1.6 Liners and Locking Devices<br />

Vacuum-Jet – acting naturally.<br />

The system is characterized by an air deflation jet which is inserted into an M 36<br />

thread of a pyramid connector. This jet allows air deflation within the socket. The<br />

system does not only include the Vacuum-Jet, but also the new SoftSkin liner w/o<br />

distal attachment (SoftSkin S40 CL or SoftSkin S50 CL) as well as a proximal airtight<br />

knee sleeve. The system works perfectly for both, test- and definitive sockets.<br />

The fabrication set contains two different dummies for that purpose. Furthermore,<br />

there is an opportunity to easily retrofit an existing M36 socket connector to the<br />

new Vacuum-Jet system.<br />
