User questions & answers

Question:	at 5'2" and 110 lbs, should I order the adult or child size? also, are the hand grips and cuffs black for all sizes
Answer:	I ordered the adult size for a 18 year old who is 5:4 and 150 pounds. They are adjustable and light weight, not quite sure if grips are black on all crutches. I hope this helps.
Question:	If I want to buy replacement tips for these crutches, what size do I need to buy? Also, will these tips fit: http://www.amazon.com/Hi-Trac-Industries
Answer:	7/8" fit perfectly. I just got mine.
Question:	I ordered these forearm crutches for my mother, but when I received only 1 crutch inside instead the box. Isn't this supposed to be 2 crutches
Answer:	I did the same thing. I was under the impression that it came with two and only received one. You have to put quantity 2 in order to get 2 of them.
Question:	Does anyone have any suggestions for adjusting the size of the cuffs? I have thin arms and the cuffs are way too big
Answer:	I use two zip ties (hooked end to end) to go around the "bent out" area at the end of one of the cuffs. I can easily slip my hands in and out, and when I lift the crutches, without holding on, they do not fall off my arms. And the plastic zip ties hey last forever. Hope this helps

User questions & answers

Question:	I need crutch for a long terms. I weigh 289lb do you sell crutches that hold 300lb. does the arm and legs adjust I'm 6 ft tall.I want new crutches
Answer:	My husband used these - he is 6'3" and was about 200 lbs at the time he needed them (recovering from spinal injury). I don't know what they are weighted for though
Question:	can the forearm cuffs be adjusted at all, or do they sell pads to go in them
Answer:	The firearm cuffs are not adjustable. They don't come with pads. I'm pretty sure that you can purchase pads for them.
Question:	would these crutches work for a 5'6" person
Answer:	The crutches I have would not work for that height but they can be ordered to accommodate a specific height.
Question:	Hi the hand grip is it harc plastic
Answer:	My grips were thick foam not plastic, they supported me well were durable. I am 6'4" was 310 poounds at the time. The forearm piece is a rubber like material. You need to adjust each side to fit. My right forearm is larger then my left i squeezed the left one to fit. Due to the way I was initially walking neede one side longer than the other. I used a permanent marker marker an R and L on the top end cap to keep from mixing them up. I did need to replace the bottom rubber pieces after two months not an issue they cost under $5 for the pair at the local pharmacy. I don't need them any more I have donated them to the local VFW they are still getting used by big guys and holding up well. A great buy!!

User questions & answers

Question:	How wide is the cuff opening? Will it stay on a normal person's forearm when not holding it? Can you adjust it
Answer:	I have not measured the cuff in question. I have several pairs of crutches with this type of cuff, they are all the same dimensions. and I have a very large forearm, I am 6'2" and weigh 260 lbs. I know of no forearm crutches that will stay on my are when I let go of them. What I do with the crutches in question is to buy an elastic pony tail hair band. I get on that is about 3/8th inches in thickness and long enough to fit tightly across the gap in the cuff. The cuff has a reverse bend near the opening and this is sufficient to hold the hair band in place. A little testing with the band size will show the correct size fo your crutch. The bands are very inexpensive whereever women's hair products are sold. With the bands in place the crutches hang nicely from my forarms whenever I wish to let them go and use my hand for some task. The pick up and use the crutches I simply insert my hand and arm into the banded cuff from the top. In the case of heavy sleeves or other obstructions simply peel off the band and insert the forearm into the side opening of the cuff and slip the band back in place on the cuff. On the negative side the cuff sleeves, which are made of spring steal and covered with a plastic film for protection and comfort. The plastic rips along the edges of the cuff and doesn't last very long. I also have experience a few occasions where the cuff springs snap. This is probably due to my larger than average forearms.
Question:	Are the bottoms hollow or solid
Answer:	The Tips are solid up against the shaft. I love these they are quiet sturdy and have lasted me a long time.
Question:	What is the lowest and highest distance between the cuff and handle
Answer:	Adult size (recently purchase from Amazon): from center of cuff, to center of handle ranges from 9.5" to 11.5". Youth size: the range is 8" to 10". Guardian crutches are my 15 year old Grandson's favorite, and most comfortable.
Question:	how high do they adjust to from floor to handle in inches
Answer:	The lowest is 29 inches. The highest setting is 35 inches. from floor to handle.

User questions & answers

Question:	I am 5'2" so would the adult medium or the youth work better for me
Answer:	Adult medium. Just dont extend the legs as much
Question:	Is this price for 8 pairs of crutches as stated
Answer:	No it is not. you just get 1 pair, 2 crutches. They are very good except I would like a softer rubber on the bottom of the crutch. it makes too much noise when using them. Eventually I would have to change this for less noise. otherwise it is a great buy.
Question:	How wide is the handgrip? I'll need at least 4" (inside) to fit my existing handgrip pads
Answer:	These are standard sized crutches that accept standard sized pads. I believe they should fit just fine.
Question:	does this go up to 5'3 inches
Answer:	They are for people approx 5'2" to 5'10". They stand 4'4" when fully extended.

Product description

Fitting Guide: 1. Crutch Height: To foot-piece clockwise 1/4", and pull the foot-piece down until the bottom is at the desired patient height. Rotate the foot-piece counter-clockwise to lock leg in place. 2. Handgrip: Adjust the handgrip so there is a slight bend at the patient's elbow (approximatively 100). Set and tighten the adjusting bolts. 3. Check fit: With the bottom of the crutches slightly outside and in front of the patient's feet, the patient should be able to lean forward comfortably, resting on the underarm supports. Crutches should not be so long that the patient must stand completely erect. Caution: Have your doctor or therapist demonstrate the proper use. Replace the crutch tips with the proper size if they should become worn. Periodically check the tightness of the hand grip wing nuts. If crutch becomes damaged replace immediately. Be careful when walking on wet or slippery surfaces.
