Key Features
Adjustable Shaft and Cuff Heights
Each crutch is equipped with an easily adjustable shaft and forearm cuff. Using a simple push-button mechanism, the height of the shaft and the cuff can be individually modified to suit the user’s requirements. This feature allows for a fully personalized fit, ensuring that the crutches can support a natural and ergonomic posture. Correct height adjustment reduces strain on the wrists, elbows, and shoulders, making walking more comfortable and efficient.
Ergonomic Hand Grips
The Bariatric Forearm Crutches feature slip-resistant hand grips that are ergonomically designed to provide comfort during prolonged use. These grips help reduce fatigue and improve stability by encouraging proper hand placement. The textured design ensures that the user maintains a secure hold, even when hands are wet or sweaty, enhancing overall safety.
Large Slip-Resistant Tips
To provide maximum support and traction, the crutches are fitted with oversized, slip-resistant tips. These tips improve stability across a variety of surfaces, including indoor flooring, outdoor pavements, and uneven terrain. They are designed to reduce the risk of slipping, giving the user confidence when moving around. Replacement tips are available under product code FER22MM, making maintenance simple and cost-effective.
Durable and Sturdy Construction
Constructed from high-quality steel, the Bariatric Forearm Crutches offer exceptional strength and reliability. The one-piece moulded plastic cuff and handgrip assembly adds durability while maintaining a comfortable fit. The entire surface of the crutches is easy to clean, making them suitable for home use, healthcare facilities, or outdoor environments. This combination of strength and low-maintenance design ensures a long-lasting mobility solution.
