Z-12 Adjustable OA Knee Brace

Sizes: xs, s, m, l, xl, xxl

This dual upright design features an adjustable condyle building up to an additional 12° of correction into the brace. The Z-12 is for a patient with an active lifestyle who may need additional support from a dual-upright brace due to ligament instability. The adjustable condyle will allow patients to make minor load adjustments by sliding the loading lever through seven settings. The Z-12 frame is made of magnesium, making it our lightest-weight OA brace.
