Permobil TiLite Twist Manual Wheelchair
Overview:
The Permobil TiLite Twist Manual Wheelchair is a rigid paediatric option that supports independence, exploration and growth. With built-in adjustability and a lightweight aluminium frame, it’s designed specifically for children – with no need to purchase separate growth kits.
Description
Engineered from the ground up for kids, the Permobil TiLite Twist Manual Wheelchair combines functional design with clinical adaptability. Its built-in growth system allows the seat width to expand by up to 5.1 cm (2”) and the seat depth by up to 7.6 cm (3”) – without additional parts or costly upgrades.
The Tru-Fit system enables fine-tuned adjustments across multiple components, helping therapists achieve the right postural support and propulsion setup for each child. A centre-mounted, height-adjustable push handle is available for carer support and can be easily removed when not in use.
The TiLite Twist is compatible with a range of frame colours, camber and front frame angle options, making it both highly functional and child-friendly in appearance.
