Your Liner
The boring but important stuff
The cushioning layer of a Your® Liner is 100% made of silicone. We provide 3 different types of silicones: a low Shore hardness "Relax", a medium hardness "Active", and a higher hardness "Dynamic". Please contact your local MotionTech representative to receive a set of Pads displaying the hardness of these materials.
All our silicones are certified skin-safe, and have been tested and evaluated according to EN ISO 10993-1.
Your® Liners include a made-to-measure fabric cover to provide enhanced durability, and facilitate donning & doffing.
For reasons of hygiene and safety, we recommend replacing the Your® Liner after 6 months at the latest, regardless of the condition of the material. The maximum recommended service life is limited to 6 months to ensure proper function, safety and hygiene.
However, the actual shelf life may also depend on the individual conditions of use, care and handling. The Your® Liner is covered by a 6-month product warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. This guarantee applies in addition to the statutory warranty rights. Please note that wear and tear due to normal use is not covered by the guarantee.
Notes on use and service life:
Liners made of softer silicone (Relax) are more comfortable, but can wear out more quickly under intensive use than liners made of medium (Active) or harder silicone (Dynamic).
For patients with increased mechanical stress (e.g. high activity level, high body weight, short residual limb structure leading to high pressure), the use of a liner made of Dynamic silicone is recommended to ensure the best possible function and safety during the recommended 6-month period of use.
