Elbows (earhooks) are only a part of the Behind The Ear hearing aids only, and are the curved piece that fits onto the front of the aid and will wrap around the of your ear. The tubing that runs to the custom earmold or to the stock ear peice is slipped onto the end of the Elbow. To help keep the tubing securely in place the Elbows have a flanged tip that grabs hold of the tubing.

Due to the fact that different models of BTE hearing aids use different sizes of Elbows it is a good idea to email us what model of BTE hearing aid you have. Our standard Elbow fits a wide variety of BTE hearing aid models.

It is very easy to change an Elbow, most Elbows just unscrew off the hearing aid.
Some hearing instruments have a 'push-on', snap-in style of Elbow.
If your aid is one of these types you will have to use a heat gun to warm up the old Elbow, allowing for its removal.
