Point Thumb

Brand: Point Design

The Point Thumb is a heavy-duty, passive articulating prosthetic thumb designed to be both lightweight and strong, using a novel ratcheting mechanism to lock into 11 unique positions of flexion.

Point Designs' prosthetic thumb is designed for patients with thumb loss who require a durable device and the ability for one-handed operation and various levels of flexion. The prosthesis is made of titanium and stainless steel, and comes with all necessary hardware for integration into a prosthetic socket.

Our thumb prosthesis is designed for people who have lost their thumb at or near the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint. It is a mechanical, passive device with a robust construction. The Point Thumb empowers people with partial thumb amputation by giving them more mobility, function, and independence.

Key Features

Anatomical Rotation and Flexion

It’s the only prosthetic thumb offering anatomical rotation around the MCP joint, closely mimicking natural thumb movement. This feature enhances grip and dexterity, allowing users to perform tasks with greater control and precision, especially in daily activities requiring fine motor coordination.

Lightweight and Durable Build

Made from titanium and stainless steel, the Point Thumb weighs just 28–38 grams depending on size, yet supports up to 68 kg of load. Its robust construction ensures long-term durability while remaining comfortable for everyday wear, even in demanding environments.

Patented Ratcheting Mechanism

The Point Thumb uses a unique ratcheting system that locks into 11 flexion positions. Users can adjust it single-handedly by pressing against a surface, with auto spring-back or button release for extension. This design promotes independence and ease of use for people with partial thumb loss.
