Fetterman Tornado Rain Tips
Tornado RT (Rain Tips)Tornado Rain Crutch Tips give you the same shock absorbing qualities, superior flexibility, better ground contact and longer wear as our original Tornado Gel Crutch Tips with improved slip-resistance.Tornado Rain Crutch Tips have a thick shock absorbing Absorbalite TM gel core in our Tornado gel tips plus our new gray slip resistant rain disk bonded over the tread making them over 300% more wet slip resistant than any rubber tip we have tested.They have excellent traction on dry surfaces as well. The addition of the Rain Tip will only increase the height of the tip by 3/16". While not slip-proof, the Rain Tip will greatly reduce the number and severity of crutch related falls caused by wet smooth surfaces. If they keep you from falling just once a year wouldn't they be worth the extra cost? Personally, I won't leave home without them!Tornado RT tips have a 2" base diameter and weigh 4.6 ounces each. They are best suited for people who weigh less than 180 pounds but are fine for anybody.Fits crutch shafts from 3/4" to 1"Color: BlackSearch "Fetterman" in Amazon for Fetterman Ice Grip Tips that will help keep you safer on treacherous "black ice" and compacted snow.
