Let me now introduce you to the popular manual wheelchair styles we provide.

1. Economical basic Manual wheelchair

This manual wheelchair typically features a carbon steel frame and comes with either 16-inch or 24-inch rear wheels. Its primary advantage is its affordability, making it suitable for many patients with limb disabilities. However, it is bulky and challenging to transport. This economical basic wheelchair is the mainstream product on the market. Based on our more than ten years of experience in wheelchair production and sales, 80% of end customers will purchase basic wheelchairs.

2.Lightweight Manual Wheelchair

These wheelchairs typically feature an aluminum alloy frame, weighing between 12 to 18 kg, making them easy to carry. Their lightweight design helps individuals with physical disabilities expand their mobility, facilitating travel on buses, subways, and airplanes. However, their passability is somewhat limited. To achieve a lighter weight and easier transport, these wheelchairs are generally smaller than standard models, with rear wheels often measuring 8 or 12 inches in diameter.

3.Heavy Duty Wheelchair

Heavy-duty wheelchairs are specifically designed for individuals with higher body weights, offering enhanced load-bearing capacity. These wheelchairs typically feature wider seat widths compared to standard models. While a standard wheelchair seat width ranges from 18 to 22 inches, heavy-duty wheelchairs often have seat widths of 24 inches or more.

4.Orthopedic wheelchair

Orthopedic wheelchairs are designed for patients recovering from lower limb issues and offer rehabilitation support in stages. Unlike wheelchairs for those with permanent disabilities, they feature adjustable leg rests—operated by a hydraulic system—to position the legs correctly for optimal recovery.
