Fillauer is proud to offer the DuraShock Pylon as part of its extensive line of quality orthotic and prosthetic components.

The DuraShock Pylon is a new development in prosthetic technology. While shock/torsion reducing pylons have been available for several years, the DuraShock pylon offers several significant improvements over previous designs.

The main benefit of a shock/torsion reducing pylon is that it simulates the rotation and shock absorption of the natural limb during stance phase. All lower limb amputees benefit from shock/rotation reduction, especially transfemoral users, who require greater motion damping at heel strike since the knee and ankle are not present. Beneficial for everyday use, shock/torsion reduction is most noticeable during activities such as gardening, hiking, tennis, or golf.
