Why Rim Grip Matters

Push rim diameter and texture affect propulsion efficiency. Factory rims fit average needs. Daily users need customization for their specific hands and use patterns.

Aftermarket rim covers are expensive and permanent. Most grip solutions don't account for individual needs or changing requirements.

Users need adjustable grip that adapts to their specific needs and can change as those needs evolve.

How Guard-Tex Improves Mobility

Custom Diameter

Build up rim thickness for easier grip and more efficient propulsion. More surface area means less effort per push.

Gentle on Hands

Cotton construction protects skin during repetitive pushing. Softer than bare metal, more grip than coated rims.

Fully Adjustable

Change your setup as needs evolve. Add grip, remove grip, reposition — all without permanent modification.

Guard-Tex vs. Rim Covers

Rim covers are expensive and permanent. Guard-Tex is affordable and adjustable. Try different configurations without major investment.

How to Customize Your Rims

1

Wrap Push Zones

Focus on rim sections where you push most often. These are your high-contact zones.

2

Build for Comfort

Add layers where you need more grip or cushion. Customize for your specific hand position and push style.

3

Adjust Over Time

Rewrap easily as your needs or preferences change. Zero commitment, full flexibility.

Pro Tips for Wheelchair Users

  • Leave brake zones clear if needed for your setup.
  • Check wraps weekly for wear and rewrap as needed.
  • Caregivers can apply easily — no tools or adhesives required.
