Garcia 1880 Ferrule For Walker 22mm R. 822122

This walker tip is used in walkers and rollators. It is manufactured in grey. These tips are reinforced with a metal washer inside the base, which prevents the crutch tube from damaging or perforating its interior.

The tip is a very important element of the walker. Its manufacturing material is rubber. They help the walker have more grip on the ground, making it safer to use, and provide greater balance and stability.

It is advisable to check the tip periodically, since it is the part of the walker that suffers the most wear. If the walker is used frequently, the base of the tip wears down and loses adhesion. At this point, it is advisable to change the ferrule so as not to lose security. In the same way, it must be taken into account if the neck of the ferrule has cracks and the rigidity of the material with which it is made, since if it is very rigid it can slip.

On the other hand, it is also a good idea to check if there are any gaps between the tip and the tube of the walker, since the tip could come off and cause a fall.

The ferrules are placed very easily. You would simply have to lift the walker, remove the worn tip and place the new one at the ends.
