Self-Propelled Steel Wheelchair - 18" Seat

Product details

The Self-Propelled Steel Wheelchair uses a chrome-plated steel frame with double crossbars to increase strength where it matters most. The construction supports a maximum user weight of 115 kg (18 stone) while keeping the overall unit weight at 20 kg, making it steady in use yet manageable for lifting into a car or moving at home. The frame folds, so the chair stores more easily in a car boot or small space when not in use.

Seating comfort comes from double-thickness reinforced upholstery and moulded armrests that support relaxed sitting for longer periods. The detachable armrests allow transfers from the side, and the swing-away footrests move out of the way for forward transfers, so carers and users can position themselves with less strain.

Mobility and everyday handling focus on practical parts: large 600 mm (24") solid rear wheels and 200 mm (8") solid front wheels give a steady feel outdoors without the need for inner tubes. Push-to-lock wheel brakes keep the chair stable during transfers or when you want to sit securely, and the solid tyres reduce maintenance needs.

Dimensions are clear to help you check fit through doorways and into vehicles: the chair has a seat width of 450 mm (18"), a front seat height of 510 mm (20") and a rear seat height of 470 mm (18.5"). Overall measurements and the chair's folding ability make it a practical option for most everyday environments. The product carries a one year parts warranty and a two year frame warranty for added peace of mind.
