WheelchairParts.Net Big Button Quick Release Axle 1/2 x 5 1/4 in
The WheelchairParts.Net Big Button Quick Release Axle 1/2 in x 5 1/4 in is a stainless steel rear-wheel axle with an oversized black push button. The larger button gives the thumb or palm a bigger target, which makes releasing the wheel easier for hands with little strength. This version is 134 mm long and 1/2 inch in diameter. Four other lengths are offered, and axles are sold one at a time.

WheelchairParts.Net Big Button Quick Release Axle 1/2 in x 5 1/4 in: common questions
Why choose a big button quick release axle?
The button is larger than on a standard axle, so it can be pressed with the thumb pad or palm. That helps users with limited finger strength or dexterity.
Is the Big Button axle sold as a pair?
No. It is sold individually. A chair with two quick-release rear wheels needs two axles.
How much is the Big Button quick release axle?
The guide price is USD 28.50 per axle at the retailer. We confirm the price for the length you need in your quote.
