GUA7832-8 Footpiece Brake Wheel 3 Auto Stop 1 Tube Guardian
- The Guardian wheelbrake attachments are placed on the rear legs of a walker that has wheels on the front. Without wheelbrakes the rear legs of the walker have to slide or glide across the floor. The wheelbrake attachments make it easier for the patient to roll the wheeled walker forward and will also roll across rough terrain that would normally interfere with the rubber tips or even the various glide attachments that are normally used on the rear legs of a walker. The wheels on the wheelbrake mechanisms are attached to plunger devices at the bottom of the rear legs of the walker. The braking action of the wheelbrakes are accomplished by the patient pressing downward on the handgrips of the walker thereby making the rubber tips on the leg contact the surface of the floor providing the braking action. The wheelbrakes fit Guardian walkers with one inch tubing.
