Technical Specifications

Grip Footplate Pad, by GRIP Solutions Buyer’s Guide

The Grip Footplate Pad by GRIP Solutions is a custom-fit adhesive overlay designed to enhance traction on manual or power wheelchair footplates. Ideal for users with limited sensation or motor control, it provides a secure grip platform, preventing slipping and improving foot support during propulsion or braking maneuvers.

GRIP Solutions Footplate Pad High‑Friction Surface

Constructed from a durable, coarse-texture material, the Grip Footplate Pad improves traction for both bare feet and shoes. This reduces in-scoot foot slippage and helps maintain consistent weight distribution. Enhanced grip supports users in maintaining balance during transfers or propulsion.

Wheelchair Compatibility 

Available in pre-cut templates for common wheelchair brands, the Grip Pad can also be trimmed to fit bespoke footplate shapes. Adhesive backing ensures a snug and wrinkle-free installation. A custom template ensures maximal surface contact and safety.

Grip Pad for Wheelchair Footplate Thin Material

At only a few millimeters thick, the wheelchair footplate grip pad adds negligible height or weight to the footplate. This preserves original foot clearance and doesn’t interfere with transportation. Users enjoy improved safety without bulk.

Self-Adhesive Installation

With peel-and-stick installation, the Grip Solutions footplate pad adheres securely without requiring tools. It bonds firmly to metal or composite footplates, resisting peeling under foot pressure and friction. Once fixed in place, it stays stable for extended periods.

Grip Footplate Pad Water-Resistant and Easy to Clean

Made from moisture-resistant materials, the Grip Pad withstands spills, sweat, and cleaning agents. It can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. The non-absorbent design prevents mold, stains, and odor buildup.

Durable Wear Resistance

Engineered for daily use, the wheelchair footplate pad resists abrasion, fading, and puncture under repeated foot activity. The material retains grip even with continuous pressure. This longevity makes the pad a low-maintenance, high-impact upgrade.
