Some wheelchair brands use sizes and shapes of tubing that require an adapter or don’t have a backrest bar. A minimum of 25mm is needed between backrest and backbar to attach a Phoenix bag. If an aftermarket backrest is used you may not have the minimum 25mm clearance and require a low clearance adapter.
To check the size of adapter you require please use our downloadable Measuring Tool and follow these instructions Measuring Tools Instructions.
If you have a folding framed chair, no back rest bar or use a Kuschall K, Apex Carbon, Panthera X or Aria you will require our Universal Adapter.
Please note Phoenix System and All in One Twinset Lite compatibility options include adapters. For example Quickie/Sopur Nitrum compatibility option includes the Nitrum adapter. Please email us at info@phoenixinstinct.com if you need assistance.
RGK SUB 4 – As SUB4 chairs are made to measure it can be difficult for us to make a one size fits all compatibility option. Sub 4 chairs tend to have either a 19mm or 22mm round tubed diameter back bar so we have made up a kit which will give you options to fit these bar sizes. Please note you must have a space of at least 30mm between bar and backrest to use this adaptor kit. If you don’t or have a different bar diameter you will require a universal adaptor.
