Drive Medical Aluminium Underarm Crutches for Adults
Although wooden crutches and walking sticks are beautiful, they are usually quite heavy. This is the last thing you want when you've suffered from an injury! The Drive Medical Aluminium Underarm Crutches for Adults are lighter than wood so you won't feel like you're lugging your support around with you.
The Aluminium Underarm Crutches provide you with additional stability and durability to prevent further injury. With its double-extruded centre tube, the weight-bearing area is extremely strong. This ensures the underarm crutches are highly durable and sturdy to help keep you safe.

What Are Drive Medical Aluminium Underarm Crutches Made From?
The foundation of these Drive Medical Crutches is aluminium. The area that sits in the arm pit is premium-quality plastic that is lined with two soft and flexible thermoplastic rubber covers that are removeable.
The grip point at the mid-section of the crutch is also covered with a thick thermoplastic rubber layer that prevents hand fatigue and promotes a strong, continuous grip. The ferrules at the base of these crutches are made with highly dense and flexible rubber.
Excellent Safety Features
Armpit crutches are only as supportive as the ferrules they use. The Aluminium Underarm Walking Crutches have been designed with non-skid, jumbo-sized vinyl contoured tips. These provide you with a more stable base while you're using the crutches, which helps reduce the risk of slips and falls.
Easily Adjusted in Height
While wooden old-fashioned crutches are highly supportive, these modern aluminium Drive Medical Crutches for Adults can be adjusted in height in one inch increments for optimal sizing. The aids are adjusted with a push pin, making them easy to alter whenever necessary. If you're looking to adjust the height of the hand grip too, this can be completed with a wing nut.
Comfortable Design
Both the underarm bar and the hand grip are padded to ensure you remain comfortable throughout use. These are free from latex, making them perfect for those who suffer from an allergy to the material. The pads are also highly durable, allowing you to remain comfortable whenever you use the aid.
