Coyote Resilergy™️

Coyote Resilergy™️ is a composite material, allowing for even more range of motion while still providing the same support as the Original Strut AFO.

There are also lower weight ranges for the Resilergy™️ due to its less rigid characteristics. 

Using ProComp® in Dynamic AFOs

Coyote typically makes our dynamic strut AFOs using Curbell Plastics ProComp®. This material gives us extra dynamic response in the toe while maintaining adjustability.
Exclusive ProComp® Carbon Reinforced Polypropylene

The Strut Kit Includes

Purchase struts and tooling from Coyote, then fabricate in your own facility OR alternatively, we can make the entire custom brace for you in our Central Fabrication Lab.

The demo samples are to help decide the best flex option for the patient. The Fitting Kit is for trial only and are meant to be replaced with standard product. Larger sample kits will be available as more strut flexes become available.

The strut is designed for average daily use; walking, working, hiking, biking, golfing, etc. (has not been tested with running).

Great for foot drop; the Dynamic Strut AFO also improves gait.

Over time, the strut may wear out but is easy and inexpensive to replace.
