Continuous Enhancements

We pride ourselves in providing the highest quality manual wheelchairs to the Complex Rehab Industry. It is important to continuously improve upon our chairs and options
selection to ensure we are maintaining our Better by Design standard. A few of our most recent enhancements to the Catalyst line include: our new cross brace
design for increased rigidity and durability, black fasteners for aesthetics, cambering one-arm drive system, reclining backrest option and Performance Caster Housing to give you up to 4″ of seat dump.

Power X-Hinge

The Catalyst’s patented Power X-Hinge revolutionizes how the cross brace folds within the frame by acting as an extensible link that expands and contracts when the frame folds and unfolds.
This patented device allows for a unique geometrical frame design that is more structurally sound than other designs while also making it much easier to fold and unfold, every single time.

Between-The-Rails Design

On typical above-the-rails designs all of the forces from the ground up, into the chair, and from the user down, through the chair, are transferred into the cross braces.
In order to effectively deal with these loads other manufacturers design heavy cross-braces. The Catalyst’s unique “between-the-rails” design transfers these
loads from the cross brace to the vertical side frames. The geometry of the side frames allows them to support far greater loads.

Structural Integrity

Other wheelchairs rely on the tension of the seat sling to solidify their frame when opened. However, after a few months, the upholstery experiences a natural stretching
and your chair is “loosey-goosey”. The Power X-hinge eliminates the need for the seat sling to be a structural part of your frame. A Catalyst is solid even without upholstery.
This ensures a more rigid and responsive ride.

Swing Away Front Hangers

Enjoy the simplicity and strength of Catalyst’s patented swing-away footrest hangers. The most intuitive hanger on the market allows you to attach and detach from
any angle by simply pulling up or pushing down. It doesn’t get any easier than this. The tapered engagement keeps the footrests snug and rattle-free. Ki Mobility is the only 
manufacturer to offer a Lifetime Warranty** on the front hangers. Available in 60, 70, 80 and 90°.

Height Adjustable Armrest

The tapered, noise free, no-rattle design of the height adjustable armrest produces a rock solid feel that is functional, light weight and easy to use. Like many of the
options and accessories on Catalyst these were designed to be durable and user friendly. This is just one of many armrest options available. Visit the specific product pages to view all available armrest options.
