Supporting users up to 160 kg, this robust self-propelling wheelchair features an extra-wide seat, reinforced frame, upgraded wheels, and multiple adjustment options to provide superior stability and independence for everyday mobility.

The Heavy-Duty Karma Martin wheelchair is designed for individuals with mobility limitations caused by injury, disability, illness, aging, or excess weight. Its self-propelling design allows users to move independently, while caregivers can also assist when needed, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments.

The Karma Martin KM-8520X is one of the most durable bariatric wheelchairs available, featuring a sturdy double cross-brace frame that enhances structural strength and stability. Available in seat widths of 50 cm (20") and 55 cm (22"), it accommodates a wide range of users while maintaining excellent comfort and support.

For improved maneuverability and durability, the wheelchair is equipped with upgraded 24-inch quick-release rear wheels and 8-inch front castors fitted with solid puncture-proof tyres. The adjustable rear wheel axle and center-of-gravity settings allow the chair to be customized for optimal performance and stability.

The wheelchair includes height-adjustable flip-back armrests and detachable swing-away footrests, making transfers safer and easier. The tension-adjustable seat and backrest use Velcro adjustment systems to provide personalized support, while the half-folding adjustable backrest reduces overall size for easier storage and transportation.

Additional safety features include wipe-clean flame-retardant upholstery and crash-testing to ISO 7176-19 standards, making it suitable for transportation in adapted vehicles when properly secured.
