Drive Medical STD24ECDDA-SF Bariatric Wheelchair 450 Lb

Product Description

The DRIVE MEDICAL STD24ECDDA-SF is a heavy-duty bariatric wheelchair built for users requiring a higher weight capacity and reinforced structural support. The carbon steel frame incorporates a dual cross brace design that supports a 450-pound weight capacity. A triple-coated chrome finish resists chipping and simplifies maintenance. The seat measures 24 inches wide and 18 inches deep, with a seat-to-floor height that adjusts between 17.5 and 19.5 inches via a standard dual axle, allowing easy transition from standard to hemi-level positioning. Detachable desk arms, swing-away footrests, and push-to-lock wheel locks are included as standard equipment. Licensed durable medical equipment suppliers and rehab equipment technicians are the typical installing professionals for this chair.

This wheelchair is suited for bariatric patients in residential care, skilled nursing facilities, outpatient rehab centers, and home health settings. The 24-inch rear wheels with chrome hand rims support self-propulsion. The 8-inch front casters adjust in three positions and run on no-maintenance sealed precision bearings. Double embossed vinyl upholstery keeps cleaning straightforward in clinical environments. The folded dimensions of 42 inches by 12.5 inches by 36 inches allow storage in standard vehicle trunks and facility closets. Tool-free adjustable length riggings on the footrests simplify fitting for individual users.

Installation Notes

Assembly and fitting should be performed by a licensed durable medical equipment supplier, rehab technology supplier, or trained home health professional. Before adjusting axle position or replacing footrest riggings, engage the wheel locks and ensure the chair is on a flat, stable surface. Armrests and footrests are tool-free detachable, but verify all locking tabs are fully engaged before the chair is occupied. Follow applicable facility infection-control protocols when cleaning vinyl upholstery surfaces between patient uses.
