DMI Universal Walker Ski Glide Attachments (Fits 7/8" and 1" Tubing - One Pair)
The DMI Universal Walker Ski Glide Attachments are heavy-duty, friction-reducing mobility accessories designed to improve the maneuverability of folding walkers. This universal version is engineered with an adaptive dual-fit neck that slides seamlessly into both 7/8-inch and 1-inch inside diameter aluminum frame legs, offering broader compatibility than standard single-size tips. By providing an ultra-smooth, upward-curved surface area, these glides allow a walking frame to slide effortlessly over common residential and outdoor obstacles, eliminating the tiring arm strain of constantly lifting the frame forward.
