Quickie Ti Titanium
The Quickie® Ti Titanium is the latest addition to our family of ultra-lightweight rigid chairs.
Using lightweight titanium tubing, a minimalist design, and several patented features, our engineers have succeeded in developing the perfect balance between form and function.
With a chair weight averaging between 15 and 17 lbs., the Quickie Ti Titanium is the best choice for today's active user.
- The rear axle features 10cm (4") of centre-of-gravity adjustment in 1.3cm (1/2") increments. When a chair is not properly centered, it feels heavy, unresponsive, and sometimes "tippy". By using a 10cm (4") adjustment range that accommodates many different body types, this problem can be avoided.
- The Quickie Ti Titanium features new fold-down push handles. Push handles sometimes act like fish hooks when pulling a chair out of storage. In contrast, fold-down push handles allow the chair to slide out without hooking everything else.
- A special flat area on the axle-sleeve nut corrects toe-in and toe-out in three easy steps: Loosen the camber tube. Place a square against the flat area on the axle-sleeve nut and the ground. Re-tighten the camber tube. The wheels are now aligned.
- The axle plate features 7.5cm (3") vertical adjustment in 1.3cm (1/2") increments. This provides plenty of space to adjust wheel sizes, seat height and seat angle.
- The rear camber tube is secured to the axle plate with a special compression axle sleeve. The axle sleeve is held together with Torx® head screws. This advanced hardware is superior in design and holding power. A special tool kit containing Torx wrenches comes as standard with your chair.
The Titanium Advantage
Titanium alloy is approximately 3 times stronger than aluminum. This advantage in strength makes it possible to build a lighter, simpler frame. Titanium tubing also provides a more controlled rebound and superior torque strength. With an average weight of 16.9 lbs, the Quickie® Ti Titanium is Sunrise Medical's premium rigid-chair choice.
Patent-Pending Caster Pivot-Adjuster
To reduce excess weight and flutter, our engineers have eliminated the caster housing so that the caster fork now threads directly into the frame. A special pivot caster-adjuster allows the forks to pivot 16° in 2° increments. This feature enables the user to adjust the seat "slope" between 2.5 - 9cm (1" - 3.5") while maintaining a perpendicular caster-wheel/ground alignment.
Custom Tailored Frame Options
To ensure the best possible fit, our engineers have developed over 4,000 different frame configurations. Each frame can be customised in six different ways: frame angle (70°, 80°, 85°), frame inset (0cm/0" , 2.5cm/1", 5cm/2"), front seat-height (40.5 - 51cm/16 - 20" in 1.3cm/½" increments), rear seat-height (35.5 - 48cm/14 - 19" in 1.3cm/½" increments), seat width (33 - 46cm/13 - 18"), and seat depth (35.5 - 48cm/14 - 19").
Easy-To-Load Transfer
A fold-down back, "L" shaped frame and extremely low frame-weight make vehicle transfers easy.
