SILICONE GRIP COVER - 1 unit

These handle pads are structurally manufactured from high-quality hypoallergenic silicone. They are easily washable components using water and neutral soap, allowing for periodic and hygienic maintenance of the contact surface.

Regarding compatibility, this component is exclusively developed to fit the oval geometry of the tubes and handles within the INDESmed catalog. It is a fully compatible spare part for the range of crutches, walking sticks, and walkers, being equally valid for models manufactured in aluminum or carbon fiber. Due to its technical design and specific anchoring system, it is not compatible with frames, walkers, or walking sticks from other manufacturers on the market.

These pads transform mobility by offering the perfect balance between skin protection, advanced grip, and comfort. The key benefit of these covers is their high-quality hypoallergenic silicone manufacturing, which guarantees soft and safe contact with the skin. This eliminates the risk of allergic reactions and ensures impeccable hygiene on forearm crutches and lightweight walking sticks, as they are easily interchangeable and washable pieces.

Their engineered texture offers a superior grip that prevents hand slippage and absorbs impact on the palm. Thanks to their design, they act as an effective protector that distributes pressure optimally, preventing calluses, hardness, or irritation from prolonged use of crutches for adults or walking sticks, making them the ideal ally in rehabilitation processes or for daily use.

The replacement process for this spare part on orthopedic crutches and support solutions is recommended every 6 months for optimal performance, being completed manually and easily through the following technical steps:

- Disassembling the cuff: On forearm crutches carbon fiber or aluminum models, it is necessary to loosen the rear safety screw to slide and remove the cuff from the top of the tube.
- Disassembling the ergonomic handle: The fixing screw of the grip must be loosened to slide the handle block upward until it is completely removed from the walking sticks or crutches.
- Replacing the silicone piece: The worn pad is removed, and the new cover is inserted by pressing firmly, ensuring that the silicone safety tab fits exactly into the hole of the original structure.
- Reinstalling the handle: The handle is placed back onto the tube, slid to the required height for each user, and the safety screw is tightened to guarantee the stability of the comfortable crutches setup.
- Final assembly of the cuff: To conclude the adjustment, the cuff is reinserted onto the tube, its position on the forearm is regulated, and the rear safety screw is firmly tightened.

These interchangeable covers are available in a color range of four colors: orange, purple, black, and gray, making it possible to precisely coordinate the tone of the grip with the color of the high-adherence tips, achieving a uniform and renewed aesthetic.

In addition to its visual versatility, the design of this silicone component ensures total integration with different mobility solutions. As the ideal complement to mitigate continuous pressure, this spare part is natively installed both on comfortable crutches and on the line of lightweight walking sticks, allowing shock absorption and joint comfort to be unified on any type of support selected for daily walking.

To guarantee the maximum performance of the products and prolong the lifespan of each component, it is recommended to follow these simple guidelines for daily care:

1. Recommended use and ergonomics
These 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 pieces periodically. Simply washing the surface using water and a neutral soap will be enough. The use of aggressive chemicals, alcohols, or solvents that could degrade the product materials must always be avoided.

3. Periodic inspection of components
It is recommended to inspect the condition of the pieces 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 that the supports continue to offer a completely protected walk.
