Dimensions of the parts of AMS LGX

Postby Lost Sheep » Sun Nov 26, 2017 9:09 pm

I have never seen an actual LGX in real life nor seed drawings to scale with dimensions.

Is there any resource where I could see dimensioned drawings of an AMS LGX (particularly interested in an 18cm x 12 mm model) showing the length and diameter of the tips, the rear tips and how the rear tip extenders fit and, of course, the length of the inflatable tubes deflated and inflated.

Or anyone who knows those dimensions?

AMS has got to have the design drawings, but I do not expect they have them posted on the internet. But if they do, could someone point me in that direction please?

Thanks, all.

Hi Sheep,
Dr Bruce Garber in Philly has written two really informative papers with the info you are looking for. Completely informative about both manufacturers products. Look for these two papers listed towards the bottom. Hope this helps.
2 LGX Failures. 1 Titan failure. Best Dr's in Ct. cause much pain and swelling. Saw Dr Eid and had Titan 24 +1 installed. No pain or swelling. Back in business in 14 days !

I read one of his papers comparing the AMS CX, AMS LGX and Coloplast Titan, but do not recall that detailed dimensions were included. I will look at it again.

You suggested that links were in your post, but I do not see them.

Thanks for the reminder.
