Medline Standard Aluminum Crutches, Adult
Model: Medline Standard Aluminum Push-Button Crutches, Adult (SKU MDSV80535H1)
Availability: Ships from EnhDme
Dependable, Everyday Crutch Support
A crutch that's the wrong height can create as much of a balance problem as it solves. The Medline Standard Aluminum Push-Button Crutches in Adult sizing are built specifically for users between 5'2" and 5'10", giving most adults a properly fitted crutch right out of the box.
A double extruded center tube provides load-bearing strength exactly where it's needed most, while durable rivets secure the aluminum tubing from the inside, offering more stability than plastic connectors. An I-beam construction helps reduce the wobbliness that can come with standard crutches, and a long, virtually unbreakable stair deflector helps protect against slipping on stairs. Skid-resistant rubber tips provide good traction, and the crutches arrive fully accessorized with no assembly required.

Getting the right size matters more with crutches than it might seem — using the wrong height can cause underarm pressure injuries or poor posture over time. When sizing axillary crutches, first measure from the ground to just below the armpit; the crutch cushion should sit two to three inches below the armpit and should not touch it when standing straight. For hand grip height, keep the arm at your side with a natural bend at the elbow and measure from the ground to the center of the wrist. This standard Adult size fits users between 5'2" and 5'10" with an adjustable range of 44" to 52" — if actual height falls outside that range, Medline's Adult Tall (5'10"-6'6") or Youth (4'6"-5'2") sizes are worth checking instead.
