Skil-Care Sheepskin Cover for Lateral Body Supports
Skil-Care Synthetic Sheepskin Covers for Lateral Support Pads
Soft Moisture-Wicking Fleece, Friction-Reducing Protection, Latex-Free Construction, Machine Washable Maintenance, Universal & Side-Specific Options, and 6-Month Manufacturer Warranty
Maintaining skin integrity and upper-body alignment is a top priority for individuals using wheelchair lateral supports. Skil-Care Synthetic Sheepskin Covers provide a plush, moisture-wicking protective layer designed to cushion lateral positioning hardware and reduce skin shear during extended seating. Suitable for clinical care, physical therapy routines, and home care environments, these covers cushion contact points to prevent friction and moisture buildup.
Crafted from hypoallergenic, 100% latex-free synthetic sheepskin, these covers absorb moisture and facilitate air movement around delicate tissue. Universal models are shaped to fit non-elevated lateral pads in 12.75-inch and 14-inch sizes, while arm-specific variants are tailored to fit elevated arm supports on either the left or right side. Machine washable on a gentle cycle, they offer low-maintenance hygiene backed by a 6-month limited warranty.
Key Performance Features & Benefit Highlights
- Friction & Shear Reduction: Ultra-soft synthetic sheepskin surface minimizes rubbing and skin tears against rigid lateral positioning pads.
- Moisture-Wicking Fleece Fabric: Promotes airflow and draws dampness away from the body to keep the user cool, dry, and comfortable.
- Tailored Fit Configurations: Available in universal non-elevated styles as well as anatomical left and right elevated arm-support contours.
- 100% Latex-Free Material: Hypoallergenic fleece composition protects users with latex allergies or severe skin sensitivities.
- Easy Machine Washable Care: Designed for convenient laundering on a gentle cycle to preserve hygiene across daily care routines.
- 6-Month Limited Warranty: Manufactured to demanding standards and backed by Skil-Care for peace of mind.
Mobility Aid & Support Insight: Continuous contact with rigid polyurethane or vinyl lateral supports can cause skin breakdown over time due to shear forces and moisture accumulation. Soft synthetic sheepskin covers cushion these high-friction points while managing moisture, keeping seating systems comfortable and supportive.
