Angle-Adjust Arm Supports

Spex Angle-Adjust Arm Supports provide functional forearm and upper extremity support, and being both angle and height adjustable, the user has the precise support they require.

Like all Spex systems, the Angle-Adjust Arm Support has a modular approach, creating flexibility and takes into consideration the individual and unique needs of different clients. Available in either Quick-Release or Swing-Down, the Spex arm support system ensures that the user has easy access in and out of the chair for transfers.

Spex is designed to mount on almost any chair and seating system, and the arm support systems are no different! The Angle-Adjust Arm Supports are available with either a Seat Base Mount to mount directly to the seat base of the wheelchair, or with a Rail Mount to attach directly to the chair’s seat rail.

Couple your arm support with a Spex Lateral Thigh Support! We offer Arm and Thigh Support Combos where the arm and thigh support share the same mounting mechanism for a sleek and tidy “all-in-one” solution. These are available in all the same mechanism options (Quick-Release or Swing-Down) and mounting hardware (Seat Base or Seat Rail mounts).

Medifab is pleased to provide the most comprehensive special purpose car seat we’ve every introduced for children and teenagers, providing various kinds of extension accessories and multi-adjustable features to allow longer use by the child and to suit the wide spectrum of children’s needs.

The Carrot 3000 Car Seat is one of the safest child seats in the world, catering for safety and the importance of keeping the child in a safe and supported posture for travel and was was designed, engineered and built to provide optimal positioning & safety for children with insufficient head, trunk, and pelvic stability.
