Size, Dimensions, and Compatibility of the INDESmed Open Cuff

Our cuffs are structured in three available sizes to ensure a precise fit according to the volume of the user's arm. The D1 variant is intended for small or child use and features an inner diameter of 7 cm; the D2 size is established as the standard for adults with an inner diameter of 9 cm; and the D3 version corresponds to the large size with an inner diameter of 10 cm. By default, orthopedic crutches in sizes S, M, and L come equipped with the D2 size cuff, while XL size models incorporate the D3 cuff from the factory.
Regarding its compatibility, these parts are specifically designed to exclusively adapt to the structure of INDESmed crutches, being fully valid for both aluminum and carbon fiber models.

Main Benefits of the INDESmed Open Cuff

The INDESmed open cuff has been developed to maximize comfort and freedom of movement in your daily travels. Being an ultra-lightweight piece, it significantly reduces the total weight of the supports, which helps prevent muscle overload and fatigue in the arms, making walking require much less effort in your routine.

Its main advantage is the ergonomics and comfort it brings during walking. Its open design allows the forearm to be released with total ease at any time, offering a comfortable support that adapts to the anatomy of your arm. Furthermore, by allowing a precise height adjustment, it makes it easier for you to position the piece at the ideal distance, about 2 cm below the codo, which is essential to avoid annoying pressure, continuous chafing, or skin irritation, guaranteeing a completely fluid, comfortable, and safe walk.

Why Choose the INDESmed Open Cuff Over Other Alternatives?

1. High-resistance polyamide
Unlike generic market cuffs made with injection-molded plastics, our component uses high-resistance structural polyamide. This advanced engineering technical material guarantees optimal flexibility and extreme durability under intensive daily use.

2. Patented adjustment system
Traditional crutches limit cuff adjustment to predetermined holes spaced several centimeters apart, forcing the user to adopt uncomfortable positions. The adjustment system patented by INDESmed allows a continuous and millimetric displacement along the tube, achieving an exact precision to place the piece exactly at the recommended 2 cm below the elbow.

3. Ergonomic open design
Many alternatives on the market opt for completely closed designs that trap the arm and are difficult to release in the event of a fall. Our open cuff provides just the right and necessary lateral support to guide the gait naturally, guaranteeing a clean release of the forearm and total independence in daily activities.

4. Exclusive oval integration
Standard universal spare parts use circular rings that adapt poorly to the tubes, causing looseness, unexpected twists, and annoying noises when walking. This piece is specifically machined to tightly fit the oval anatomy of INDESmed tubes (both in aluminum and carbon fiber), completely eliminating vibrations and ensuring a unified block of high stability.

Customize and Combine Your INDESmed Open Cuff

Our open cuff is available in an elegant black finish and structured in two size options to perfectly adapt to the user's anatomy: an adult variant and a child variant. It is a spare accessory fully compatible with all aluminum and carbon fiber crutches in our catalog, allowing you to keep your supports always up to date. Furthermore, by being sold individually by units, you have the total flexibility to purchase exactly the quantity you need, whether to renew a single piece due to wear or to update both cuffs at the same time.
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 pieces 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 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 your supports continue to offer a completely protected walk.

INDESmed customer's reviews


Charlie - Perfect anatomical fit

Charlie

Perfect anatomical fit

It has completely eliminated the chafing I used to get on my forearms. INDESmed really understands ergonomics.

Thom - No more ruined jackets

Thom

No more ruined jackets

Most standard crutch cuffs have sharp or rough edges that ruin delicate clothing, but these are perfectly smooth. They look minimalist and modern, and changing the height takes just a few seconds.

Ron - Your cuffs can be fixed millimetrically

Ron

Your cuffs can be fixed millimetrically

All my compliments because the cuffs that must be fixed at 3 cm. above the elbow, with this millimetric adjustment system, now it is possible for me. With my previous crutches there was no way to do it!
