Prosthetic materials and components

Prosthetic materials are materials used in the construction of artificial limbs, also known as prostheses. These materials are designed to be strong, lightweight, and durable, as well as comfortable for the user to wear for long periods of time.

There are several types of materials commonly used in the construction of prostheses, including:

  • Plastics: Plastics are a common choice for prosthetic materials due to their strength, durability, and ability to be moulded into various shapes.
  • Composites: Composites are materials made up of two or more different materials that are combined to create a new material with unique properties.
  • Metals: Metals such as aluminium, titanium, and stainless steel are also commonly used in the construction of prostheses.
  • Silicone: Silicone is a synthetic rubber-like material that is often used in prosthetic liners, worn inside the socket system to provide a comfortable and secure fit.

Prosthetic materials are an important consideration when choosing a prosthesis, as they can affect the comfort, durability, and functionality of the device.
