Description
Karman VIP515TP-18 Tilt-in-Space Foldable Transporter Chair
The Karman Lightweight Tilt-in-Space VIP-515-TP is a revolutionary tilt chair that weighs just 34 pounds in transport.This type of a chair redistributes pressure to the lower back as well as under the legs and it has a 0-35º weight-shifting center-of-gravity adjustment. The VIP-515-TP s frame is made of a super durable yet lightweight T-6 aluminum and it tilts with the use of gas cylinders. By redistributing pressure away from your lower back and under your legs, the 515 reduces the chances of bedsores forming. It does this via an intelligent 0° - 35° center-of-gravity weight shifting adjustment mechanic that sets it apart from the competition.
Coating the frame is a special anti-bacterial paint, and the Aegis upholstery is both anti-bacterial and anti-staining. Additionally, a seat belt restraint is included for added security.
Comfort is also a prime feature of this transport wheelchair: - The specially designed ergonomic head pillow provides the perfect level of support and comfort. Footrests with new swing in and away functionality make entering and exiting the wheelchair a much easier process, and the full length flip-back armrests are both height adjustable and removable for the ultimate in customizable comfort. Optional elevating legrests increase the heights of comfort you can reach with this wheelchair.
With all of these impressive features - including an exceptionally durable T-6 aluminum frame and exclusive perfectly matched gas cylinders that power the tilting action of the chair - the VIP-515 transporter wheelchair earns every bit of its reputation as a revolutionary entry in the manual wheelchair market.

Use this for legrest extensions and seat height. - SRP to Knee (Seat Reference Point to Knee):
This will determine the seat depth. - Elbow to SRP (Elbow to Seat Reference Point):
Measure this width with the arm in a 90 degree angle at the elbow and the shoulder in a neutral position. - Shoulder Height:
This will determine the height and the style of the back panel or the start for a custom back. - Head Height:
