Key Features of the ST-CU13 Alternating Pressure Air Seat Cushion
🏗️
Medical-Grade PVC / TPU Air Cell Construction
Manufactured from durable medical-grade PVC mixed with TPU, the ST-CU13 air cells are designed to withstand daily institutional use. The puncture-resistant material ensures long service life even in high-turnover care environments. The mosaic air cell design adapts to body contours for optimal pressure redistribution.
⚡
Alternating Pressure — Anti-Decubitus Protection
The alternating pressure mechanism continuously shifts load contact points across the sitting surface, stimulating blood flow and significantly reducing the risk of pressure injuries. The ST-CU13 is an effective anti-decubitus solution for wheelchair users with limited mobility, post-surgical patients, and elderly individuals in long-term care.
💪
315 lbs / 143 kg Load Capacity — Bariatric-Friendly Design
Rated at 315 lbs (143 kg), the ST-CU13 is engineered for a broader range of users than most portable wheelchair cushions. The reinforced air cell matrix and durable PVC construction maintain structural integrity under heavier loads without compromising comfort or pressure distribution performance.
📦
Complete Kit — Inflation Pump, Repair Kit & Cover Included
Every unit ships as an all-inclusive kit: the ST-CU13 inflatable air seat cushion, standard cover, hand inflation pump, repair kit, and operating instructions. No additional tools or accessories required — ready for immediate use by caregivers and healthcare facilities. This complete-package approach simplifies procurement for B2B distributors and institutional buyers.
📐
5 Size Options — Custom Sizes Available
Available in 5 standard sizes from 41 × 41 cm to 51 × 46 cm, with a uniform 7 cm cell height. Custom sizes and configurations are available via OEM/ODM service for distributors with specific market requirements. A properly sized cushion is essential for achieving optimal pressure redistribution.
🔧
Easy Maintenance — Repair Kit Included
The included repair kit allows quick field repairs of minor punctures. The standard cover is machine washable at 30°C. The cushion body wipes clean with germicidal soap — no machine washing or tumble drying. This low-maintenance design supports high-frequency use in institutional settings without excessive operational overhead.

06 · FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions for B2B Buyers
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for the ST-CU13?
Standard MOQ is 10 units for wholesale orders. For OEM/customized orders with private labeling, MOQ starts at 50 units. Flexible MOQ terms are available for established B2B partners — contact our export team to discuss your volume requirements.
How does the alternating pressure mechanism work?
The ST-CU13’s alternating pressure design uses interconnected air cells that allow air to redistribute dynamically as the user shifts weight. Unlike static foam cushions, the air cell structure continuously varies contact pressure points, promoting blood circulation and reducing the risk of pressure injuries — a proven anti-decubitus strategy widely used in clinical settings.
Can I customize the size or material of the cushion?
Yes. As an experienced medical seat cushion manufacturer, we offer custom size configurations and material upgrades (PVC to TPU) through our OEM/ODM service. MOQ for custom specifications starts at 50 units. Contact our team with your target dimensions, and we will provide a custom quotation.
What is the weight limit of the ST-CU13?
The ST-CU13 is rated at 315 lbs / 143 kg. The cushion must be properly sized to the individual user for optimal performance. As a bariatric-friendly wheelchair cushion supplier, we also offer reinforced custom configurations for users requiring higher load capacity — inquire about OEM options.
What certifications does the ST-CU13 carry?
As a professional wheelchair cushion supplier, Satcon Medical operates under ISO quality management systems. CE and FDA documentation are available upon request for specific product configurations. All products undergo quality inspection before shipment with a 12-month limited warranty.
How is the cushion repaired if it develops a leak?
Every ST-CU13 includes a repair kit with patch film and operating instructions. Minor punctures can be located by submerging the over-inflated cushion in water (air bubbles reveal the leak point), then patched and tested within minutes. This field-repair capability is essential for institutional buyers managing large equipment fleets — minimizing downtime and replacement costs.
