Product type
A manual wheelchair is a mobility device that is propelled by the user or an attendant. It typically consists of a seat, backrest, footrests, and wheels, and is designed to provide individuals with limited mobility the ability to move independently. Manual wheelchairs can be made from various materials, including aluminum, steel, and composite materials, ensuring a balance between durability and weight.

When choosing a manual wheelchair, consider the user's specific needs, including weight capacity, seat width, and overall dimensions. It's important to specify the type of frame (folding or rigid), as well as any additional features such as adjustable footrests or armrests. Certifications for safety and durability may also be relevant, depending on the intended use. Always request a quote based on the quantity needed and any custom specifications.
