The rigid functional brace OA Adjuster 3 Lateral is a reinforced brace with an aluminum frame and innovative Lock and Load Technology™, designed to correct axial misalignments in the knee joint due to osteoarthritis. The combination of durable materials and technological solutions ensures long-term durability, stability, and effectiveness for varus and valgus deformities.

The brace features a low-profile design and a four-point (4 points of leverage) fixation system, allowing for reliable knee stabilization during daily activities and sports. The design includes movable attachments on the inner side of the frame and soft telescopic pads in the hinge for added comfort and reduced joint load.
