Product Description

Drive Medical 10948C Manual Mobility Wheelchair with Fixed Full Arms

The Drive Medical 10948C is a rugged, dependable manual mobility wheelchair engineered to provide steady posture support, user safety, and effortless daily handling. Constructed with a heavy-duty carbon steel frame finished in a scratch-resistant silver vein powder coating, this 18-inch mobility wheelchair delivers a balanced foundation for routine movement across home environments, medical clinics, rehabilitation units, and assisted living facilities. Supporting user weights up to 250 lbs with structural durability that gives users long-term confidence, it provides an agile, low-maintenance platform for both self-propulsion and caregiver assistance.

The seating system centers around a spacious 18" wide by 16" deep seat upholstered in breathable, lightweight black nylon that resists tearing and wipes clean easily. Fixed full-length padded armrests deliver continuous forearm cushioning and steady leverage when sitting down, standing up, or completing caregiver-assisted lateral transfers. For unobstructed entry and exit, the chair includes tool-free swing-away detachable footrests fitted with durable composite footplates. Smooth, quiet rolling is achieved through maintenance-free solid urethane tires mounted on composite wheels, paired with responsive push-to-lock wheel brakes, a compact 12.5-inch folded profile, and an integrated rear seatback pocket for personal essentials.
