Karman 24 lbs LT-980 Ultra Lightweight Wheelchair Black

Karman Healthcare continues to innovate and pioneer the ultra lightweight wheelchair category by offering the LT-980 series. Weighing only 24 pounds without the footrest, the LT-980 series pushes the boundaries of design, function, and appeal for non-custom, ultra lightweight wheelchairs. Utilizing the lightest yet strongest aluminum, the LT-980 is equipped with standard features suitable for almost any daily wheelchair user looking to save weight while maintaining a certain budget.

The foldable, compact frame allows any family member or companion to lift and store the item just about anywhere. Comfort is also a key consideration in the design, with a padded nylon upholstery that is easy to clean and maintain. Additionally, the padded desk-length armpads provide added comfort when sitting at a desk or table.

The height-adjustable footrest allows for a near-perfect fit for users between five feet and up to six feet tall. The natural-fit handrims offer a more contoured feel, and the solid, polyurethane 22-inch rear wheels and 6-inch front casters enable the chair to be used on a variety of surfaces.

The LT-980 series boasts several additional features, including a seatbelt for added safety, a built-in pouch on the back upholstery, and an easy-to-use removable height-adjustable footrest. The solid polyurethane 22-inch rear wheels and 6-inch front casters provide a smooth and stable ride, while the 18-inch by 16-inch seat width ensures a comfortable fit.

The ultra-lightweight design, weighing only 24 pounds without the footrest, makes the LT-980 series easy to transport and maneuver. The adjustable height footplates with heel loops provide additional support and customization, and the weight capacity of 250 pounds ensures that the chair can accommodate a wide range of users.

The fixed armrests with wide, cushioned arm pads offer both comfort and support, and the overall length of 28 inches and folded height of 29 inches make the LT-980 series compact and easy to store. The swing-in/away removable footrest and adjustable height footplates with heel loops add to the chair's versatility.

The backrest pouch, attached to the upholstery, provides additional storage space, and the folding backrest and folding seat make the LT-980 series easy to transport and store. The 6-inch by 1-inch polyurethane solid front casters and the 22-inch by 1 3/8-inch flat-free polyurethane tires with high tread ensure a smooth and stable ride on a variety of surfaces.

The braking mechanism is conveniently located on the left-hand side, within easy reach of the person sitting in the chair, allowing the user to activate the handbrakes at the wheel if needed. The LT-980 series from Karman Healthcare continues to push the boundaries of ultra-lightweight wheelchair design, offering a product that combines functionality, comfort, and portability.
