Product Details

Our Forearm Crutches have specially contoured grips which spread pressure evenly, greatly improving user comfort.

This makes them significantly easier on the hands than conventional handgrips.

Both the upper and lower shafts adjust in length, meaning they can be set to suit almost any individual.

The crutches also provide an alternative to the standard issue grey.

Sold in pairs, the Forearm Crutches remain among the best sellers at Essential Aids.

Ferrule diameter: 21mm (3/4 inch).

Height to handle: 660-890mm (26-35 inches).

Handle to cuff: 230-310mm (9-12 inches).

Cuff size 8 x 10cm (3 x 4 inches).

Max user weight: 100kg (16 stone).

    Great for my son

    Review by C Jones Posted on 15/12/2017 08:21:22
    The crutches were for my son, who when using nhs-supplied crutches, had damaged a nerve in his wrist, thus paralysing his hand. With rest his hand is improving, and he finds the crutches which you supplied to be far more comfortable than the others, and crucially, they are not damaging his wrist. We would give the crutches a rating of five out of five.

    Fast delivery and good crutces

    Review by W Jones Posted on 24/02/2015 09:01:31
    Needed these forearm crutches after a fall resulting in multiple fractures, hands as well as hip. Delivery was prompt, the crutches are well made and the hand mouldings were kind to my injured hands and wrists.

    Good crutches

    Review by J Martindale Posted on 22/09/2014 11:31:56
    The forearm crutches are very good quality and I have been using the elbow crutches every day to get around. They have to take a daily bashing and stand up (if you will forgive the quip) very well.
