Fillauer Swing Phase Lock Kits

Product information


The Fillauer Swing Phase Lock 2 (SPL2) uses a simple internal pendulum mechanism to lock and unlock the knee depending on the angle of the joint in the sagittal plane. Because the mechanism is position dependent, it does not rely on heel loading or cabling as in other designs. This allows for a more normal gait pattern and prevents circumduction or hip hiking commonly seen in standard KAFOs.
