows you to move quickly in everyday life – for example if you have to hurry to catch the tram. If you are interested in being fitted with a sports prosthesis, take a look at the 3S80 sports knee joint page.

Can I test the 3R106 knee joint?

Yes, of course you can test the 3R106. Please just speak to your O&P professional.

Benefits at a glance

For stability and reliability.

Master everyday life

Whether you’re being transported to your next destination while sitting on the train, kneeling to do some gardening or playing with your children or grandchildren on the floor – the high knee flexion angle of the 3R106 will support you.

Moving in confined spaces

With the 3R106 knee joint, you can move through narrow aisles in the supermarket, place dishes in your kitchen cupboards or navigate crowds in the market.

Safety while walking

The polycentric structure of the 3R106 provides reliable stability during the stance phase, shortens during the swing phase and can deliver increased ground clearance, which can reduce the risk of the tip of the foot getting caught on the ground.

Flexible at any pace

Whether you’re in a hurry and want to move faster or sometimes prefer to take a slow walk in the countryside – the 3R106 supports your individual pace and provides reliable support at varying walking speeds.

3R106-PROKnee prosthetics

Modular Knee Joint, servo-pneumatic

The key element of the new 3R106 Pro is the servo-pneumatic control. Its powerful dual-chamber pneumatic unit with progressive damping properties has a flexion valve that the O&P professional sets for the user’s normal walking speed. At faster walking speeds, the flexion resistance increases auto-adaptively, which prevents excessive flexion of the knee joint. As a result, pendulum movements in the swing phase are smoothly controlled, even at higher walking speeds. The integrated, automatic quick venting of the flexion chamber ensures that smooth extension movement is possible even at higher walking speeds – so a greater range of walking speeds is supported.

3R78Knee prosthetics

Knee joint, polycentric, with pneumatic swing phase control

The 3R78 knee joint is lightweight yet robust and offers high stance phase safety for users with moderate activity levels. The joint geometry effectively shortens the prosthesis when your leg swings through, giving you more ground clearance. A large flexion angle of 150° also provides greater freedom of movement. The knee joint also supports you when walking at various speeds and is approved for a body weight of up to 100 kilograms.
