QUICKIE Nitrum Hybrid - Rigid Wheelchair

QUICKIE Nitrum Hybrid - Rigid Wheelchair

From: based on assessment.

Ultra-stiff frame design and an unrivalled rigid ride

The Nitrum® Hybrid enhances our lightest adjustable aluminium chair with a powerful frame design offering extraordinary stability and a higher user weight up to 140 kg. Raised lower tubes minimise the pack size and improve transportability. All Nitrum wheelchairs are for users who value pushing efficiency and lightweight design. A revolutionary design that minimises propulsion effort whilst maximising movement.

Unmatched rigid ride
This is innovative engineering at its best. We employ state-of-the-art materials and principles to minimise weight and maximise strength, so you need less energy to propel. The Nitrum Hybrid with a more bold design starts from 8.4 kg.

Patented oval frame tubing
With fewer stress points due to its elongated sides, our unique oval tubing is stronger than round as it's less likely to flex under pressure. It's also lighter as the shape uses less material.

Premium 7020 Aluminium
Sculpted from high-strength 7020 Aluminium, the frame is specially heat-treated using our patented ShapeLoc technology, so the tubing can be significantly thinner and lighter without any sacrifice to its strength.

Hand welded
Frame clamped castor links and cross-tubes can increase weight and cause energy loss through vibration. The NITRUM is hand-welded into one-complete frame, so you get a stiffer, lighter ride.

Backrest bracket
The forged aluminium backrest bracket is extremely stiff,so it's significantly more energy efficient without sacrificing the adjustability of the backrest angle or height.

Patented castor-link
Instead of multiple parts welded, the castor-link is one hollow-forged component. Stronger, lighter and completely adjustable, the castor angle (1) and height (2) can be changed to improve handling whilst you're in the wheelchair. The castor link length and angle are also personally-tailored to your wheelchair, for the very-best handling, turning and propulsion efficiency.

The first Integrated LEDs with removable battery.
Mounted on both castor arms and with 3 modes (high, low and blink), the integrated LED's will light-up your night. The power pack provides up-to 4 hours of run time and can be easily detached for recharging or to save you 110g weight. How’s that for bright?

The Pro options for experienced users
During the development of the Nitrum series, we made it our goal to optimise each component in terms of weight savings and to achieve maximum rigidity. The Nitrum Hybrid Pro takes this principle to extremes. Its frame is characterized by the fixed welded backrest and fixed welded axle which save weight, increase the frame-stiffness and reduce moving parts. The formula is simple: Less moving parts mean less play, less maintenance and a lower weight.
