Drive Medical Bariatric Heavy-Duty Crutches
Drive Medical · Long-term / daily use
7/10 Fit Score
The heavy-duty pick. When 250 to 380 lb crutches are not enough, this steel pair carries up to 500 lb safely. Expect more weight in hand, which is the cost of the higher rating.
- Steel frame rated to 500 lb
- Extra-large non-skid tips for stability
- Contoured vinyl underarm pad, latex-free
- Limited lifetime warranty
- Heavier than aluminum (the trade-off for the weight rating)
- Sizing runs toward the lower end of the range
