Product Measurement and Sizing Guide
| Measurement | Details |
|---|---|
| 1 - Seat Depth | Measure from the most posterior point of the body to the inside of the knee, minus at least two inches. Some prefer more leg overhang to make room for their hand when lifting their leg |
| 2 - Back Height | Measured from the seat base to the top of the wheelchair back. Depends on how much upper back support is needed, and also affects freedom for the upper body to rotate. |
| 3 - Rear Seat to Floor | Measurement from the ground to the rear seat edge. Relative to the front seat-to-floor dimension, this determines the rearward slope ("dump" or "squeeze") of the wheelchair seat |
| 4 - Hanger Angle | Determines how far the toes extend away from the body, measured from the horizontal. A tighter angle allows the wheelchair to turn around in less space. Depends in part on ability of the knee to bend towards the perpendicular |
| 5 - Seat Width | Determined by the widest point of the body from knee to hip, plus an inch to ensure room to move. Consider bulk of clothing, particularly a heavy winter coat, if relevant |
| 6 - Wheel Camber | Angle of the wheel relative to the vertical. More camber improves stability and agility, but also limits ability to pass through narrow spaces. A typical daily wheelchair uses three degrees of camber. |
| 7 - Front Seat to Floor | Measure the leg from the back of the knee to the sole of the foot. Then subtract the thickness of the cushion when it is compressed. Next, add a minimum of two inches for footrest clearance. Do not add the footrest clearance if the wheelchair will be foot-propelled® |
| 8 - Footrest Width | Measure from the inside of each legrest tubing the distance or desired distance between legrests |
| 9 - Center of Gravity | Measure from the front of the seat back post to the center of the rear axel. |
| 10 - Seat to Footrest Length | Measure from the edge of the seat upholstery to the top rear of the footrest. |
| 11 - Backrest Angle | Measure the the angle of the back post to the floor. Ninety degrees will be perpendicular to the floor, to approximate the angle from the back post to the seat, subtract two degrees from measurment for every .5" of dump |

Invacare Tracer SX5 Manual Wheelchair Buyer’s Guide
The Invacare Tracer SX5 Manual Wheelchair is a durable, low-maintenance mobility solution engineered for independent users and caregivers alike. Built to withstand frequent daily use, this standard mobility platform combines structural rigidity with practical performance. Its time-tested design focuses on providing dependable transportation and independent propulsion for individuals looking for a reliable, everyday manual wheelchair.
Tracer Heavy-Duty Frame Construction
The core structure of the wheelchair features a robust carbon steel frame that delivers exceptional longevity and support. This high-strength frame ensures that the Tracer maintains its structural integrity under regular use, minimizing flex and providing a stable ride. Additionally, the frame includes a dual-axle design, allowing for quick adjustments to change the seat-to-floor height from a standard profile to a lower hemi position to facilitate foot propulsion.
Standard Dual-Embossed Vinyl Upholstery
Comfort and hygiene are addressed through the heavy-duty, dual-embossed vinyl upholstery lining the seat and backrest. This standard material is selected for its superior resistance to tearing and stretching over time, ensuring consistent support for the user. The smooth, non-porous surface of the vinyl makes it incredibly easy for caregivers to wipe clean and sanitize, maintaining excellent hygiene with minimal upkeep.
Invacare Low-Maintenance Component Design
Every element of this Invacare mobility device is engineered to reduce the need for frequent servicing and maintenance. The wheelchair is equipped with urethane tires mounted on composite rear wheels, alongside no-flex front casters. This setup ensures that the tires never go flat and roll smoothly across both indoor flooring and outdoor pavements. The integrated wheel locks are easy to engage, providing secure parking when transferring in or out of the chair.
Flexible Armrest and Footrest Configurations
To accommodate different daily activities and transfer methods, the wheelchair offers several customizable armrest options. Users can choose desk-length arms to easily slide closer to tables and desks, or full-length arms for maximized forearm support. Additionally, the swing-away footrests can be removed entirely or adjusted in length, clearing the front area of the chair to ensure safe, unhindered standing transfers.
Convenient Manual Folding for Transport
Transporting and storing the chair is simplified by its lightweight, manual folding cross-brace mechanism. With a simple upward pull on the center of the seat upholstery, the frame collapses side-to-side into a compact profile that fits easily into car trunks or narrow storage closets. This makes it an ideal option for users who travel frequently or families needing a secondary mobility aid for outings.
Invacare Tracer SX5 Manual Wheelchair Review
The Invacare Tracer SX5 Manual Wheelchair stands out as a highly dependable and practical choice in the standard mobility category. By combining a heavy-duty steel frame with low-maintenance components and an easily cleanable vinyl seat, it delivers excellent durability for long-term use. Its flexible configuration options and straightforward manual folding design make the Tracer a smart, hassle-free investment for enhancing everyday mobility and independence.
