DMI 5-Inch Non-Swivel Walker Wheels with Plastic Glide Caps (Pink - One Pair)
The DMI Walker Wheels with Glide Cap Kit is a highly durable mobility enhancement accessory designed to convert standard stationary walkers into smooth-rolling, dual-wheeled mobility units. Engineered specifically for standard adult folding walkers with 1-inch inside diameter aluminum tubing, this aftermarket conversion kit upgrades maneuverability across common domestic and exterior surfaces. This kit includes one pair of vibrant pink non-swivel 5-inch wheels and a matching pair of protective plastic rear glide caps, allowing users to move fluidly without lifting the walker frame with every step.
Design & Structural Features
- Universal Tubing Compatibility: Heavy-duty aluminum shaft extensions are designed to slide cleanly into standard 1-inch inside diameter (ID) walking frames, utilizing standard push-button locking detents.
- Non-Swivel Fixed Alignment: Equipped with dual 5-inch premium nylon wheels locked in a fixed forward-tracking alignment, providing dependable straight-line tracking and lateral stability.
- Low-Friction Rear Glide Caps: Package includes two protective plastic glide caps that install over the walker's rear feet, reducing friction and extending the lifetime of the frame on indoor carpeting and outdoor concrete pathways.
- Vibrant Style Coordination: Finished in a bright, scratch-resistant pink tone, providing personal expression or high-visibility visual contrast for navigating low-light environments.
Product Specifications & Identification
Important Product Characteristics
- Compatibility Notice: These wheels are engineered specifically to match the structural diameter of DMI 500-1044 and 802-1044 series walkers, but they will adapt to any standard brand utilizing a 1-inch internal leg diameter setup.
- Straight-Line Tracking: Because these wheels are fixed (non-swivel), they are explicitly meant for forward and backward linear pathways, which minimizes unexpected veering compared to 360-degree caster alternatives.
- Installation Guide: Simply depress the spring buttons on your walker's existing rubber-tipped front legs, pull the old extensions free, slide these wheel stems upward into the core tubing, and snap the push-buttons securely into your preferred height hole position.
