Interested in fabricating with silicone in your clinic, but unsure of where to begin?

This month’s newsletter from - The National Commission on Orthotics and Prosthetics Education (NCOPE) features an in-depth article by Mariya on silicone, covering its advantages as an O&P fabrication material, the different silicone types, and a three-level framework for adopting rolled silicone (HCR/HTV) into your in-house fabrication workflow, based on investment costs, machinery, and volume capabilities. It’s a must-read for anyone considering in-house fabrication with rolled silicone.

Challenging case and unsure about your design?

Use diagnostics to dial it in! Opting for a diagnostic frame, socket, or BOTH can help dial in your prosthetic design.

This is particularly valuable when fitting challenging presentations, upper-limb cases (...if you don't do UL often), or when you want a more innovative design. Clear materials are used for the clinical evaluation of the limb within the prosthesis. A diagnostic can help you get to a successful definitive prosthesis, save you from costly redesigns, and result in a satisfied patient.

This 14ELMT custom transradial (TR) prosthesis features a modern, multicolor spectral line frame design that is not only beautiful on the exterior, but also includes an AIR-fit system in the interior socket for user-adjustable suspension.

For this case, the Clinical team chose to use the AIR-fit system with dual bladders to solve two clinical challenges:
1) To mitigate sensitive nerve pain around the distal radius and ulna. The bladders help "unload" those locations.
2) To provide improved suspension as the patient sweats.

National Rehabilitation Awareness Week 🦾

Every step forward matters. And sometimes, comfort is what helps make that step possible.

A properly designed prosthetic liner can help cushion the residual limb, manage interface pressure, and support comfortable prosthesis wear—giving patients a better foundation to focus on what matters most: rehabilitation, mobility, and independence.

At 14th Element Fabrication, we’re passionate about the details that make a difference. Because better comfort can support better experiences.

Here’s to the patients putting in the work—and the clinicians and prosthetic professionals helping them move forward. ❤️

Upper-limb cases don’t always follow a familiar pathway.

For years, 14ELMT has supported prosthetists with specialized upper-limb fabrication and technical expertise. Now, through our collaboration with Patrick Prigge, CP and Upper Limb Consultants, clinicians can also access focused clinical support for complex cases—from early planning and component strategy to documentation, reimbursement, fitting, and troubleshooting.

The treating prosthetist stays at the center of care. We bring additional upper-limb expertise when it’s needed.

If you’re attending this year’s AAOP Academy Meeting, connect with us to learn how this collaboration can support your next upper-limb case.

DINO-tough and activity-specific! 🦖 🦾

This custom pediatric transradial prosthesis features a dinosaur-themed design with a distal biking attachment. The silicone socket includes our ELASTO-fit feature to make donning and doffing easier for a bulbous limb shape. We also added an embossed texture to the silicone socket in the frame cutout area to match the look of the exterior laminated sleeve.
