OPEN/CLOSE CUFF FOR FOREARM CRUTCHES

Our hinged arm cuff is configured in a universal one-size-fits-all format with technical dimensions of 9.9 cm in its forearm opening zone and a length of 20.5 cm in the inner half-circumference of its contact surface. With an exact weight of just 86 grams, this component offers a height adjustment range of -3.5 cm, allowing you to accurately adjust and position the accessory according to each user's arm length.

Regarding its compatibility, this piece has been exclusively designed to adapt to the characteristic oval geometry of the INDESmed crutches tube range, being fully compatible with both aluminum and carbon fiber models. Due to this specific anchoring design, it is not compatible with, nor is its securement guaranteed on, traditional cylindrical tube crutches or those from other manufacturers on the market.

The INDESmed hinged arm cuff transforms daily mobility by offering a perfect balance between safety, extreme lightness, and personalized comfort. The key benefit of this cuff for crutches is its tilting design, which allows you to instantly alternate between open mode and closed arm cuff mode according to your needs.

With an ultra-light weight of only 86 grams, this accessory prevents muscle fatigue during walking. Furthermore, the contact area with the arm features a special polished finish in a single piece, free of joints or seams, which effectively prevents chafing and skin irritation. Its universal one-size-fits-all structure gently conforms to changes in forearm thickness, guaranteeing an optimal and comfortable fit throughout the year, whether in winter over thick warm clothing or in summer with short-sleeved clothes.

1. Structural polyamide
Unlike conventional injection-molded plastic cuffs, the INDESmed hinged arm cuff is manufactured from high-resistance polyamide. This technical material guarantees structural flexibility that does not deform under pressure or lose its properties with temperature changes.

2. Integrated -3.5 cm regulation
Market alternatives usually come fixed at a single standard height relative to the grip. Our design allows you to correct the position of the cuff for crutches with a downward adjustment range of up to 3.5 cm, ensuring that the support point aligns exactly with your arm's anatomy for optimal load distribution.

3. Exclusive oval anchoring
Most universal spare parts use round clamps that wobble or pivot on the tube. This piece is specifically machined for the oval geometry of INDESmed tubes, ensuring a solid and unified block between the cane and the forearm that completely eliminates annoying noises and unstable movements during walking.

4. Tilting system free of maintenance vs. mechanical hinges
Traditional closed cuff systems usually include metal pins or complex mechanisms that rust, accumulate dirt, or jam easily. Our single-piece technical design offers a smooth and constant transition without the need for lubrication or moving parts prone to breaking.

Our hinged arm cuff is designed in a universal one-size-fits-all format that perfectly adapts to any user's anatomy. It is an accessory fully compatible with all the aluminum and carbon fiber crutches in our catalog, allowing you to combine it freely or add it to your current supports. Furthermore, being sold individually by units, you have the flexibility to purchase exactly the amount you need to customize your equipment to measure.

To guarantee the maximum performance of your products and prolong the lifespan of each component, we recommend following these simple daily care and maintenance guidelines:

1. Recommended use and ergonomics
Our accessories and spare parts are especially indicated for intensive, daily, or sports use in any type of environment. Their high-end design ensures an excellent response both in demanding activities and during daily routines.

2. Cleaning and preservation
To keep the properties and grip of the materials intact, it is advisable to clean the parts periodically. Simply washing the surface using water and a neutral soap will be enough. Always avoid using aggressive chemicals, alcohols, or solvents that could degrade the product materials.

3. Periodic inspection of components
We recommend inspecting the condition of your parts regularly to verify they maintain their original shape and correct attachment to the tube. Replacing components on time is essential to prevent loosening, guarantee efficient shock absorption, and ensure your supports continue to offer a completely protected walk.
