Reinforced Strength with Precision Leg Positioning
Get maximum structural stability and precise lower-limb support with the Titus Bariatric Wheelchair Series with elevating legrests. Built for users and caregivers who need extra reinforcement during daily, high-use routines, the industrial carbon steel frame features a double-reinforced build, dual cross-braces, and heavy-duty steel gussets welded at every critical weight-bearing point to prevent frame flex. Weight capacity varies by seat width and armrest configuration — see the specifications table below for the exact rating on your selection.
The standout feature of this model is its mechanical elevating legrests, paired with wide-profile comfort seating available from 22" to 30". The leg riggings include built-in plush, padded calf rests that let users or companions raise and lock the angle precisely for optimal lower-limb positioning. Maintenance-free composite mag rear wheels and flat-free urethane tires keep the ride steady across sidewalks and indoor floors alike.
Key Features
- Dual Cross-Brace Frame: Reinforced steel joints and heavy-duty gussets distribute heavy loads uniformly for zero-flex stability.
- Mechanical Elevating Legrests: Height-adjustable calf pads lift and lock smoothly without tools for customized lower-limb alignment.
- Anti-Sag Heavy-Duty Upholstery: Double-stitched, dual-embossed flame-retardant black nylon resists stretching under continuous wear.
- Removable Armrest Assemblies: Lift away completely for quick, unobstructed lateral transfers and easy access to workspaces.
- Flat-Free Polyurethane Tires: 24" composite rear mag wheels and 8" x 2" solid rubber front casters eliminate puncture risk.
- Premium Silver-Vein Powder Coat: Industrial finish resists chips, scratches, and everyday scuffs while staying easy to sanitize.
- Push-to-Lock Wheel Locks: Accessible manual lever locks for dependable stationary positioning.
Equipment Specialist Insight: The Titus ELR series sets a strong structural standard for high-capacity manual transit. Many wide-profile chairs struggle with alignment drift or frame flex over time, but the Titus uses reinforced steel gussets and dual underside crossbars to hold a rigid tracking line. The real day-to-day advantage is in the mechanical leg joints — caregivers can incrementally adjust the lift height to support posture changes, while the removable armrests let the chair pull flush to any desk or table.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why does weight capacity vary between the Desk Arm and Full Arm versions?
A: Capacity is rated per width and armrest configuration together, not by width alone. For example, the 26" Desk Arm model is rated to 700 lbs, while the 26" Full Arm model is rated to 500 lbs. Always check the rating for the specific width and armrest combination you're ordering.
Q: How do the elevating legrests help during extended use?
A: Staying in one fixed posture for long stretches can create pressure points. The mechanical leg extensions let a user or caregiver raise the lower limbs to a custom horizontal angle, making it easier to shift positions and ease strain during longer outings.
Q: Can the armrest assemblies be completely removed for close workspace access?
A: Yes. Both the Desk Arm and Full Arm configurations use a quick-release latching system, so the arms detach completely from the frame and the chair can pull flush against desks, tables, or countertops.
