Medial and lateral hinge stays deliver excellent structural support, while the enclosed tubular donut buttress provides targeted patellar stabilization. The neoprene-coated, 4-way stretch nylon fabric offers compression and flexibility, and piping along the thigh and calf areas prevents unwanted flexing of the support. The tapered back design ensures a comfortable fit, and the range of motion hyperextension stop is set at 170 degrees. Hinges are easily removable for custom fitting. Available in extended sizes 3XL, 4XL, and 5XL.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAvailable Sizes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3XL (SKU 6299KB): Knee circumference 21 to 24 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4XL (SKU 62999KB): Knee circumference 25 to 28 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5XL (SKU 629999KB): Knee circumference 29 to 32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedial and lateral hinge stays provide excellent structural support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnclosed tubular donut buttress for targeted patellar stabilization\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeoprene-coated, 4-way stretch nylon fabric for compression and flexibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePiping along thigh and calf areas prevents unwanted flexing of the support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTapered back design for a comfortable, secure fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRange of motion hyperextension stop at 170 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasily removable hinges for custom fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in extended sizes 3XL, 4XL, and 5XL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKUs: 6299KB (3XL), 62999KB (4XL), 629999KB (5XL)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Min-Knee by Knapp Medical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyle: Hinged knee brace with donut buttress\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHinge: Medial and lateral, removable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eButtress: Enclosed tubular donut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Neoprene-coated, 4-way stretch nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROM Stop: Hyperextension stop at 170 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSizes: 3XL (21 to 24 in), 4XL (25 to 28 in), 5XL (29 to 32 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of Origin: United States\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLarger individuals with knee circumferences in the 3XL to 5XL range who require a hinged knee brace for ligament support, sprain management, or post-surgical stabilization and have difficulty finding appropriately sized orthopedic bracing will find the Min-Knee's extended size range accommodates their needs without compromising support quality. Patients recovering from ACL, MCL, LCL, or meniscus injuries who have been prescribed a hinged knee brace for stabilization during rehabilitation will find the medial and lateral hinge stays provide the structural support needed to protect the healing joint during progressive weight-bearing and activity. Individuals with chronic knee instability or recurrent ligament sprains who need ongoing support during daily activity, work, or recreational use will find the 4-way stretch nylon and neoprene construction comfortable for extended wear while maintaining compression and structural integrity. Physical therapists and orthopedic clinicians who fit patients with extended-size knee bracing will find the removable hinges allow custom configuration to match the patient's specific range of motion requirements during different phases of rehabilitation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I measure for the correct size?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMeasure the circumference of the knee at the center of the kneecap. 3XL fits a knee circumference of 21 to 24 inches, 4XL fits 25 to 28 inches, and 5XL fits 29 to 32 inches. If your measurement falls at the upper end of a size range, consider sizing up for a more comfortable fit. Your orthotist or physical therapist can assist with accurate measurement and fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the hinges be removed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The hinges are easily removable, allowing the brace to be customized for the individual user's needs or adjusted during different phases of rehabilitation as directed by the treating clinician.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the hyperextension stop at 170 degrees mean?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe range of motion stop prevents the knee from extending beyond 170 degrees, which limits hyperextension of the joint. This is particularly important during the early stages of ligament rehabilitation when protecting the healing tissue from excessive extension forces is a clinical priority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat conditions is this brace designed to support?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis brace is designed for mild to moderate knee ligament joint pain, sprains, and strains, and for stabilization and compression support following ligament or meniscus injury or surgery.
