Ligament Instability Brace

Structured Ligament Support – Medial and lateral shaped stays provide substantial side-to-side knee stability.

Polycentric Hinges – Designed to follow knee movement during flexion and extension.

Adjustable Range of Motion – Flexion and extension can be restricted or the knee held at a selected angle where required.

Fully Openable Design – Thigh and calf sections open completely for easier application and removal.

Four Adjustable Straps – Allow secure fixation and individual adjustment around the leg.

3D Spacer Woven Fabric – Breathable construction improves airflow during wear.

Open-Patella Design – Reduces material over the front of the knee and provides easier access to sensitive areas.

Left & Right Specific – Separate versions are available for the affected knee.

Indicated where substantial knee stability or controlled range of motion is required, including selected ACL or PCL injury or reconstruction, mediolateral instability, joint laxity, post-traumatic knee instability and post-operative rehabilitation.

May also be considered for selected mild-to-moderate degenerative knee conditions where additional structured stability has been recommended.

That is cleaner than the current manufacturer's fairly awkward indication sentence while retaining what it actually supports.

Who is the Ligament Instability Brace suitable for?
It is designed for people requiring substantial structured knee support, including selected ACL or PCL injuries, ligament instability and post-operative rehabilitation.

How is this different from a standard hinged knee brace?
This brace provides a higher level of structural control and incorporates adjustable polycentric joints that can restrict flexion and extension. A standard hinged brace usually provides stability while allowing relatively unrestricted bending and straightening.

Can the range of motion be adjusted?
Yes. The hinge system allows flexion and extension to be limited or the knee held at a selected angle. Where the brace is being used following surgery or significant injury, these settings should follow clinical guidance.

What do the polycentric joints do?
The joints are designed to follow knee movement while providing controlled medial and lateral support through flexion and extension.

Is it suitable after ACL or PCL surgery?
It may be used during rehabilitation following ACL or PCL reconstruction where this type of structured brace has been recommended. Follow the treating team's guidance on fit, wear time and range-of-motion settings.

Is the brace easy to put on?
The thigh and calf sections open fully, allowing the brace to be wrapped around the leg rather than pulled over the foot. Four adjustable straps then secure it in position.

How tight should it feel?
The brace should feel secure without causing pain, numbness, tingling or excessive pressure. The hinges should remain aligned alongside the knee joint when walking and bending.

Do I need a Left or Right version?
Yes. Select Left or Right according to the knee requiring support.

Can I use it for sport?
Its suitability for sport depends on the injury, rehabilitation stage and required level of control. It should not be used simply to return to activity before the knee is sufficiently rehabilitated.

Does the brace contain latex?
No. Current product information states that this brace is latex free.
