The popularity of the ALPSLOCK Flat Bottom can be easily attributed to its
proven reliability and smooth operation. Users can take advantage of its ease of
use and quiet mechanism. This lightweight locking device made of Glass
Reinforced Nylon exhibits better wear characteristics than delrin or aluminum.
The tight tolerances maintained at ALPS ensure that the serrations of the pin
move securely through the one-way gear. For additional comfort while sitting for
extended periods, the user can easily disengage the pin by pushing the side
mounted release button to quickly relieve ten-sion. The convenient one-way gear
allows the user to push in or wind the limb into the socket. This is
particularly helpful for users with excess residual tissue. A unique feature of
this type of lock is that if foreign material or clothing get caught in the
gear, the housing can be removed freeing the pin. This eliminates the
possibility of having to cut the socket. The ALPSLOCK Flat Bottom (S496-W) can
be used with laminated or thermoplastic sockets.
