Adjustable Aluminum Underarm Crutches KY-925L

Adjustable Aluminum Underarm Crutches KY925L

The Kaiyang KY-925L is a standard pair of lightweight, adjustable aluminum axillary (underarm) crutches widely used for post-injury recovery, post-surgical support, and lower-limb mobility assistance.

It features a double-extruded center tube for structural reinforcement and comes in three primary sizes: Small (S), Medium (M), and Large (L).

Key Features

• Lightweight Aluminum Construction: Features a double-extruded center tube for added weight-bearing strength without excessive weight.
• Tool-Free Adjustability: Uses push-pin (push-button) height adjustments for overall height and wing-nut bolts for handgrip adjustment.
• Comfort & Traction: Equipped with thick underarm pads, contoured handgrips, and jumbo non-skid rubber/vinyl tips to prevent slipping.
• Latex-Free Materials: Safe for individuals with latex allergies or sensitive skin.

Crucial Safety and Operating Guidelines

• Weight Distribution via Hands, Not Armpits: Body weight must be supported entirely by the hands gripping the handles, never by resting the armpits directly on the top pads. Prolonged pressure in the axilla can compress the brachial plexus nerves and blood vessels, leading to conditions like “crutch palsy.”
• Proper Sizing: The top of the crutch should sit approximately two to three finger-widths below the anterior axillary fold (armpit) when standing upright. Handgrips should be adjusted so the elbow bends at a comfortable 15 to 30-degree angle.
• Inspect Rubber Tips: Regularly check the base rubber tips for wear, cracking, or thinning to maintain proper friction and prevent sudden slips.
