Point Pivot

Product information

The Point Pivot is a rotatable mounting system that provides an additional degree of freedom to the Point Thumb. Though it is intended for use with the Point Thumb, the Point Pivot is compatible with the Point Digit, Point Digit mini, and Point Partial.

Designed for people who have thumb amputations slightly proximal of the metacarpal phalangeal (MCP) joint, desire a more dynamic prosthetic thumb, and aren't candidates for the Point Pivot+.

The Point Pivot is a heavy-duty, passive device with a robust construction. It empowers people with significant thumb loss by giving them more mobility, function, and independence. It is intended to be used with the Point Thumb and replaces the standard mounting kit. However, you do not need to use the Point Pivot in order to use the Point Thumb, it is simply an additional device that adds more function to the Point Thumb for patients with higher level thumb amputations.

It is available in two configurations: Compact and Extended. By default the Point Pivot is provided in the Compact configuration, which is designed for integration with new sockets. The Extended configuration can be provided upon request. The Extended configuration is directly compatible with existing sockets where a Point Thumb was previously mounted. The Point Pivot and the Point Thumb (and their associated mounting kits) are sold separately.

The Point Pivot is made of titanium and stainless steel, and comes with all necessary hardware for integration into a prosthetic socket. A semi-hollow titanium construction ensures a high strength-to-weight ratio.
