Tamarack Prosthetic Liner Patch with GlideWear (Authentic)



Tamarack Prosthetic Liner Patch with GlideWear introduces innovative technology aimed at decreasing friction between irritated areas of your residual limb and your prosthetic device. This patch is designed for amputees experiencing discomfort or skin breakdown caused by friction between their limb and components such as prosthetic liners, stump socks, or shrinkers.

The Tamarack Prosthetic Liner Patch with GlideWear features a dual-layer construction using a low-friction textile, engineered to facilitate a smooth gliding motion that effectively reduces shear stress during normal movements while wearing your prosthesis. This motion helps to dissipate forces that could otherwise lead to skin irritation or the development of ulcers. Made primarily from a blend of 85% nylon and 15% spandex, the fabric conforms easily to the contours of your skin.

This liner patch is suitable for above knee (AKA), below knee (BKA), and arm amputees. It can be strategically placed on areas such as the knee cap, front tibia bone, side fibula bone, end of the femur, or the back of the knee, among others, to provide targeted protection and comfort.


Prosthetic Liner Patch Features:


  • Dual-layer gliding action absorbs shear stress to prevent skin irritation.
  • Super easy to use for immediate relief; durable and reusable.
  • Provides targeted relief upon application.
  • Stays in place throughout the day for continuous comfort.
  • Suitable for all amputation levels to alleviate discomfort under socks, prosthetic liners, and shrinkers.
  • Compatible with all major prosthetic liner manufacturers including Alps South, Otto Bock, Ohio Willow Wood, and Ossur.
  • Available in three options: circles, small, and large.
  • Sold in packs of two patches per poly bag.

1 Question & 1 Answer
from Casper, WY asked:
May 14, 2014
I wear a "Winter's Gel" liner from Alps. (The same liner that Winter the Dolphin uses) The company states that you cannot use any petroleum products on the inside of the liner because the gel will literally disintegrate. Will I be able to use this product?

Larry, I we emailed the manufacturer of GlideWear and this was his answer to your question: I'm aware that petroleum products are contraindicated for gel liners. Yes, he can absolutely use the GlideWear Patch. In fact, the prosthetist who developed Winters Gel is a big advocate for GlideWear.
