DMI Walker Ski Glide Attachments 1" (2pk)

The DMI Walker Ski Glide Attachments are high-density, friction-reducing mobility accessories designed to streamline the movement of standard folding walkers. Engineered to fit standard 1-inch inside diameter aluminum frame legs, these durable glides replace traditional rubber tips or temporary tennis ball coverings. By establishing a smooth, upward-curved surface area, they allow the frame to slide effortlessly across indoor carpets, tile, exterior sidewalks, and concrete surfaces, eliminating the physical strain of lifting the walker frame forward during use.

Design & Structural Features

• Smooth-Sliding Ski Profile: Features an upward-curved front edge designed to easily clear uneven flooring joins, threshold strips, rug edges, and minor outdoor surface variations.

• High-Density Composite Material: Molded from heavy-duty, long-lasting plastic built to resist continuous abrasive wear against rough outdoor concrete or paved pathways.

• Friction-Reducing Mechanics: Replaces high-traction rubber bottom tips to allow smooth, continuous forward push tracking, which reduces user arm strain and speeds up overall walking efficiency.

• Universal Friction Fit: Designed to slide directly into standard 1-inch diameter walker leg extensions, securing tightly via an integrated tensioning screw system to avoid spinning or slipping off during transit.

Product Specifications & Identification

Important Product Characteristics

• Rear Leg Recommendation: For optimal steering control and safety, these ski glides should be installed exclusively on the rear two legs of a walking frame, ideally paired with rolling caster wheels on the front two legs.

• Latex-Free Construction: Manufactured without any natural rubber latex, making this accessory completely safe for individuals with sensitive skin profiles or synthetic allergies.

• Simple Hardware Installation: To mount, remove the old rubber tips from the rear legs, slide the hollow neck of the ski glide over the open metal leg, and tighten the small integrated cross-head screw to clamp it securely in place.
