Fabric Options for covered or partially covered liners

• Covered or Partially Covered:

  • If partial cover height is not noted on order form, liner will be covered like 6Y512

  • Full cover height is not recommended for suction/vacuum suspension

• Uncovered: Allows maximum flow, easier to don with lubricant and tends to bunch less in the posterior aspect.

• Lycra – Slick/stretchy, thinnest fabric, low-friction to slide into socket (0.6 mm fabric thickness)

• Wearforce – Tougher/thicker, durable and abrasion-resistant, can de difficult to don and may require good hand strength (1.6mm fabric thickness)

• Uneo 3D Textile – Integrated sheath, similar to the OTS Uneo 6Y512 (1.0 mm fabric thickness)

• KISS TF Textile – Strong Velcro adhesion, similar to the OTS Skeo 6Y88 (0.75 mm fabric thickness)

Additives

• SkinGuard – Antibacterial protection

• Fresh Scent – Helps control odor

Custom Modifications

• Targeted buildups, reductions, and reliefs for sensitive or bony areas

Liner Duplications

For those who have been using lower limb prostheses for a while, duplicating your existing liner ensures consistent fit and function. We offer two options for liner duplications:

• Repour (No Changes Needed)

  • Mold is stored for 3 years from the date of your last order.

  • If it’s been over 3 years, you’ll need to send a new scan or cast.

• Repour with Alterations

  • Contact: +1 (800)-328-4058 (Press 1, then 1 again) or email: usslcliners@ottobock.com to place an order with requested changes.

  • If it’s been over 3 years since your last order, a new scan or cast will be required.

What you’ll need to place an order:

1. Purchase Order (PO) number

2. Serial number of the liner you want duplicated

   • Can be found etched into the gel of inverted, distal aspect of liner
