Thomas Fetterman Tornado SB (Solid Body) Cane & Crutch Tips, Fits Shafts of 3/4 to 1 inch, Gray, Pair

Thomas Fetterman Tornado SB (Solid Body) Crutch Tips, Fits Crutch Shafts of 3/4 to 1 inch, Gray, Pair: Thomas Fetterman Tornado SB (Solid Body) Tornado Solid Body Crutch Tips are made with high grade rubber for superior flexibility, better ground contact and extremely longer wear. These crutch tips are designed for crutch users who want a tip with great durability at a competitive price. We make them using number one grade natural latex rubber formulated with micronized silica for extreme toughness and wear. Our formula has only 10% clay filler mixed-in versus 40-60% filler with other major brands. Inside the Tornado SB there is a large 1-1/4 inch diameter steel disk that is chemically bonded on both sides to the surrounding rubber body. Because there is no Absorbalite gel inside, the Tornado SB will not protect your shoulders like its famous brother the Tornado GT. However, unlike ordinary tips, our steel disk can not be ejected through the side wall of the tip and cause premature failure. Our Tornado SB tips has a pivoting action that enables more of the bottom of these tips to engage the ground even at steep crutch angles. These tips out-wear ordinary tips 2-3 times over. Tornado SB tips have a 2 inch base diameter and weigh 4.4 ounces each. Made in the USA. Sold as a pair.
