TES AK Belt Measuring Instructions:
Measure the circumference of your above the knee socket around the
top of the brim (1" below the inside brim) and use that measurement
to determine which size your AK prosthesis needs based on the chart
below. If the circumference at the top of your prosthesis is
significantly smaller than a "mid-socket" circumference please use an
average of the two circumferences.
