FLO-TECH^® Offers
Symes and Other
Custom Sockets and Systems

Practitioners periodically order custom sockets and systems. 

Here you will find some of the most unusual custom orders we have filled. These sockets and systems are generally made from measurements and adhere to the patented design principals established in our standard sizes. We have made customs sockets with Pelite or Aliplast lining and with shuttle lock systems (not pictured here).

Practitioners often believe that elsewhere it is difficult to get custom services quickly, but not at FLO-TECH^®. Custom sockets and systems, including those pictured here, are shipped on the same day as ordered (if ordered prior to Noon Eastern Standard Time).

We also have the component features you are looking for (joints, shuttle lock, etc.).

We have made Symes, knee disarticulation, extremely long transtibial and transfemoral sockets and systems as well as jointed sockets and sockets with shuttle lock suspension.

The Symes Socket is a VCSPS^® type socket with some unique features: there is a distal strap which will provide AP, ML and circumferential control and reduction (not unlike the VCSPS^®), the socket has two unique slot sets, one is located, medially and laterally on the posterior section, at the distal belly of the calf and the other is located, medially and laterally on the posterior section, at the smallest portion of the ankle. This configuration allows for a variety of shapes and sizes to be comfortably protected by the socket. Most patients use the protective Symes socket for transfers. However, a UFOS would be required for extended or training ambulation and can be provided upon request.
