CRUTCH

CRUTCH ALUM YOUTH SZ ADJ 4'6"-5'2" is a medically certified, adjustable crutch designed for young users between 4 feet 6 inches and 5 feet 2 inches in height, supplied in pairs. Built with double extruded aluminum and a reinforced center tube for optimal load-bearing strength, it features a patented I-beam center post that restricts footpiece rotation to a 1.4 turn, ensuring the push-button adjustment remains visible and easy to use. The footpiece is secured using durable rivets from inside the tubing, offering superior stability over plastic connectors, while a long, virtually unbreakable stair deflector enhances safety on stairs and improves stress tolerance at all angles. Non-skid rubber tips provide reliable traction, and a built-in metal ring prevents excessive wear to extend service life. No assembly is required, as the crutches arrive fully accessorized and ready for immediate use.
