Lightweight Transit Wheelchair

Detailed description

Lightweight aluminium frame gives a good balance of strength and low weight so the chair is easier to handle. This is an attendant-propelled transit wheelchair fitted with attendant-operated cable brakes to help the person pushing manage speed and stopping. The seat and back are made from a canvas padded material that provides steady, simple support for short- to medium-length use.

Height-adjustable, swing-away footrests make leg positioning and transfers smoother, while the desk-style armrests and side panels increase comfort and a sense of security. The chair rides on solid front and rear castors for a stable feel across typical indoor and outdoor surfaces, and quick-release footrests and a half-folding back help it reduce to a compact package.

Practical dimensions and weight make this chair simple to store and transport. The chair has a seat width of 460 mm and seat height of 480 mm, folds down to compact dimensions for car boot or cupboard storage, and is available in Blue or Red. The maximum user weight is 125 kg, so please check this against the user’s needs before purchase.
