Easily Adjusted in Height

For optimal sizing, the Drive Medical Adult Crutches have been designed so they're adjustable in height. The aids can be adjusted with a push pin, making it easy to alter your crutches' height. If you're looking to adjust the hand grip's height too, this can be done with a wing nut.

What Are Drive Medical Aluminium Underarm Crutches Made From?

The foundation of these Drive Medical Crutches is aluminium. The area that sits in the arm pit is premium-quality plastic that is lined with two soft and flexible thermoplastic rubber covers that are removeable.

The grip point at the mid-section of the crutch is also covered with a thick thermoplastic rubber layer that prevents hand fatigue and promotes a strong, continuous grip. The ferrules at the base of these crutches are made with highly dense and flexible rubber. 

Comfortable Design

Both the underarm bar and the hand grip are padded to ensure you remain comfortable throughout use. These crutches are latex-free, making them perfect for those who suffer from an allergy to the material. The pads are also highly durable, allowing you to remain comfortable whenever you use the aid.

Excellent price, fast delivery & easy to use
24 August 2024  |  Petra

I bought a pair of underarm crutches to take the weight off my feet - I have slipped disc and other back problems for which I am awaiting surgery. The height was easy to adjust, the crutches are solid, and I was able to go for a short walk without pain for the first time in years. As an elderly person, my alternative would be a walking frame, but my house is tiny so a walking frame would take up too much room and be unwieldy, and would also throw the body weight forward and increase pain. The crutches are a magnificent alternative!

Great product,value for money.

After breaking my ankle I knew I would need assistance with my recovery period when it was time for me to start walking again. The underarm crutches were ideal for this. I was impressed with their quality and studyness. They are easy to use & adjust. The price was very reasonable and they arrived on time. I recommend these crutches to anybody else that requires assisted walking.
Thankyou.

Good value crutches
22 November 2022  |  Stephen

Bought as I’m about to have an operation where weight must be kept off one leg for a few weeks. Decided these were a much better option than the new type hand crutches.

Height adjustment for both hand grips and length of crutches is very good. I am 6 foot one and extended to their maximum length when I have practiced with them they appear to be about right. Adjustment easy. Arrived very promptly and for the money seem to be very good value.
