Ludomed’s back extension panel is an easy-to-use add-on that increases the length of our standard non-human primate jackets by approximately 2 inches. This detachable component is ideal when a jacket feels slightly tight, but moving to the next full size would be excessive.
Designed specifically for rhesus and cynomolgus monkeys, the extension panel aligns seamlessly with our jacket structure, providing added flexibility for studies where weight, growth, or implant positioning may affect jacket fit.
Key Applications
Mid-size adjustment between standard jacket sizes.
Accommodates weight gain during long-term studies.
Prevents the need to inventory extra jacket sizes.
Supports tethered or pocketed jackets needing extra dorsal room.
Ideal for implant or port placements near the upper back.
Animal Welfare & Refinement
Reduces tightness around the chest and back.
Maintains freedom of movement while improving restraint.
Ideal for reducing stress due to poorly fitted jackets.
Ordering & Customization
Back extension panels are available for all Ludomed non-human primate jacket sizes. Customizations (e.g., compatibility with jackets featuring pockets, sleeves, or tether plates) are available on request. Please contact us to specify the jacket model and size required.
